Guantanamo hunger strike prompts urgent Red Cross Visit

BBC News - Guantanamo hunger strike prompts urgent Red Cross visit
The ICRC said on Wednesday that it had initially planned to send its team to Guantanamo on 1 April.
"However, in an effort to better understand current tensions and the ongoing hunger strike, we have decided to start this visit one week earlier," ICRC spokesman Simon Schorno said.
He added that "tensions at Guantanamo are certainly related, in our view, to the uncertainty that's prevailing on the future of the detainees".
"We see a clear link between that and their emotional state.""
