Around 100 refugees mostly from Iraq -who were detained after crossing into Poland from Belarus have held a hunger protest against conditions at the holding centre they are being housed in.
Last November, around 100 men being held at the same facility rioted, demanding to be released and in December a hunger strike was held against the "prison-like" conditions at another holding center.
The protest is the second of its kind to take place at the same center in Wedrzyn. Polands deputy commissioner for human rights, who has inspected the site, calls conditions there "unacceptable" and not fulfilling the "fundamental guarantees preventing inhuman and degrading treatment"
