Conclusion:

The vigil led by the family of Alaa Abd El-Fattah in London served as a call to action for the UK Government to advocate for his freedom.

With pleas for greater attention to human rights abuses in Egypt and revised travel advice for British nationals, the family hopes to see concrete steps taken to secure Alaa’s release and prioritize human rights in international relations.
