Controversial Freed Egyptian American Aid Worker Defends Hamas, Sparks Criticism

Aya Hijazi, an Egyptian American woman who was freed from a Cairo jail by former President Donald Trump in 2017, has faced criticism for expressing support for Hamas on social media. Hijazi, who endorsed Joe Biden in the 2020 election, has refused to condemn Hamas and made controversial statements against the West. She was arrested in Egypt in 2014 on child trafficking charges but was found innocent and returned to the US. Critics have accused her of ingratitude towards the US and questioned her support for Hamas, which is the Palestinian wing of the Muslim Brotherhood.
