TL;DR Summary

Two Palestine Action activists, Heba Muraisi and Kamran Ahmed, have ended a 73-day hunger strike while on remand in UK custody, joined by other detainees who received medical re-feeding under doctor supervision. The protest demanded the group’s ban be lifted, the closure of an Israeli-owned defence firm, and improvements to prison conditions. The government has not commented; trials are delayed by backlogs, and hunger strikes are treated as protected protests under human rights law, with care provided when necessary.
