Teuta Hoxha

Teuta Hoxha is a Palestine Action activist who was recently imprisoned in the United Kingdom. She gained prominence for undertaking a 60-day hunger strike while incarcerated. Hoxha's hunger strike was initiated to demand immediate bail and the right to a fair trial. The group Prisoners For Palestine reported that Hoxha's health was failing and that she required hospitalization, which they alleged was being denied by prison authorities. Her case, along with other Palestine Action detainees on hunger strike, has drawn attention from former hunger strikers and pro-Palestine activists. These activists accuse the UK government of refusing to engage with the detainees' demands, leading to protests, including actions targeting Labour Party offices. Hoxha's hunger strike ended after 60 days, with concerns raised about her health and access to medical treatment. Her case highlights the ongoing activism surrounding Palestine Action and the tactics employed by its members.
