Fight for Freedom: The Struggle of Alaa Abd el-Fattah

Alaa Abd el-Fattah, a prominent Egyptian-British activist, has emerged as a symbol of the fight for human rights in Egypt following his significant involvement in the Arab Spring uprising.

Amid mounting pressure from international and local advocates, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has initiated a review for a potential pardon for Abd el-Fattah, who remains detained despite numerous campaigns for his release.

Detained for much of the last decade, Abd el-Fattah has become known for his vocal criticism of Egypt's government, leading to his continued imprisonment despite calls for justice from human rights organizations worldwide.
