Another Take: The story of Alaa Abdel Fattah
Manage episode 444807622 series 2466489
Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on November 9, 2022. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.
The world’s eyes are on Egypt this week, with the United Nations Climate Change Conference – COP27 – taking place in the resort town of Sharm el-Sheikh. But while Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi positions himself as an environmental leader, one of his country’s leading activists could be about to die. Alaa Abd el-Fattah has been on hunger strike for over 200 days, protesting his imprisonment. But on Sunday – the first day of COP27 – he stopped drinking water as well. Will the international community do anything to save him?
In this episode:
- Mona Seif (@monasosh), Human Rights Activist and Sister of Alaa Abd el-Fattah
