According to Milena Veselinovic of Al Jazeera, the vigil was organized to mark the start of a global campaign, with organizers aiming to raise awareness about the issue and put pressure on Israeli authorities to release the prisoners. "We want to highlight the plight of Palestinian prisoners who are being held without charge or trial," said an organizer, who wished to remain anonymous. "This is a human rights issue that affects not just Palestinians, but also the Israeli people and the international community as a whole."

Administrative detention has been a contentious issue in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for decades, with many human rights groups and international organizations condemning it as a form of arbitrary detention. Under this system, individuals can be held for up to six months without being charged or tried, with the possibility of renewal for additional periods of time. This has led to widespread criticism, with many arguing that it is a tool used by the Israeli government to silence dissent and suppress Palestinian activism.

The issue of Palestinian prisoners has been a long-standing one, with many high-profile cases drawing international attention. In recent years, there have been reports of abuse and mistreatment of Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails, including allegations of torture and mistreatment. According to a report by Al Jazeera, more than 90 Palestinians have died in Israeli jails due to abuse and mistreatment.

The vigil in London was part of a growing movement to raise awareness about the issue of Palestinian prisoners and to put pressure on Israeli authorities to release them. Organizers said they were inspired by the global campaign to free Palestinian prisoners, which has been ongoing for several years. "We want to join the global movement to free Palestinian prisoners and to highlight the human rights abuses that are taking place in Israeli jails," said the organizer.

The current status of the Palestinian prisoners remains uncertain, with many facing indefinite detention without charge or trial. The Israeli government has maintained that administrative detention is necessary to maintain national security, but critics argue that it is a tool used to suppress Palestinian activism and silence dissent. As the global campaign to free Palestinian prisoners continues to gain momentum, it remains to be seen whether Israeli authorities will take steps to address the issue and release the prisoners.
