After the new Qatari administration announced that 250 employees in the widely read IslamOnline news website (IOL) would be laid off, hundreds of employees, editors, and journalists started an angry sit-in. 
Baada ya uongozi mpya wa Qatari kutangaza kuwa wafanyakazi 250 watapunguzwa kazi katika mtandao wa habari unaosomwa sana wa IslamOnline (IOL), mamia ya wafanyakazi, wahariri, na waandishi wa habari walianza mgomo wa kuonyesha hasira yao.
