In Türkiye, several revolutionary prisoners are maintaining indefinite hunger strikes to protest the imposition of so-called “criminal inmate” badges and constant 24-hour camera surveillance in detention. To support them, the Association for Mutual Aid and Solidarity with the Families of Prisoners and Convicts (TAYAD) is calling for a day of solidarity fasting on June 28. Additionally, various solidarity actions have taken place in European cities outside Türkish state missions, notably in Athens on June 19.
