#مصر تدين منظمة القلم الدولية بشدة استدعاء نيابة أمن الدولة العليا للشاعر المصري #أحمد_دومة للمرة الخامسة خلال العام الماضي بتهم جديدة. وقد أُفرج عنه بكفالة قدرها 50 ألف جنيه مصري. يجب على مصر أن توقف استخدام المضايقات القضائية لترهيب منتقدي الحكومة.

We strongly condemn the summoning of Egyptian poet Ahmed Douma for the fifth time in the past year by the Supreme State Security Prosecution on fresh charges. He was released on bail of 50,000 EGP. Egypt must end its use of judicial harassment to intimidate government critics. @penmena.bsky.social

Our next recommendation under the theme 'Words for Our Planet' is La Mucama de Omicunlé by Rita Indiana.With visions of the future, Indiana asks us to imagine new ways of living with the Earth and its possible tomorrows. An inventive call to rethink our place on a fragile planet.

#USA: We are pleased to see Jimmy Kimmel return. His case reminds us of the urgent need to resist worsening threats to free expression. We can only hope his words spark a louder and more consistent opposition to the Trump administration’s attacks on free speech.
