 The UAE's state-run news agency says a court in Abu Dhabi sentenced 53 Emirati citizens to long prison terms for their ties to a local offshoot of the outlawed Islamist group, the Muslim Brotherhood. They were found guilty on terrorism charges that include social media posts calling for reform, which the court says threatens public order. Human Rights Watch's Joey Shia says the defendants are political dissidents, academics, and human rights defenders, most of whom were already convicted in a separate mass trial and behind bars since 2013.
