UK Journalist, Iona Craig Leaves Yemen


"After Adam was deported last week, for the first time, I decided not to run as I have too many times in the past.... The answers to those questions were partly answered by the manager of immigration who pulled me aside at Sana’a airport on Monday morning when I chose to leave Yemen of my own accord. I realised I’d had enough of the constant cycle of farcical drama, instigated by the state, that comes with living as a journalist in Yemen over three and a half years. I wanted it to stop. To take back control." -Iona Craig, indexoncensorship.org
