@egypt at first they detained him for a Facebook post, but the false news charges were against a 2019 article "Displacement, Killing & Harassment: A Week in the Diaries of Egypt's Copts."

Tonight I made one kind of Tunisian couscous - beef - big pieces of carrots, potatoes, turnips, green and red peppers, hummos (the beans) garlic, spices, tomato, stock - (I omitted the zucchini because tomorrow is mahshi day). Thank you Ma’moun for whom I managed at Moun of Tunis.

Abd Alhane Alani has a long thread on the fires set by in Damascus where people have refused to sell their properties.

“Thread: Who is responsible for the massive fire that occurred yesterday in the historical palaces of and in the Historical Documents and Archives Authority?” @syria @iran

@iran @syria 4 massive fire broke out in 2017, then in 2018 and 2019, and more again in 2020 and so on.
This isn't new.
The conversion of properties into ashes, followed by preventing their owners from rebuilding, and then purchasing at a meager price, is part of the Iranian project in SY

@Sherifazuhur@sfba.social avatar

@syria @iran Today, we are witnessing a strikingly similar incident. The fire consumed the Historical Documents Center, the ancestral origins of Damascus families, and the Ottoman archives that document the history of the ancient city. https://twitter.com/abdalhadealani/status/1680663962554122240?s=46&t=Yhq3QV92jsoKbzPyadn2TQ

@syria @iran She (⁦‪@RanaKabbani54‬⁩) says and I quote:

‎"They have left nothing of our heritage but ashes because if they did, the difference between us and them would be evident، They are nothing but drug dealers, smugglers, roadblocks, and war criminals."

@syria @iran And here is an article from Syrian TV discussing the history of deliberate fires in Syria and the absurd justifications provided by the regime : https://twitter.com/abdalhadealani/status/1680663970338816000?s=46&t=Yhq3QV92jsoKbzPyadn2TQ
