When an Egyptian activist posted a nude picture of herself online in protest at the lack of freedom of expression, it sparked outrage in her country.
Now, a group of women in Israel have also stripped off in a show of solidarity.
Inspired by 20-year-old Aliaa Elmahdy's bold move, the 40 Israelis posed naked for a 'copycat' shot...
Elmahdy, a self-proclaimed atheist who recently dropped out of university, insists she will continue to fight for her freedom.
She told CNN: 'Women under Islam will always be objects to use at home.
'The (sexism) against women in Egypt is unreal, but I am not going anywhere and will battle it til the end.
'Many women wear the veil just to escape the harassment and be able to walk the streets.
'I am a believer of every word I say and I am willing to live in danger under the many threats I receive in order to obtain the real freedom all Egyptian are fighting and dying for daily.'
