British-Egyptian activist arrives in UK after travel ban lifted

British-Egyptian activist Alaa Abdel Fattah arrives in the UK after travel ban lifted by Egyptian authorities, allowing him to reunite with his family. Abdel Fattah, a writer and pro-democracy advocate, was released from jail in September after a lengthy detention. His imprisonment was linked to charges of spreading fake news, following a Facebook post discussing torture in Egypt. This marks a fresh start for Abdel Fattah and his family after enduring years of separation and struggle, including his mother Laila Soueif's near-death hunger strikes to secure his release.
