Civil rights activist Mahvash Seydal entered the fifth day of her hunger and medication strike on Thursday while imprisoned in Tehran’s Evin Prison.
According to a post on Seydal’s Instagram account, she is experiencing severe fluctuations in blood pressure and intense migraines.
Prison authorities have not responded to her condition or addressed her demands, the post said.
Seydal is currently serving a three-year sentence in two separate cases related to her activities on the Clubhouse social media platform.
She has been held in the women’s ward of Evin Prison since October 2024.
The activist said that she would continue the strike if authorities continue to ignore her demands and held the Islamic Republic responsible for any consequences.
