    We strongly urge the Philippine government to reverse the decision to shut down @rapplerdotcom, a pioneering digital news outlet that has become one of the only sources of independent news amid a crackdown on #pressfreedom. axios.com/2022/06/28/mar… 1/

    Indian journalist @RanaAyyub has been subjected to tens of thousands of abusive social media posts, including death threats. At ICFJ, we combat online violence designed to silence women journalists like Ayyub. See what we’re doing in our impact report: buff.ly/3a3nIcf

    This is deeply troubling. @RanaAyyub has been the target of prolific #onlineviolence, and now faces censorship on @twitter. She should be able to speak freely and safely in India. #WeStandWithRana

    ICFJ is alarmed at the blatant legal harassment of @RanaAyyub by Indian authorities. Today she was briefly held @ Mumbai airport & prevented from flying to London where she was due to speak at our event with @DoughtyStIntl & @IBAHRI about the offline impacts of #OnlineViolence 👇

    We stand with @RanaAyyub as she continues to speak truth to power, even as she faces increasingly serious threats to her life. We also call on the Indian government to defend her rights under international law to practice journalism freely & safely: icfj.org/news/icfj-stan…
