According to a CommonDreams.org article, "Palestinian Prisoner Hisham Abu Hawash Ends Hunger Strike After Deal With Israel"

Palestinians and human rights defenders around the world on Tuesday cheered reports that Hisham Abu Hawash—who has been imprisoned in Israel without charge for 16 months—is ending a 141-day hunger strike after reaching an agreement with Israeli officials.

Does habeas corpus exist in Israel, and under what terms can a Palestinian in Israeli detention petition for habeas corpus? If a non-citizen is detained by Israel is there any limitation that triggers their release, or limits the state from detaining them indefinitely? How was Hisham Abu Hawash detained for 16 months without charge -- did he not raise such a petition?
