An email I recieved this morning...

Dear friends,
Spiros Tsitsas, a Thessaloniki hunger striker for 23 days was taken to hospital yesterday, Tuesday October 28th. His condition isn't thought to be serious. We are not sure if he has stopped the hunger strike. The other 4 hunger strikers - Simon, Castro, Fernando and Carlos are doing okay but some are suffering breathing problems, Castro is appoaching 40 days on hunger strike - the others around 26 days. This is a serious time for them, if the Greek State doesn't intervene the result could be long tern health problems for all the hunger strikers or worse.

For anyone that has ever taken part in actions across Europe over the years, this could have been anyone of us. Our solidarity is with Simon, Carlos, Castro, Fernando, Spiros in these days.

Delegation: Three people from WOMBLES will travel to Thessaloniki to participate in a meeting with the secatariat of Madrid CNT, Anti-authoritarian movement of thessaloniki, Lecturers of the University and the Solidarity Group. This will be a public debate held in Thessaloniki.

There will also be a mass demonstration in Thessaloniki on November 7th. This will hopefully be the biggest mobilisation in support of the Thessaloniki Prisoners.

Peace
WOMBLES
