بينما تتابع سباق الجائزة الكبرى للفورمولا 1 في #أبو_ظبي و حفلاته الموسيقية الساحرة التي انطلقت اليوم، تذكر أن السلطات الإماراتية لا تزال تتسابق لإسكات أصوات المنتقدين والمدافعين عن #حقوق_الإنسان. أحمد منصور، محمد الركن، وآخرون في السجن بسبب عملهم الحقوقي السلمي. #AbuDhabiGP

While you party hard, how about you spare a thought and call for the release of prisoners of conscience in the UAE? #F1 #AbuDhabiGP #AbuDhabi #UAE
Ready, steady... go as the epic F1 weekend begins today! ⁣ ⁣ Share all your F1 moments with us and show us how you are spending the weekend⁣ #YasIsland #YasMarina #AbuDhabiGP

Don't be fooled. Behind the bling of fast police cars in the #UAE is a cruel reality of enforced disappearance, incommunicado & arbitrary detention, & torture. @Ahmed_Mansoor, @DrAlRoken and others remain behind bars for their peaceful #humanrights work. thenational.ae/uae/transport…

يبلغ الناشط الإماراتي ⁧#أحمد_منصور⁩ عامه الخمسين اليوم، خلف القضبان. وذلك لعمله الشجاع دفاعاً عن #حقوق_الانسان. أيّ "تسامحٍ" هو هذا الذي تتدعيه السلطات في ⁧#الإمارات⁩ عندما يكون السجن مصير كل ناشط وممارس للحق في التعبير؟ لن نكلّ حتى يتم الإفراج عن منصور و زملائه. #عام_التسامح

Colleagues from @ISHRglobal and @GulfCentre4HR went to the @UAEMISSIONGENF to deliver a cake and a joint letter signed by 140 orgs to officials as part of the global campaign to #FreeAhmed, who turned 50 years behind bars. Both were rejected. #UAE youtube.com/watch?v=bFMgwFm6…

Thinking of Ahmed Mansoor, the UAE's preeminent human rights activist, who spends today - his 50th birthday - in jail, rather than with his loved ones. @MohamedBinZayed should #FreeAhmed and all other prisoners unjustly jailed for their opinions immediately. #BirthdayWishes4Ahmed

#AhmedMansoor, #MartinEnnals 2015 Laureate, will sadly celebrate his 50th birthday in solitary confinement in #UAE solely for defending #humanrights. He should be released unconditionally now! #FreeAhmed #BirthdayWishes4Ahmed

.@Ahmed_Mansoor- a poet, engineer, father, and human rights defender many of us know personally- has been sentenced to 10 years in prison in the #UAE for defending #humanrights. Ahmed turns 50 today behind bars. Happy birthday Ahmed! We will not rest until you're free! #FreeAhmed
Tomorrow is the birthday of #PrisonerOfConscience @Ahmed_Mansoor. He will turn 50 behind bars for defending #humanrights. Please join us tomorrow in tweeting for Ahmed with the hashtag #FreeAhmed. He should be celebrating with his loved ones. #UAE

Q:Emirati influence in the UK. A: UAE is very adept at creating these networks and alliances. Informal coalitions. Glue here in the UK = Royal Family, Minister network. @MohamedBinZayed = "man behind the curtain". Hidden yet v personal relationships / networks #UAE #humanrights
