Palestinian Fatma Zed weeps as she holds a photo of her son Ahmed Zed, 17, who is held at Megiddo prison in northern Israel, during a demonstration demanding the release of Palestinian prisoners being held in Israeli jails, in the West Bank town of Nablus, Sunday, Aug. 15, 2004. About 1,600 Palestinian prisoners began a hunger strike Sunday to protest conditions in Israeli jails, but Israel`s Public Security Minister has said they can `starve to death ` before he agrees to ease their restrictions.
