Hadeel Kouki is a 20 year old Syrian Christian who has been an active leader in the struggle for a free Syria. She was first arrested in March 2011, and has since been rearrested several times, spending no less than 52 days in prison. When Syrian Military Intelligence summoned Hadeel for questioning toward the end of 2011 because of her involvement in providing medical assistance to injured demonstrators, Hadeel decided her safest option was to flee the country. She hid with nomads in the desert before the Free Syrian Army smuggled her into Turkey, and she now continues her activism from Egypt as one of the most prominent cyberdissidents.
