HAPPENING NOW 40 states meet in The Hague to coordinate enforcement of international law for Palestine 🇵🇸 through The Hague Group
The U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran are illegal. Iran's attacks in Gulf States are illegal. The U.K. defending Gulf States is legal, but allowing the U.S. to use its bases is illegal. In short, everyone is violating international law and should stop. My latest @just_security .
⚠️ La Suprema Corte de Justicia de 🇺🇾 dictó la Sentencia 25/2026 en el caso "Guizado c/ Uber". Un fallo que cambia las reglas del juego para las plataformas. Abro hilo con las claves y su conexión con mi investigación. Spoiler: Fin del partido, los choferes son dependientes 👇
The ITUC stands in solidarity with Iranian teachers and trade unions courageously defending their rights, dignity, and freedom. We join @eduint and the global union movement in calling for respect for human and trade union rights in #Iran. Teachers are the backbone of every society. Their voices must be heard — not silenced. ✊ We demand: • The immediate release of detained unionists • An end to harassment and intimidation • Respect for freedom of association and collective bargaining #Empty_Desks, #Classes_Without_Teachers, #CCITTA @CoordinatingA
‘Promote justice, not disinformation’. - The Coordination Committee of @UN_SPExperts condemn vicious attacks against Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs by State representatives. States must choose to stand on the right side of history. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
“A deeply troubling new report from our colleagues @UNHumanRights: - It lays bare the destruction of neighbourhoods in Gaza and the expulsion of communities, tantamount to ethnic cleansing. - It spotlights other horrors — the continued killing and maiming, the blockade that pushed Gaza into famine, and torture. - It exposes violence and displacement in the West Bank. - It highlights the climate of impunity for violations by the Israeli authorities in the Occupied Palestinian Territory. This must be de-normalised. Wars have rules. International law matters. I echo Volker Turk’s words: “Impunity is not abstract – it kills. Accountability is indispensable. It is the prerequisite for a just and durable peace in Palestine and Israel.” Read the full report here: ohchr.org/en/documents/c… “ – @UNLazzarini
FREE MAOJ MAGA! FREE ALL POLITICAL PRISONERS! Workers led by Kilusang Mayo Uno and Free Our Unionists held a protest in front of the Department of Justice to call for the immediate release of Marklen Maojo “Maoj” Maga. On the 8th year of Maoj’s imprisonment, the workers and FOU called on fellow workers and citizens to continue taking action until all political prisoners are freed and all fabricated charges are dismissed. The groups also asserted that Rodrigo Duterte deserves to be imprisoned for his crimes against the people, including grave violations of workers’ rights.
