Seven prisoners have been taken to hospital since starting their strikes, with some claiming a lack of medical attention
Families of Palestine Action hunger strikers seek urgent meeting with Lammy
Eight prisoners have been on hunger strike while awaiting trial for alleged offences relating to Palestine Action before the group was banned under terrorism legislation. What do we know about the activists and their demands?
Qesser Zuhrah, 20, and Amu Gib, 30, who are being held at HMP Bronzefield in Surrey, were the first two prisoners to go on hunger strike on 2 November. They were joined the following day by Heba Muraisi, 31, who is at HMP New Hall. The group also includes Teuta Hoxha, 29, Kamran Ahmed, 28, and Lewie Chiaramello, 22, who is refusing food every other day because he has diabetes.
Earlier in December, Jon Cink and Umer Khalid ended their 41-day and 13-day hunger strikes for health reasons, Prisoners For Palestine said. The pair were admitted to hospital and have since been discharged back to prison.
