“The prisoners on hunger strike are in direct confrontation with the enemy, but they have only the weapon of the empty stomach,” said Khaled, reported Hadf News.

She called on the militant left to unite in supporting the strike, saying that “the prisoners are telling us for 20 days to come to the streets and showing us an example of unity.”
