The hunger strike launched in Greek capital Athens for the freedom of Kurdish People's Leader Abdullah Öcalan continues on its third day.
The five-day hunger strike launched in front of the Greek Parliament with the motto “Öcalan's freedom is our freedom, his health is our health” continues on the third day. The strike will end with a massive rally after the fifth day.
Participants continue the hunger strike in a tent at Syntagma Square with great morale. The strike is also supported by Greek people.
The site of the hunger strike has kind of turned into a rally area Tuesday evening with participants handing out flyers in English and Greek, stressing that they will not accept Turkish state invasion in Rojava, West Kurdistan.
Hunger Strike Organisation Committee called on all the Kurds living in Athens to join the demo, saying "Leader Apo's health and security is the assurance of peace". The Committee said they will be on the streets every day until Öcalan, from whom no news has been received since April 5, is accessed.
