Farrow vows to go on hunger strike

Actress Mia Farrow plans to begin a hunger strike next week in solidarity with the people of Darfur.

The 64-year-old campaigner said she will begin a “fast of only water” on Monday “as a personal expression of outrage at a world that is somehow able to stand by and watch innocent men, women and children needlessly die of starvation, thirst and disease”.
