Egyptian authorities release feminist activists detained in Gaza and Sudan protest

Egypt's State Security Prosecution released all the feminist activists who were arrested  last Tuesday for protesting in solidarity with women in Gaza and Sudan.

The protesters were gathered outside the headquarters of UN Women in Cairo and read a letter decrying the agency's "failure" to protect women in Gaza and Sudan, accusing it of racism.

The arrests came as part of a wider crackdown on pro-Palestine protests in Egypt.
