Serkan Onur Yilmaz is a revolutionary prisoner fasting to death against S, Y, and high-security solitary confinement cells. Today, he is on his 306th day and continues to refuse all food except liquids such as water and tea, sugar, and vitamin B1 (only to prevent brain damage). While an international day of solidarity was organized on the 300th day of his struggle, he sent a statement to his supporters.
I would like to extend my sincere greetings and affection to all those who have paid a heavy price, worked hard, resisted, and been detained for our fight so far.
Over the past 300 days, we have dealt powerful blows against various forms of isolation; we have inherited the legacy of the 122 who became immortal by resisting Type F isolation, and we have forged connections with people around the world.
We have turned our pain and the torture we endured into resistance through our hunger strike.
The breath we took for 300 days choked the lungs of those who imposed isolation. From now on, every day is a victory.
Every day I pursue resistance means a defeat for them.
We have always won together so far, and we will always win together from now on. May our 300th day of victory be blessed! »
