Nurse and activist Iryna Danylovych ended her hunger strike in connection with the promise of the PRE-TRIAL DETENTION CENTER management to take her to a clinic for examination. Her father told the Graty media agency about this.

On April 4, Danylovych was taken to the Simferopol PRE-TRIAL DETENTION CENTER, on the spot she got acquainted with the protocols of the trial before the appeal. On April 5, she met with her lawyer Oksana Zheleznyak. The management of the pre-trial detention center promised to give Iryna the opportunity to undergo an examination, after which the activist ended her hunger strike.

Recall that on April 29, in the occupied Crimea in the village of Vladyslavivka near Feodosiia, Russian security forces searched the house of civilian journalist Iryna Danylovych, after which the woman was detained.

On March 22, Iryna Danylovych went on a dry hunger strike until she was provided with normal medical treatment or until her death. She took this step in protest against the bullying of her by the administration of the pre-trial detention center because of the failure to provide medical assistance.
