1 | Kuwait: Stateless Protesters Attacked for Demanding Rights | Koety: Olona Tsy Manana Zom-pirenena Tafihana Noho Ny Fitakiany Ny Zony |
2 | This post is part of our special coverage on Refugees. There are more than 100,000 stateless in Kuwait struggling to have the rights to documents, education, health care, employment, and most importantly naturalization. | Maherin'ny 100.000 ireo olona tsy manana zom-pirenena monina any Koety no miady ny mba hananany antontan-taratasy momba azy, fanabeazana, fikarakarana ara-pahasalamana, asa fivelomana, ary ny tena manan-danja indrindra dia ny fandraisana ho olom-pirenena. |
3 | Back in February and March, hundreds of them took to the streets to demonstrate for those rights, where they faced police brutality and arrests. | Efa hatrany amin'ny Febroary sy Martsa, anjatony amin'izy ireo no nidina an-dalambe mba hanao fihetsehana hitakiana ireo zo ireo, ary teny no niatrehan-dry zareo ny herisetran'ny polisy sy ny fisamborana. |
4 | This month, after the replacement of Kuwait's Prime Minister, following public pressure due to protests, Kuwait's stateless population felt more encouraged to protest again. | Tamin'ity volana ity, taorian'ny nanoloana ny praiminisitra ao Koety, nanaraka ny tsindry avy amin'ny vahoaka noho ireo hetsi-panoherana, ireo olona tsy manana zom-pirenena ao Koety dia nahatsiaro fandrisihana hanao hetsika indray. |
5 | Last week, there were several small protests in reaction to the trials of protesters. | Tamin'ny herinandro lasa, marobe ireo hetsi-panoherana madinika nateraky ny fitsaràna ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana. |
6 | On Friday, the protest led to the arrest of 20 men, later released on Sunday. | Tamin'ny Zoma, ilay hetsi-panoherana dia nitondra nankany amin'ny fisamborana lehilahy 20, avy eo dia navotsotra ny Alahady. |
7 | On Monday, a bigger protest took place in Taimaa, where protesters gathered, in which police used tear gas, rubber bullets, water cannons, and smoke bombs to disperse them. | Ny Alatsinainy, hetsi-panoherana iray lehibe no nitranga tao Taimaa, toerana nifamotoanan'ireo mpanao fihetsiketsehana, ka tanatin'izany no nandefasan'ireo polisy ny entona mandatsa-dranomaso, bala fingotra, tifitra ranobe, ary baomba manetroka mba hanaparitahana azy ireo. |
8 | Later on in the evening, Kuwaitis wanted to protest side by side with the stateless for their rights in front of the parliament, but security forces decided to not let anyone inside the Erada Square, unless they showed a valid civil ID card, which proved they were citizens. | Taty aoriana, ny alina, naniry ny hihetsika miaraka amin'ireo tsy manana zom-pirenena mitaky ny zony teo anoloan'ny parlemanta ny Koetiana, saingy nanapa-kevitra ny tsy hamela na iza na iza hiditra ny faritry ny Kianja Erada ny mpitandro filaminana, raha tsy hoe mampiseho karapanondro manan-kery ry zareo, izay manaporofo fa olom-pirenena tokoa. |
9 | Monday also marked the arrest of around 30 men who entered a hunger strike on that same day. | Ny Alatsinainy koa dia nomarihan'ny fisamborana lehilahy 30 izay niditra tamin'ny fitokonana tsy hihinan-kanina tamin'io andro io. |
10 | I tried to cover the protest through Twitter, translating the observations of activists on the ground, tweeting in Arabic. | Niezaka ny handrakotra ny zava-nisy tamin'ny twitter aho, amin'ny fandikàna ny fahitan'ireo mafàna fo eny an-kianja, nandefa bitsika tamin'ny teny Arabo. |
