ICE forcibly feeds immigrant on hunger strike

Observador5 September 2026 at 12:48

A Cuban immigrant detained by ICE (United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement) was on hunger strike when authorities received court authorization to forcibly feed him. The judicial decision allowed agents to proceed with the forced feeding of the detainee.

The method used includes the insertion of a gastric tube directly into the immigrant's stomach. This involuntary feeding measure was authorized by authorities after the court approved the ICE request.

The case refers to a Cuban detainee who started the hunger strike as a form of protest against his migratory situation. American immigration authorities justified the intervention with medical reasons and responsibility for the detainee's well-being.
