International pressure is working!

After 40 days in prison Shadi has been released under house arrest. There will be further court proceedings but he will be home with his family, Abboud (his dog), online study, and to watch the World Cup. For his return, the whole neighborhood helped prepare his favorite dish of “Koussa wa waraq” (Stuffed zucchini and vine leaves). 

“We are thankful and grateful for everything you have done for Shadi, to everyone who stood with us, to each and everyone who worked, followed, wrote, composed, drew, launched campaigns and talked about Shadi”.  Shadi's mum.

Thanks also to Susan Templeman MP for submitting this petition to Foreign Minister Senator Penny Wong on this UN International Day Of Solidarity With The Palestinian People. 

And Senator Fatima Payman for her speech in the Senate referencing Shadi and the situation in Palestine.
