About 150 Yemenis went on a hunger strike in a prison located on a port city near Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

They are on this hunger strike protesting the fact that they have been jailed for four months now without any charges and without any release dates.

Yemenis are severely mistreated in Saudi Arabian jails and prisons. The Saudi Arabian government is barring their release and their extradition to Yemen.
