Rainfall figures from BBC meteorologists put this horrific disaster further in perspective: 414mm of rainfall were recorded in Al-Bayda, near #Derna, in the 24hrs from 8am Sunday to 8am Monday. The average annual rainfall in Benghazi is just 270mm. https://t.co/zL1RARhOyv

Pleasure to speak to #Bloomberg about Wagner's entrenchment in Libya:

Water💧 may be scarce, but not our actions to tackle this crisis.

We need to bring in all efforts, from the scientific to the indigenous knowledge- to create lasting change.

Together let’s take #WaterAction for a better future.

So incredibly proud that @RobertUniacke’s fascinating chapter on digital authoritarianism in Saudi Arabia is now in print!! He’s the best!
Check it out if you can - the cover will also look super cool on your bookshelf.

[Robert Uniacke @RobertUniacke]

It was a pleasure to contribute a chapter about the evolution/mechanics of authoritarian rule in Saudi Arabia to the new book "New Authoritarian Practices in the Middle East and North Africa" from Ozgun Topak, Merouan Mekouar, Francesco Cavatorta.
