#WorldPressFreedomDay - media #freedom is under constant attack. #Journalists are targeted with violence. #WPFD is not just a day of reflection, but a call to action: the fight for press freedom #must happen every single day, but does not stop them from doing their jobs. #Somalia

I was #denied boarding on flight GA 006, insisting that I had a return ticket. When I attempted to book it immediately, staff member refused & consulted with someone else. Although I overheard him saying ‘allow her', he ultimately #declined to let me. Take responsibility Gulf Air

The imperative to resolve rape cases in a sensitive and timely manner must be addressed, ensuring justice is served for the two girls who were brutally raped by 27 men. The perpetrators of the similar incidents should be held accountable, bringing justice to all victims. #Somalia
