Gazan comedian arrested for criticizing power outages
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAuthorities in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip have arrested a Palestinian singer-comedian after he made a video about the electricity crisis in the enclave.
Adel Meshoukhi was summoned by police and arrested, an interior ministry source says.
On Wednesday Meshoukhi published an online video about the ongoing shortages of electricity and employment in Gaza which included the line “Hamas enough.”
It has been viewed more than 150,000 times.
Musical comedian Meshoukhi, who has been detained previously, is perhaps best known for an ode to a cat.
