6th day: Situation of Hungerstrikers is getting worse

The situation in front of the UNHCR office in Tunis is getting worse. Yesterday the refugees and some few supporters tried to talk with people of the UNHCR staff, but when they were talking with one man, Ursula Schulze Aboubacar, the person repsonsible for UNHCR Tunisia, came by car and ordered that nobody should talk with the refugees or other people in front of the building.

During the last days, already some people collapsed and the ambulance came to bring them to a hospital. Today also two people collapsed, but no ambulance came, and it was told that that ambulances will no longer take refugees on hungerstrike to a hospital. So the two people were brought by taxi to a hospital.

It is very urgent to get more support for the Choucha refugees in order to brake the UNHCRs ignorance towards the collapsing people in front of their office!

It is time for the UNHCR to acknowledge the Refugees demands!

Write Emails in support of the Refugees demands to the UNHCR:
