Glasgow students demanding end of Israel ties begin hunger strike

THREE University of Glasgow students have begun a hunger strike as they continue their campaign for the institution to sever its relations with Israel and the arms trade.

This morning, 30 students once again took occupation of the Charles Wilson building renaming it the Ahmad Manasra Building in honour of the 23-year-old Palestinian man who has languished in an Israeli jail since he was 13 years old.
