Hunger Strikes Push to the Edge of Survival in UK Palestine Action Case
Originally Published 1 day ago — by Al Jazeera
Eight Palestine Action activists in the UK started hunger strikes; three are currently fasting for 63–70 days with five having ended for health reasons, while Lewie Chiaramello continues on alternating days due to type 1 diabetes. They demand bail and a fair trial, reversal of the group’s terrorist designation, and the closure of Elbit Systems sites alongside an end to prison censorship. Medical estimates say survival without food is typically 45–61 days, so the remaining strikers face life-threatening risk, prompting international concern and calls for proper medical care.
