History was made on March 13th 2026, 03.13.2026, when a protest organised by the members of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light took the Egyptian embassies around the world by storm in a humiliating exposure of their abuses of basic Human Rights according to Article 18 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which Egypt is a signatory to since the 10th of December 1948.

Arrests, torture claims, and a global campaign: Egypt faces mounting pressure over jailed minority believers.

Yesterday, *Newsweek* published a major report on Egypt’s worsening religious freedom situation, specifically highlighting the persecution of members of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light.

Over a dozen Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light members remain tortured and detained in Egypt for their beliefs. A global campaign launches today, urging activists to post, testify, and pressure embassies for their release.

Egyptian authorities arrested AROPL members in 2025 solely for their faith—tortured, disappeared, denied care. Amnesty demands release & justice. Join our month-long campaign from Dec 19: post, write embassies, amplify #FreeAROPLMembers. Faith is not a crime!
