The condition of those on a three-week hunger strike in Tbilisi has worsened.

Eight opposition members, who have been on hunger strike outside the Georgian parliament for three weeks, are having difficulty moving due to weakness, but they do not intend to stop the action.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot", on November 16, hunger strikers outside the Georgian parliament began collecting signatures demanding the disclosure of the terms of an investment agreement with an Arab developer, under which a district in Tbilisi and a resort near Batumi are planned to be built.

On October 28, one of the leaders of the "Coalition for Change" Gedevan Popkhadze, activist of the "United National Movement" Darejan Tskhvitaria and several others announced a hunger strike in protest against the persecution of supporters of European integration. The protest is taking place outside the Georgian Parliament building, where protesters gather daily. On November 4, the total number of hunger strikers reached eight. On the 16th day of the protest, one of the hunger strikers was hospitalized but returned to the protests.

The condition of the eight hunger strikers outside the Georgian Parliament is deteriorating daily; on the 21st day of their hunger strike, they are barely able to move due to weakness, Pirveli TV reported today.

One of the hunger strikers was previously arrested for blocking a road and received 14 days in jail. After spending 14 days in jail, he joined the hunger strike.

“We are not going to give up because our demands are unchanged, and until they are met, we will not back down,” the activist said.

Other protesters confirmed they would not end their hunger strike, despite their deteriorating health. "This protest was necessary. We made the right choice; we are thus strengthening the protest on Rustaveli Avenue," said Gedevan Popkhadze.
