The case of the Palestinian detainee, Zakaria Al-Zubaidi, sparked an interaction among the pioneers of social media platforms, who praised his sacrifice for the sake of his country, so what is his story?
The events of the story of the detainee al-Zubaidi’s sacrifice go back to what was reported by the Palestinian Authority for Detainees and Ex-Prisoners’ Affairs, where al-Zubaidi submitted an urgent request to the occupation prison administration to donate his bone marrow to the cancer-sick detainee Walid Daqqa.
Al-Daqqa was recently transferred to the hospital after his health deteriorated, after he was informed that he had leukemia, but the diagnosis revealed that he was suffering from another cancer and needed to undergo a bone marrow transplant.
The Israeli occupation forces arrested Al-Zubaidi in 2019 and charged him with standing behind a number of attacks and inciting the occupation, and he was sentenced to 5 years in prison.
As for the prisoner Walid Daqqa, he is from the town of Baqa al-Gharbiya in the lands of 1948. He has been detained since 1986 and has been sentenced to life imprisonment on charges of kidnapping and killing an Israeli soldier. He was one of the detainees before the Oslo agreement.
During his years of detention, he wrote many books and studies, and as a result he faced several penalties, such as solitary confinement and arbitrary transfer.
The Palestinians interacted with the position of the prisoner Al-Zubaidi with the prisoner Walid Daqqa, as Sanaa Salameh, the wife of the prisoner Walid Daqqa, tweeted, saying - as stated in the Shabakat program (29/12/2022) - “When our comrades carry the pain and weight of life on our behalf, the names become fleeting except for friendship to the core.” ".
For her part, the activist Majdouline Hassouna wrote, "The patience and endurance of the old prisoners in the occupation prisons terrifies me, and I almost suffocate every time Walid Daqqa, who was arrested in 1986, years before my birth, crossed my mind. Walid must go out for treatment so that his fate will not be like Nasser Abu Hamid."
As for the singer Hanin, she asked, "What have you not presented to the homeland yet, Zakaria?"
Activist Zaher Sabah commented, "Even in their families, their giving and love for Palestine has not and will not stop."
For his part, activist Karim Joudeh wrote, "Zakaria lived all his days with urgent requests for someone else to live."
