يعرب مركز وصول لحقوق الإنسان (ACHR) عن قلقه البالغ تجاه الإضراب المستمر عن الطعام والذي ينفذه أكثر من مئة معتقل من اللاجئين السوريين في سجن رومية في لبنان. بدأ هذا الإضراب في الحادي عشر من الشهر الجاري شباط/فبراير كوسيلة احتجاج سلمي للمطالبة بعدة مطالب. من بين هذه المطالب تسليم المعتقلين السوريين في لبنان للسلطات السورية الجديدة لإطلاق سراحهم، أو محاكمتهم في سوريا، أو لاستكمال مدة الحكم هناك. كما يطالب المعتقلون، وعلى رأسهم المضربون عن الطعام، بتسليط الضوء على الظروف اللاإنسانية المخالفة للقانون وأوضاع احتجازهم القاسية التي يعانون منها في السجون اللبنانية، كما يطالبون بمعاملة إنسانية كريمة.
