اليوم تكمل د. ليلى سويف يومها الـ141 في إضرابها عن الطعام، احتجاجًا على استمرار سجن ابنها علاء عبد الفتاح رغم انتهاء مدة عقوبته في سبتمبر. في قصتي مع صحيفة تاز الألمانية، تحدثت عن نضالها، وكيف تُستخدم القوانين المصرية للقمع، لا للعدالة. #FreeAlaa

I can't believe we are still calling for Alaa's freedom in 2025. Particularly on the 14th anniversary of January 25. He finished his last sentence more than 100 days ago. His mother has been on a hunger strike since. Alaa was arrested in 2019.

Tahrir Square was not designed to serve as a space for the Egyptian people's expressions of revolution and protest, but it became exactly that. Since the 2011 uprising, it has been architecturally transformed to suppress its revolutionary identity and reshape its perception in collective memory:

There has been an international campaign with no outcome; the British system is complicit.I think it’s a stretch to wait for an outcome for his release from a local effort, not from lack of effort but rather things hit rock bottom in every way, adding the fact that the case of Alaa is very delicate.

For more than 13 years, Syrian survivors have shared their testimonies in events, films, exhibits; they've documented their abuses in rights reports; they smuggled photos for the world to see; they've testified in courts. For shame that it took so long and so much for hearts to be moved.
