The campaign group Prisoners for Palestine said that Kamran Ahmed, Heeba Muraisi and Lewie Chiara-mello began “re-feeding” on Wednesday. Heeba Muraisi had been on hunger strike for 73 days.

They are awaiting trial for alleged break-ins and criminal damage on behalf of Palestine Action before the group was banned under terrorism legislation.

Prisoners for Palestine claimed the Government has denied Israeli-based defence firm Elbit Systems a £2 billion contract, which they said was “a key demand of the hunger strikers”.
