On Wednesday, December 4, 45 political prisoners in prisons across the country went on a one-day hunger strike to protest brutal executions and to express their support with the several thousand hunger strikers in Qezel-hesar Prison.

The one-day hunger strike was held on the 40th day of the execution of two Kurdish political prisoners, Habibollah Golparipour and Ismael Mohammadi.
