Today, (8/04/2025), I participated in a static protest in front of the Iraqi Consulate in Manchester to condemn the Kurdish government (Kurdistan Regional Government ) and parties ( PUK & PDK ) for their inhuman treatment with journalists and the persistence silencing freedom of speech in Kurdistan Region.

The protest concentrated on releasing the journalists who have been detained by PUK and PDK forces with no legal excuses and have been tortured inhumanely.

No to silencing journalists and freedom activists. No to kidnapping journalists. Yes to freedom of speech and journalism.
