On March 8, International Women's Day, we at Women Journalists Without Chains urge the immediate release of female journalists and political prisoners
in the Middle East and North Africa as well as the disclosure of the circumstances surrounding their detention.
We also applaud the crucial role played by female journalists in exposing social injustices and corruption, and we call attention to the need to reduce the dangers and challenges they encounter as they go about their line of work.
