Yagiz refuses treatment and continues hunger strike

The health situation of Kurdish hunger strikers is worsening.

HDP member Nasir Yagiz who has been on in definite hunger strike in Hewler for 73 days, was hospitalized in the face of worsening medical condition.

Yagiz, like hundreds of other Kurds on hunger strike in Turkey, Kurdistan, Europe and beyond, demands an end to the isolation regime imposed on Kurdish People’s Leader Abdullah Öcalan.

Experiencing deteriorating health conditions at 21:00 local time this evening, Yagiz was taken to Par Hospital but he refused to be given serum.

Following the medical examination, Yagiz returned to the HDP Representation Office in Hewler where he carries out his protest, and continues his resistance.
