Over 200 Venezuelan political prisoners launch hunger strike over amnesty law exclusions
More than 200 Venezuelan political prisoners began a hunger strike on Sunday, demanding inclusion in a new amnesty law they say excludes many detainees, particularly those facing military-related charges. The law, approved by Congress last week, forms part of reforms backed by Washington after former president Nicolas Maduro’s January ouster.
