A message from Eman’s family, shared on her behalf
Although Eman cannot speak to you directly at this time, we know she would be deeply moved by the kindness, prayers and support shown to her and her family.
Thank you to everyone who has shared her story, contacted the family privately, offered help or simply kept Eman in their thoughts and prayers.
We are especially grateful to the journalists and organisations helping ensure that Eman’s voice is heard:

We are grateful—but our work is not finished. Eman remains detained, and her four children are still waiting for their mother to come home.
Please continue sharing her story, contacting those who may be able to help and keeping Eman’s name visible.
From Eman’s family: thank you for standing with her and refusing to let her be forgotten.
