Ahmed Abdel Halim, an Egyptian writer and commentator, fled to Lebanon in 2021 after years of arrests, imprisonment, and harassment. His book on body and identity was banned in Egypt in 2023, and he was questioned by security services. Lebanon later revoked his student visa, prompting his move to France in 2025. He remains in exile following earlier prison sentences and repeated attempts to leave Egypt amid pressure from security agencies.
