Leyla Guven entered her open hunger strike to denounce the isolation imposed on Kurdish leader Abdullah Ocalan, who had been detained for more than nine months for her stance on Turkish attacks on Afrin.

Leyla's mother, Cevriye Guven, 94 years old, died this morning in the Turkish city of Qonya.

Leyla 's lawyers went to the Criminal Court to inform her of the death of her mother and to ask Leyla to attend her mother's funeral if her health status helped.
