Hatem al-Najjar is a journalist and online commentator, known for hosting the podcast “Muraba’a”. In January 2024, a pro-government social media campaign targeted him after his podcast announced plans for an international radio platform, causing old tweets from 2014 to resurface and circulate online. On January 14, 2024, after publicly apologizing for them, Al-Najjar was arrested for the tweets. He was released on November 9, 2024.
