The story of Qatari women’s rights defender Noof Al-Maadeed
globalvoices.org
Human rights defender Noof Al-Madeed disappeared after releasing a series of videos in March providing evidence of violations of her civil and human rights by the Qatari State security apparatus.

The 24 year old Al-Maadeed left the UK for her home country Qatar after local authorities promised to provide her with the necessary protection and respect for her human rights upon her return. However, she disappeared in March 2023 and it’s unclear whether she is alive, Khalud Ibrahim, executive director of the Gulf Center for Human Rights (GCHR), says.

    Eh? They certainly don’t have a pro-west angle but it’s a bit disingenuous to call them the mouthpiece of jihadists. That’s the same ignorant BS spouted by Sarah Palin and Bill O’Reilly lol.
