ALERT. The families that sheltered US whistleblower Edward Snowden when he was hiding in Hong Kong in 2013 are facing detention and deportation from the city. For more than ten years, their claims for asylum were unanswered. Now, after their role in the escape of Edward Snowden has become public, their claims have been rejected. They can be picked off the streets by the authorities and detained at any time. The families' legal team in Hong Kong has only a few weeks to prepare the appeals. All donations received from now on will therefore be directed in accordance with the families' immediate needs, including appeals to avoid them from being deported. Please help save these families.
