However, the sudden death of the 31-year old, whose mother has been in Israeli jails since October 2019 and has yet to remain in detention for two more years, has sparked online calls and a petition, calling on Israel to release Khalida so she can mourn the death of her daughter and have the support of her family amid such a difficult time.

Suha was a senior research and advocacy officer at Al-Haq human rights organizations based in Ramallah. Her mother is a prominent political leader associated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and she was elected to the Palestinian Legislative Council in 2006. Khalida has been in Israeli administrative detention for 21 months.
