Hunger strikers from Palestine Action in the United Kingdom have initiated legal proceedings against the government, alleging a failure to uphold prison safety policies amid a prolonged hunger strike. The activists, several of whom have been hospitalized due to severe health deterioration, sent a pre-action letter to Justice Secretary David Lammy demanding urgent intervention. The letter, backed by over 800 doctors, warns of the strikers' escalating medical risks and calls for immediate discussions to address their demands, which include the de-proscription of their group and the closure of defense companies linked to Israel. Government officials have rejected the activists' claims, stating that they encourage prisoners to seek medical support rather than endanger themselves through hunger strikes.
