About
Kamran Ahmed is a Palestine Action activist who was arrested and charged with breaking into Elbit Systems UK in August 2024. Palestine Action is a pro-Palestine group. Ahmed, along with other activists including Teuta Hoxha, Qesser Zuhrah, and Heba Muraisi, participated in a hunger strike while imprisoned. The hunger strike, which lasted for weeks, was part of a larger rolling protest involving multiple Palestine Action-linked prisoners. The activists were demanding a fair trial and protesting the UK's designation of Palestine Action. The hunger strike garnered significant attention, with writers and scholars expressing solidarity. Ahmed was eventually granted bail along with other activists. The strike ended after a UK-based subsidiary of Elbit Systems, an Israeli arms manufacturer, reportedly failed to win a UK government contract. Concerns grew for the activists' health as the strike continued, with reports of serious physical deterioration.
