Not knowing why we were there or how long we would stay, we were left without any info about when we would be going home or whether they would take us to a police station. I had deactivated my facebook account for a while now because of these police stops that happens regularly — PolitiTweet.org

After this tour ended, they drove us to an ad hoc national security checkpoint in Downtown in the entrance of a random residential building. They kept us there, we were around 14 men of different ages, at the same time people were casually going in and out of the building. — PolitiTweet.org

They then took us into a police patrol vehicle, but wouldn’t tell us where they were taking us. The car moved around the neighborhood, going to different checkpoints, and at each checkpoint a new person would join us. — PolitiTweet.org

#COP27 has already come at a high price for Egyptians. One benefit cane be a deeper understanding of the connections between political rights and climate action. And the connections between Egypt’s repression and the governments of the US, UK, EU, Israel and others w — PolitiTweet.org

This is not a “distraction” from #COP27. Egypt is on the frontlines of the climate crisis, from heatwaves to sea-level rise. Without a focus on justice, the future will be one of technical fixes for some at the expense of a livable environment in Egypt + the world’s majority. — PolitiTweet.org

Our comrade Alaa Abd El Fattah is starving to death in Cairo prison. He is in jail for sharing a post about prisoner abuse. The refusal to take the action required to save his life mirrors the refusal to take action to save a habitable planet. #FreeAlaa https://t.co/EOd0dvxs7D — PolitiTweet.org

We are doing this because climate progress cannot be separated from political rights. We will not protect a habitable planet unless we are free to fight for it. #COP27 is greenwashing a police state. With fascism on the march around the world, that must be forcefully resisted. — PolitiTweet.org

Most of the regime’s critics are not able to get to #SharmElSheikh. Many Egyptians who r there have been vetted by the regime. With rampant surveillance, those who speak out are in extreme danger. Rights groups warn of a severe crackdown after #COP27 https://t.co/dL9Of4HqMl — PolitiTweet.org

Egypt is a police state with an estimated 60k political prisoners behind bars + a media system tightly controlled by the regime. So most of the stories we share need to be anonymous. We will vet them for accuracy and bring them to you in English + Arabic. https://t.co/aQg3C0GInO — PolitiTweet.org
