Remaining Palestine Action hunger strikers have the resolve to continue, families say

Four detainees from Palestine Action remain on hunger strike in UK prisons, with families stating they are determined to continue their protest despite severe health risks. The hunger strikers are demanding the UK cease hosting weapons factories supplying arms to Israel, revoke the group's terrorist designation, and grant immediate bail to those on remand. Several strikers have been hospitalized, and family members report alarming health declines, including significant weight loss and medical complications. While four others have paused their hunger strikes under medical supervision, lawyers for the detainees are considering legal action against the government, alleging failures in prison safety and hunger strike protocols, which the Ministry of Justice denies.
