A one-day hunger strike was held in the Zurich canton of Switzerland to protest the conditions of prisoners in Iran, especially those sentenced to death. The strike was organized in solidarity with Pakshan Azizi, who has been sentenced to death by the Iranian state, and other women prisoners in Iranian jails.

The event took place at the Rojava Cultural Association in Kloten, Zurich, led by the Swiss Committee of the Free Life Party of Kurdistan (PJAK). The hunger strike was a protest against the harsh conditions and death sentences imposed in Iranian prisons.

The co-chair of the Swiss Democratic Kurdish Council, Cemal Özdemir, along with many others, visited the hunger strike protest.

On behalf of the hunger strikers, Hakim Hutiti, spokesperson for the PJAK Swiss Committee, gave a press statement. He highlighted the death sentence of Kurdish journalist Pakshan Azizi and mentioned several women detained in Evin Prison. Hutiti said: "We are holding this protest to amplify the voices of political prisoners, especially women, in Iranian jails. All our people in Europe should become the voice of the prisoners resisting in Iranian prisons. Our people from all parts of Kurdistan and Europe must take action against the death penalty."

The press statement concluded with the slogan "Jin Jiyan Azadî" (Women, Life, Freedom).
