Hoxha is one of the ‘Filton 24’ – 24 people currently held on remand in connection with an action at an Elbit Systems factory in Filton, Gloucestershire, in August 2024. She has been imprisoned without trial since November 2024.

This is Hoxha’s second hunger strike, after previously refusing food starting in August this year. She told Novara Media in September that she was being “punished retrospectively” for the proscription of Palestine Action under UK terror law.

Hoxha was moved to HMP Peterborough from HMP Bronzefield on the day that MPs decided to ban Palestine Action under the Terrorism Act, and said that her treatment had worsened after the proscription. The English Literature graduate described being “called a terrorist” and “told that I’m part of a terrorist group” by prison staff, along with having her mail withheld and her job in the prison library taken away.
