Jordanian presenter Ola Al Fares has resumed work at MBC 1 TV channel after a two-week suspension, according to Okaz newspaper.
The MBC Group management had suspended the TV presenter over a controversial tweet, deemed defamatory of Saudi Arabia, in the aftermath of US President Donald Trump’s decision to recognise Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
Born in 1985 in Amman, lawyer-turned-journalist Fares is the second most followed Jordanian woman on Twitter after Queen Rania.
She hosts a weekly programme on MBC and was also the recipient of the Arab Woman of the Year award on December 3, 2015.
