Welcome Home Naama

Welcome Home Naama

January 30, 2020


StandWithUs applauds the release of Israeli backpacker Naama Issachar, after her unacceptable detention by the Russian government. Naama was held in multiple Russian prisons for over 8 months, on false charges of attempting to smuggle drugs into the country.
StandWithUs and many others around the world united around a campaign to free Naama. We are grateful that she is back with her family and justice has finally been served.
