#Venezuela While your country suffers grave consequences of 24 June earthquakes, @LarryDevoe 100s of people remain arbitrarily detained. I demand their release & strict protection of lives & safety of all detainees. Please ensure humane detention & release all unfairly detained!

#Tunisia: On 23 June, the Tunis Court of Appeals upheld the shocking & unjust 8-year prison sentence against prominent anti-racism figure Saadia Mosbah. She has already spent 2 years behind bars solely because of her human rights work. @TnPresidency you must release her NOW!

Absolutely! So @winstonpeters , @chrisluxonmp , @dbseymour I would very much welcome hearing from you about why NZ abstained on this reappointment please?
Helen Clark@HelenClarkNZ

Astonished to see #NZ Govt vote against reappointment of @volker_turk as UN High Commissioner for #HumanRights. NZ was 1 of 13 abstentions; there were 144 Yes, 10 No. This demands a “please explain” from NZG as to why it didn’t support @antonioguterres recommendation to reappoint

At least 30  people have reportedly been transferred from the US to Eswatini under a third-country removal arrangement. @MoJCA_Eswatini please stop facilitating #USA's use of secretive migration deals to bypass due process, detain people arbitrarily or expose them to further harm

Erika Guevara Rosas@ErikaGuevaraR·
🚨🇪🇺🇮🇱 Failure to suspend EU-Israel Association Agreement must spur member states to take unilateral action: It’s beyond shameful that a majority of #EU member states, led by #Germany and #Italy, continue to block the suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement. Countries committed to uphold international law must not remain silent while others actively undermine the very principles they claim to defend. As the current holder of the Presidency of the @EUCouncil, Ireland is in a powerful position to influence the EU’s course of action on #Israel. It must seize this critical opportunity to help ensure that member states meet their obligations under international law. Ireland’s experience of colonization, famine and conflict, its leading role in international efforts to end apartheid in South Africa and its recent albeit limited progress towards banning imports of goods from settlements, give it a unique perspective and authority that should be used to seek accountability for Israel’s grave violations and to anchor EU policy on the Occupied Palestinian Territory firmly in the protection of human rights. If the EU will not act together, member states must act individually and unilaterally suspend all forms of cooperation with Israel that may contribute to its grave violations of international law, including by imposing a comprehensive embargo on the export of arms and surveillance equipment and related technology, and a total ban on trade with and investment in Israel’s illegal settlements in the OPT. The EU must stop allowing Israel to face no meaningful consequences for its ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, its system of apartheid against Palestinians, including its ethnic cleansing campaign in the occupied West Bank, its unlawful occupation of the Palestinian territory, and war crimes in Lebanon. In the pages of history, there will be a clear distinction between those who failed to act in the face of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza and those who stood up for humanity

The ICC exists to deliver justice for the victims and survivors of atrocities around the world and hold the most powerful perpetrators accountable. By threatening increased sanctions against the ICC and affiliated organizations, the US government is stepping up its campaign for a world without rules or justice. amn.st/6018BEkqzC

Travel bans violate freedom of movement & deprive people of access to education, work & relatives abroad & obstruct global advocacy. @EgyptianPPO, @moiegy immediately lift all arbitrary travel bans & stop using them against those peacefully exercising their human rights.

#Egypt’s authorities impose arbitrary travel bans to punish & silence human rights work & criticism. Ahmed Samir Santawy, Mohamed El-Baqer, & Karim Ennarah, Mohamed Basheer & Gasser Abdel Razek have been banned from travelling for up to 6 years for exercising their #HumanRights.
