On the 4th anniversary of the forcible closure of #AppleDaily by the Hong Kong government, former employees still go to its empty HQ to remember; mango & lychee trees bear fruit on the abandoned grounds; & its executives, including Jimmy Lai, are still in prison & on trial.

Very honoured to write and edit of this “special edition” of Apple Daily for RSF, marking the 4th anniversary of its forced closure. Remember the journalists & press freedom defenders still in jail - some may be out next month, some will take a few more years.

We are deeply alarmed about the fate of those held in Iran’s Evin prison. They and all those wrongly imprisoned must be freed immediately. #FreeMehranRaoof #FreeVerishehMoradi #FreePakhshanAzizi

Thousands of people are marching for pride in Budapest. A 200 pp @Amnesty delegation is here from around Europe. Against repression we stand and rise. We resist. This is trans-national civil disobedience. #BudapestPride

After more than 3 hours we are still marching for equality and freedom at Budapest Pride . This is easily the biggest Pride and perhaps biggest demonstration ever. #LetPrideMarch

A great campaigning day for Women’s Rights in Afghanistan at Waterfest today. It was so heartening to see the people of Reading standing with Afghan women. Thanks to everyone who signed our petitions, made a donation or volunteered on the stall. #WeStandWithAfghanWomen

NEW RESEARCH: National Security Law in Hong Kong EXPOSED It’s been 5 years since the National Security Law. Here’s how it has been used as a tool of repression: 1️⃣ In at least 85% of concluded cases, people have been prosecuted for their peaceful expression -with no evidence

It is 5years ago today that the #NationalSecurityLaws were imposed on #HongKong. Many further restrictions have been added. Political prisoners unjustly imprisoned. Any voice that speaks in opposition is silenced. Democracy & freedom of speech must be restored.

5 years since the HKNSL, I’ve gone from a teenage protester to a wanted “criminal” in exile— with a HK$1 million bounty on my head. This law has destroyed lives, and turned an entire generation into exiles. But fear won’t silence us, and we will fight until #HongKong is free.

The regime wants to hang her to make an example. The death sentence of #Pakhshan_Azizi has been confirmed for the third time. She is one of many brave women the Islamic Republic is trying to punish for the “Woman, Life, Freedom” uprising. And yet… the free world still does
