US EditionUnited Kingdom: Three Hunger Strikers From the Palestine Group Action in Danger of Imminent Death
Supporters and medical staff protested for urgent care as hunger strikers linked to Palestine Action face critical health risks after nearly 50 days without food, activist groups said.
- This past week, Prisoners for Palestine warned the hunger strikers will die unless the Government intervenes urgently, as six prisoners linked to the Filton 24 launched the hunger strike to protest their detention and treatment.
- The hunger strike began on November 2, Balfour Day, when six Filton 24 prisoners protested their treatment, Palestine Action's proscription, and demanded immediate bail.
- At HMP Bronzefield, NHS A&E doctor Olivia Brandon said police dragged her by her hood, causing unconsciousness, and she saw an ECG pulse of 12 BPM while the prison refused ambulance aid.
- Surrey Police said officers arrested three people, including a 29-year-old accused of assault causing grievous bodily harm, and two hospitalised hunger strikers, Amu Gib and Kamran Ahmed.
- Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said the `rules and procedures` are being followed, as the Palestine Action proscription prompted widespread arrests and international solidarity including rallies in Malaysia, while marchers chanted `Let them die, let them die.` at the Stop the Boats march in Wakefield.
