The Palestinian Prisoners Club warned that Adnan, who was arrested by the Israeli security forces in February, was in critical condition and could die at any moment.
The ceremony was held at Magel-Nitzan Prison, a facility for incarcerated individuals with cognitive disabilities in need of extra support.
