About this episode
This special episode of Radio Tabbouli brings you into the conversation we had following the publication of our October ‘24 issue, TMR 45 • FROM HERE ONE YEAR ON with Samina Najmi, Ziad Suidan and Lina Mounzer, with special guest Mona Seif. This discussion was about the year of war that began on October 7, 2023, which has since spread into Lebanon and Yemen, with further hostilities expected between Israel and Iran. TMR senior editor Lina Mounzer spoke with contributing writers Samina Najmi and Ziad Suidan about their pieces in the issue and their creative process. Mona Seif discussed the continued imprisonment in Cairo of her brother Alaa Abd El-Fattah despite finishing his five year sentence.
