Egypt is barring refugee children from accessing schools, and those who manage to enroll often face bullying, abuse, and discriminatory practices from both students and teachers. These challenges discourage registration and lead many students to drop out.

The deported individuals from Kenya, including Alparslan Tasçi, Mustafa Genç, Huseyin Yesilsu, and Öztürk Uzun, now face an imminent risk of torture and wrongful imprisonment in a country notorious for its human rights abuses under the Erdogan regime. The actions of the Kenyan government are equally reprehensible. By facilitating these unlawful deportations, Kenya jeopardizes its standing as a refuge for those fleeing persecution. It undermines its role as a newly appointed United Nations Human Rights Council member.

Shame on #Kenya for letting #Turkey forcibly return four Turks who were under UN protection. “Among them is Mustafa Genc, who had lived in Kenya for more than 23 years and dedicated his life to education and intercultural dialogue. He was serving as the executive director of Harmony Institute, an organization that works to foster unity and equality through intercultural and interfaith dialogue in Kenya.” Both Kenya and Turkey must be held responsible for breaching international law and protection of those who seek safety from persecution. #EmergencyKenya #StopTurkishAbductions #HumanRights @WilliamsRuto @StateHouseKenya @KindikiKithure @GovtOfKenya @InteriorKE @ChrisMurphyCT @democracynow @KarenAttiah @marclamonthill @RailaOding @UKenyatta @AishaJumwa @skalonzo @gidoen_moi @NdindiNyoro @KithureKindiki @ntvkenya @NtvLivestream @KenyaCitizentv @BBCWorld @annesoy @UN_news_centre @UNHRCPR @UNHCR_Kenya @AmnestyKenya @CIVICUSalliance @ICJKenya @freedomhouse @MaryLawlorhrds @UNSRVAW religionnews.com/2024/10/22/as-…

The @UN_HRC is rapidly losing credibility as it allows #Kenya to facilitate #Turkey's abduction of UN-protected political refugees. The US State Department's 2023 Human Rights Report details grave issues in Türkiye, including enforced disappearances, torture, arbitrary detentions, and severe restrictions on freedom of expression. Both #Kenya and #Türkiye must be held accountable for this transnational repression. Upholding human rights should be non-negotiable especially if you have just been elected for a seat at the table of the UNHRC! #HumanRightsMatters #HumanRights #EmergencyKenya

@SingoeiAKorir how could you? You have handed over a protected refugee, Mustafa Genc, to Turkey—knowing full well what awaits him. A man once esteemed as the principal of Light Schools Academy, now condemned to face torture and imprisonment. He was under the protection of the United Nations, no less. Where is our conscience as a nation? Where are we headed, if even the shield of international protection can be shattered so easily?

Shame on the @UN_HRC for allowing a country with a dismal human rights record to join the Human Rights Council! Kenya stands complicit in #transnationalrepression , facilitating kidnappings and forcibly returning asylum seekers to a country that violates their rights. Civil society raised the alarms, yet Kenya remains seated? After this international fiasco, @UN_HRC has lost credibility. For Kenya, the human rights leadership of @roselyneodede and Dr. Raymond Nyeris, it's clear your government authorities reject international norms just like #Turkey. If the UN backs such regimes and governments who don’t protect their people, why should the world trust its commitment to human rights? #HumanRightsMatters #kickkenyaoffUNHRC @KNCHRLaikipia @hakiKNCHR @KNCHRWajir @KNCHRKitale @KNCHRkisumu @KNCHRMombasa @WilliamsRuto @StateHouseKenya @KindikiKithure @GovtOfKenya @InteriorKE @ChrisMurphyCT @democracynow @KarenAttiah @marclamonthill @WilliamsRuto @RailaOding @UKenyatta @AishaJumwa @skalonzo @gidoen_moi @NdindiNyoro @KithureKindiki @ntvkenya @NtvLivestream @KenyaCitizentv @BBCWorld @annesoy

A covert team of three operatives from #Turkey arrived at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport today aboard a Turkish Airlines flight, reportedly to facilitate the forcible extraction of four abducted Turkish nationals in #Kenya, a highly confidential source tells me.

🚨 Urgent: Four UN-protected asylum seekers—Mustafa Genc, Huseyin Yesilsu, Ozturk Uzun, and Alparslan Taşçı—were kidnapped in Nairobi on October 18 and remain missing! Fleeing persecution in Turkey, and protected by Kenya they are entitled to protection under the principle of non-refoulement, which prohibits their return to danger. We demand their immediate release and urge the UN to act swiftly to safeguard their rights! #FreeThemNow #ProtectAsylumSeekers #NonRefoulement #StopTurkishAbductions @WilliamsRuto @StateHouseKenya @KindikiKithure @GovtOfKenya @InteriorKE @ChrisMurphyCT @democracynow @KarenAttiah @marclamonthill @WilliamsRuto @RailaOding @UKenyatta @AishaJumwa @skalonzo @gidoen_moi @NdindiNyoro @KithureKindiki @ntvkenya @NtvLivestream @KenyaCitizentv @BBCWorld @annesoy

We at @RefugeesUnknown call for the release of the 4 kidnapped Turkish asylum seekers that were abducted in Kenya. They have been held since yesterday morning. This is against the non- refoulement fundamental principle of international human rights. Hold Turkey responsible of the 4 abductee’s that are likely being held in the Turkish embassy in Nairobi. @WilliamsRuto @StateHouseKenya @KindikiKithure @GovtOfKenya @InteriorKE @ChrisMurphyCT @democracynow @KarenAttiah @marclamonthill @WilliamsRuto @RailaOding @UKenyatta @AishaJumwa @skalonzo @gidoen_moi @NdindiNyoro @KithureKindiki @ntvkenya @NtvLivestream @KenyaCitizentv @BBCWorld @annesoy

Yesterday morning, 7 Turkish asylum seekers namely Mustafa Genç, Abdullah Genç, Hüseyin Yeşilsu, Necdet Seyitoğlu, Öztürk Uzun, Alparslan Taşçı and Saadet Taşçı were abducted in Nairobi by unknown masked gunmen. Three of the abductees have since been released, while 4 remain unaccounted for. The @LawSocietyofKe condemns the heinous violation of human rights and calls for immediate investigations to identify the perpetrators and locate the 4 missing persons. We note that Kenya has obligations under international law to protect the rights of all persons resident in Kenya. We further note that the Mutual Legal Assistance Act is clear that Kenya will not provide legal assistance to any foreign operatives with respect to matters of a political nature. The identification, tracking, enforced disappearance and seizure of property of the 7 individuals is, therefore, illegal in toto and inconsistent with Kenya's commitment to uphold the rule of law. Such acts of contempt against our sovereignty and constitutionalism cannot be condoned. We demand that the @DCI_Kenya and @IG_NPS act swiftly and decisively in getting to the bottom of this matter. #TransnationalRepressionKE
