The news that a #ceasefire deal has been reached between Israel & Hamas will bring some glimmer of relief to Palestinians victims of Israel’s genocide. But it is bitterly overdue. There is no time to waste, the international community must ensure: 📌lifesaving humanitarian aid in Gaza 📌urgent rebuilding of medical and other essential infrastructure 📌end of illegal blockade 📌access to independent human rights monitors 📌end of the occupation and the apartheid 📌justice and accountability for victims

In a landmark ruling, @ECHR_CEDH concludes that there is “serious evidence suggesting” a practice of systematic #pushbacks by the #Greek authorities from Evros region to #Türkiye, something that @amnesty and other NGOs have been saying for years. There must be accountability🧵

How do you say genocide in the EU's 24 languages? As EU leaders meet in Brussels to discuss Israel's actions in #Gaza, we sent them a message they can't ignore #EndGazaGenocide 👇

Today is the 40th anniversary of the Bhopal tragedy, an outrageous crime of corporate negligence. The deadly toxic gas cloud killed over 22,000 people & injured 500,000. Yet the people of Bhopal still await full compensation. Read more 👇 amn.st/6010tvApq

The repeated Israeli attacks on UNIFIL’s operations and personnel in southern Lebanon in recent days must be urgently investigated. International humanitarian law prohibits intentional targeting of UN peacekeeping missions which are entitled to civilian protection.

ING blijft vervuilende raffinaderijen en kolencentrales rustig doorfinancieren, met alle gevolgen van dien. Talloze rapporten (van o.a. @amnestynl en @EGeldwijzer), protesten, Kamervragen en brieven stuiten op dovemansoren bij @ingnl. ‘ING ontkent alles.’ amnesty.nl/wordt-vervolgd/in…

Slovenia and Montenegro must stop the Portuguese-flagged MV Kathrin, believed to be carrying explosives bound for Israel, from docking at their ports, given the clear risk that such cargo would contribute to the commission of war crimes in Gaza. #NoWeaponsForWarCrimes

Dit 'gebruik van nationaliteit' is hoe etnisch profileren in de praktijk plaatsvindt. Keer op keer. En ook nu weer: ontkenning, geen transparantie en gebrekkig toezicht. Ook dat is illustratief voor institutioneel racisme door de overheid. ftm.nl/artikelen/overheden-w… via @FTM_nl

Uit nieuw onderzoek van de Bankwijzer blijkt dat @ingnl @ABNAMRO @Rabobank & @vanlanschot financiële relaties hebben met bedrijven die belasting ontwijken in Nederland. Door belastingontwijking lopen landen miljarden aan inkomen mis. Stuur ze een klacht 👉 bit.ly/4elTRYs

#Belarus: 3 years today since detention of Ales Bialiatski and his Viasna colleagues. NL remains deeply concerned about their wellbeing. We continue to demand their immediate and unconditional release. Picture: Viasna receiving #HumanRights Tulip in 2022. @DutchMFA @FreeViasna

Welcome home, Julian! WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange is finally free & is on his way to Australia, where he will reunite with family after over 5 years in prison, battling extradition to the US. This win is the result of a global campaign that fought for his freedom. Thank you.
