A complete statement from the Wikimedia Foundation, made by Katherine, has been posted on the Wikimedia Blog: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/08/03/bassel-khartabil/ https://blog.wikimedia.org/2017/08/03/bassel-khartabil/
We are also asking for people’s assistance with translating this message into other languages given the global impact of these events: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Free_Bassel/Wikimedia_Foundation_mourns_the_... https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Free_Bassel/Wikimedia_Foundation_mourns_the_loss_of_Bassel_Khartabil
The plan is to make additional information about the Foundation’s efforts to honor Bassel’s contributions and values will be available during Wikimania.
I want to join Katherine and others on this list in offering my personal condolences to all impacted by this tragic outcome.
-greg

Very sad news indeed. Frustrating that we could not gain more social media traction, when there is such nonsense that does.

This is a very sad news.
Bassel will continue to be an hero in our hearts and we will take solace in his activities in the Open movement.
