Hana Shalabi (Arabic: هناء يحيى شلبي; born 2 July 1982) is a Palestinian prisoner in Israel, held in administrative detention.

Shalabi had also been detained previously in 2009 and released two years later in October, 2011 during the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange between Israel and Hamas.

[citation needed] She remained in continuous detention for 25 months before being released in the prisoner swap deal between Hamas and Israel in October 2011.

[citation needed] An Israeli Army spokesman commented that Shalabi was "a global jihad-affiliated operative" that "posed a threat to the area" and that she assaulted the soldiers who arrested her.

[3] Her father, Yahya, stated Shalabi was emulating prisoner Khader Adnan, who ended his 66-day hunger strike on 21 February 2012.

PHR Executive Director Ran Cohen said she had lost 14 kilograms (31 lbs) since the hunger strike began and that she was in massive pain.

The PHR-Israel along with other human rights groups have questioned the "adequacy and timeliness" of her treatment by the Israeli prison authorities concerning her health conditions.

[4] The human rights organization Amnesty International demanded Israel either prosecute or release Shalabi, citing her "risk of death.

"[1] Shalabi ended her hunger strike in a deal that would see her exiled to the Gaza Strip for three years in return for the termination of her administrative detention.
