Editorial

Turkish conscientious objector Mehmet Tarhan is on hunger strike for more than 32 days today, and War Resisters' International is very concerned about his health, and long-term health consequences this hunger strike might have. We therefore urge you to make your protest heard with the Turkish authorities, to fulfill Mehmet Tarhan's demands, so that he, and his friend Ali, can end their hunger strike. Please keep in touch with updates on WRI's Turkey campaign page.

War Resisters' International also already released the campaign pack for this year's Prisoners for Peace Day, with a special focus on Eritrea. Please order your campaign pack, or download it from our website. And let us know what you plan for 1 December - Prisoners for Peace Day.
