The undersigned organizations hereby express their solidarity with journalist Ahmed Maher, who is incarcerated at Bir Ahmed Prison under the custody of the Southern Transitional Council (STC). According to a credible and well-informed source, Maher initiated an open hunger strike last week demanding a prompt trial. Since his arrest in August 2022, the Specialized Criminal Court in Aden has repeatedly postponed hearings in the Ahmed Maher case.
