A kidnapped poet !
After the UAE kidnapped Turkish-Egyptian poet Abdulrahman Yusuf from Lebanon following his return from a visit to Syria, where he celebrated with Syrians after the fall of Assad, on December 28, 2024, the UAE “sentenced” him to 10 years in prison over poems he wrote criticizing the UAE’s role in Arab countries
Today, a UAE personality announced that the kidnapped poet has been granted release and “has cases against him in Egypt.”
This could mean he will be transferred to Egypt, where he will likely face torture or death, since he also wrote poems criticizing the Sisi coup regime.
This was the last video of him in Syria, where he said:
“We ask Allah to grant the Syrian people success in confronting all these malicious challenges being plotted against them by the entire world.
And among those plotting and conspiring are the regimes of Arab disgrace, and the Arab Zionists in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt…”
