The foreign press is back to coverage of the fallout from last month’s protests. BuzzFeed is claiming that Twitter suspended “dozens of accounts” belonging to Egyptians and Egyptian-Americans critical of the government during the demonstrations that broke out in September. The social media platform apparently said that the accounts were erroneously suspended. The Wall Street Journal, meanwhile, notes the growing evidence of the use of torture by Egyptian security forces. Meanwhile, Mohamed Ali has done his fourth sit-down with the international press in as many days, adding AFP to the interviews he gave the BBC, New York Times and the Guardian last week.
