For the second day in a row, dozens of detainees in the UAE-run prison of Bir Ahmed in Aden are on a hunger strike over their arbitrary detention and ill-treatment.
The former leader of the UAE-backed Southern Resistance, Adel al-Hassani, said that about 50 detainees in Bir Ahmed prison are subjected to inhumane treatment by the prison officials.
He stressed that the detainees, most of whom belong to the northern provinces, first declared an open hunger strike in 2016 to protest the inhumane-treatment by those in charge of the notorious prison.
