It is critical that the UN Security Council resolution passed today is immediately implemented. States should use all forms of leverage—including imposing arms embargo & targeted sanctions on Israel—to press it to comply. The lives of millions of Palestinians hang in the balance.

Ethiopia's arrest of OLF spokesperson, Batte Urgessa, alongside a French journalist, highlights once again the government's intolerance of dissent. High time for #Ethiopia's partners to call the growing number of arrests out @hrw hrw.org/news/2024/03/0…
Do you consider certification proof of responsible business conduct? Last year's deaths of 27 men at gold mine in Peru may have been preventable - it lacked basic fire prevention measures, acc to @publiceye_ch. The mine was certified by @RJCJewellery. hrw.org/news/2024/02/1…
🚨NEW: We just released a major report on #Russia's devastation of #Mariupol, which stands out as one of the worst chapters of #Russia's invasion of #Ukraine. Based on nearly two years of research @hrw, with our partners @truth_hounds & @situ_research hrw.org/news/2024/02/0…
New letter by @hrw & other NGOs call on Canada to suspend arms to Israel: "Countries that transfer arms to another country that are likely to be used in the commission of war crimes, crimes against humanity or genocide risk being complicit in those crimes" hrw.org/news/2024/02/0…
Over the past year, @hrw analyzed hundreds of Chinese government and company documents online and found links between the car industry, aluminum, and Chinese government labor transfers, a form of forced labor. Read our new report: hrw.org/news/2024/02/0…
ICJ has urgently called for protecting Palestinians from genocide & further atrocities—watershed ruling that raises stakes for Israel's allies to back up stated commitment to global rules-based order by ensuring compliance w binding ICJ order—new from @hrw hrw.org/news/2024/01/2…

Now public: communication to the Govt of #Uganda on the violent arrest & detention of 4 HRDs from @Studenteacop. I regret not having received a response from the authorities. The HRDs are now on trial & I will continue to follow the case @UGMissionGeneva srdefenders.org/uganda-violent…

The UN Security Council will vote today on a new resolution calling for an “urgent and sustainable cessation of hostilities” in #Gaza. No permanent Security Council member—not the US, not Russia—should veto resolutions aimed at stopping mass atrocities. hrw.org/news/2023/12/1…
Israel’s 2-month+ denial of food/water to Gaza’s population, its destruction of objects indispensable to survival—bakeries, grain mills, water facilities—& razing of agricultural land reflect policy to use of starvation as a weapon of war, an abhorrent war crime. New @hrw report.

New @hrw report: For 8 years, warring parties in #Yemen have used water as a weapon of war in #Taizz, leaving 3 million residents to suffer without adequate access to water. Houthis + IRG should immediately negotiate to end the siege on Taizz’s water. hrw.org/news/2023/12/1…
Injustice! On Dec 8, the Hoima High Court ruled that compensation for 42 households whose land is being compulsorily acquired for @TotalEnergiesUG's Tilenga project could be deposited in court. The ruling came 4 days after the case was filed. Communities say it is unfair. Read 👇
Breaking: @hrw report finds that Israeli forces apparently deliberately killed Reuters journalist Issam Abdallah in Lebanon on Oct 13. Those responsible for this apparent war crime should be held to account. Unprecedented #s of journalists have been killed since Oct 7—it must end

Orwellian times we are in. Actual genocide in Gaza is ignored totally—in fact condoned and justified—while vehemently anti-Palestinian politicians and pro-Israel donors are furious with timid university presidents because of allegedly "genocidal" slogans chanted by…
Bombs raining down. 2 months of Israel blocking electricity, fuel, water, food & meds. Parts of Gaza receiving no aid. Risk of disease increasing. Collective punishment & deliberately obstructing aid are war crimes. World must act to stop mass atrocities.
