CAMPAIGN groups in Manchester are joining forces for an emergency protest in support of hunger strikers in Palestine.
Palestinian prisoners Khalil Awawdah and Raed Rayyan have been on hunger strike for 80 days and 45 days respectively in protest against their administrative detention without charge or trial.
Another prisoner, Ahmad Manasra, is awaiting trial next month after being kept in isolation for six months.
CHRISTMAS 2025 is celebrated under the shadow of the hunger strikers imprisoned in British jails because of their solidarity with the Palestinian people.
As Palestine Action prisoners go weeks without food, alleging dangerous neglect and detention without trial, campaigners warn that a near-total media blackout is hiding a crisis that could turn fatal – and fuel a growing wave of public anger. ELIZABETH SHORT reports
