Palestine Action prisoners launch rolling hunger strike over detention conditions
The trio launched the strike after Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood failed to respond to a letter outlining their concerns
A trio of prisoners, held on remand in the UK for alleged offences relating to Palestine Action activities, have launched a hunger strike over what they describe as "systematic abuse" by prison authorities.
The campaign group Prisoners for Palestine (PFP) announced on Sunday that prisoners Qesser Zurah and Amu Gibb launched a rolling hunger strike by refusing food at HMP Bronzefield.
Huba Muraisi, who is being held on remand at HMP New Hall, joined them on Monday.
More prisoners are expected to join the strike in the coming days, although PFP said they could not disclose total number of prisoners participating in the strike over fears individuals will be further targeted by the authorities.
