The family of a 27-year-old woman from Clane, Sophie Ní Choimín, are "extremely concerned" as she continues a hunger strike demanding that the Occupied Territories Bill be passed into law and food aid be allowed into Gaza.
Ms. Ní Choimín, who now lives in Galway, began the hunger strike on May 21st and is currently experiencing a cough, dizziness, body aches, and severe hunger pangs.
Speaking on Kildare Today, she said doctors are monitoring her condition, and while she feels shame over what she is putting her family through, she has their support.
Ms. Ní Choimín is expected to attend the Dáil on Tuesday but stated that the Government has not been keen to respond to her campaign.
She has been involved in protests and fundraising for Palestine, but says those efforts are no longer sufficient due to the Israeli blockade imposed in March, which has halted aid deliveries into Gaza.
Ms. Ní Choimín has pledged not to eat again until the Occupied Territories Bill becomes law.
Many people have been encouraging Ms. Ní Choimín's hunger strike across various social media platforms, with some expressing concern for her health.
