Egypt: And the IslamOnline strike continues · Global Voices
Mohamed ElGohary

The IslamOnline employees sit-in continues after some achievements. After  the situation escalated threatening the striking employees to leave without  getting their financial rights from the new administration, things turned to  another direction in what seems like the beginning of a victory for the employees.
Nadia ElAway, an ex-journalist  in IOL, tweets from the strike location at the Cairo Bureau:
@NadiaE: Sheikh  Qaradawy freezes 2 #islamonline Qatari board  members and their recent decisions (im at #iol & heard  announcement)
Mohammed who is also  a former IOL employee and who is following the strike closely, tweets:
@MohammedY: Not  sure yet what the latest updated on #IslamOnline crisis means  exactly, but it seems to be a victory for the protesting employees! #IOL
Mohammed Ghafari, who is one of  those responsible for live-tweeting and live-streaming the strike, explains the  goal of continuing the strike:
@Ghafari:  اعتصام موظفي اسلام اون لاين مستمر حتى تمكينهم من اداء عملهم الصحفي واعادة التحكم  في المواقع الى مكتب القاهرة مجددا #IOL #IslamOnline
Ahmed AbdelFattah mentions the names of the sacked board members, previously mentioned by Nadia:
@Ahmedikhwan: عاجل : الشيخ يوسف القرضاوي يقيل العمادي والانصاري بعد ضغوط من اعضاء مجلس  الادارة الذين اتهموهم بهدم موقع اسلام أون لاين
And he mentions that no decisions have been taken yet regarding the employees on strike directly:
@Ahmedikhwan: ولايزال الاعتصام مستمر لانه لا توجد حتي الان قرارات تتعلق بالعاملين #islamonline #iol
Ahmed also uploaded many photos of the strike on his Flickr account:

The strikers created a Youtube channel and a blog with the name IslamOnline Voice to  centralize their updates.
Here is the video of the third  day of the strike:
The strikers made the following video expressed as a spoken protest to the potential restructuring of IslamOnline that would result in an ultra conservative model alienating the vast  majority of 120,000 daily visitors.
