Warning from Women Protesters in Kabul: We Will Go on Hunger Strike
Bayan News – Simultaneously with a hunger strike by some women activists in Germany, a group of protesting women in Kabul has also issued a warning that they will go on a hunger strike in the Afghan capital if the situation of women and girls in Afghanistan is not addressed.
The protesting women, who are part of the spontaneous movement of Afghan Women Protesting, stated on Wednesday (September 5) through a resolution that they support the hunger strike of women activists in the city of Cologne, Germany.
In their resolution, they have called on the United Nations and the international community to support the demands of Afghan women and girls and take fundamental actions to save them.
These protesting women are speaking out through a hunger strike while women’s rights activists in Germany have also been on a hunger strike for the past five days in protest against the world’s indifference.
Women and girls from various countries have expressed solidarity with these women.
