One of the most profound experiences I’ve ever had of the preservation of hope amidst darkness was visiting the ICMP facility in Srebenica with a friend from Iraq. The world that heals honours the dead and identifies the missing.
“All I can say is that at least 10 per cent of the ammunition that is being fired potentially fails to function…with 100 trucks we’re talking about 14 years of work… 14 years with about 750,000 workdays - person workdays - to remove the debris.” news.un.org/en/story/2024/…

Greatly disturbed by the reported detention of at least 11 WHRDs in #Egypt following a protest in solidarity with women in Gaza and Sudan. They should be released immediately @PMEgypt_Geneva

Egyptian women stood in solidarity with women in 🇵🇸 & 🇸🇩 , and they were subsequently arrested. It was & will always remain an intersectional struggle against oppressors, whether they be occupiers or our own oppressive regime. These tough times are bringing us closer together.

AND if that weren't enough, Egypt is risking international and diplomatic tensions by arresting and prosecuting individuals promised protection by UN Women and some of whom happen to be multinationals of the United States, Ireland, and Italy. Because, priorities. #PlanetEgypt
Wrap your head around this: In the middle of regional conflict + economic crisis, Egypt is prioritizing the arrest + prosecution the country's top rights defenders for standing in solidarity with women impacted by the wars in Gaza and Sudan and demanding that the UN do better.
🔴 EIPR condemns the detention of Lobna Darwish, the director of EIPR's women's rights programme, and at least 18 others, most of them feminist activists, for their participation in a peaceful women’s protest that took place outside the regional headquarters of UN Women
Egypt has arrested a group of women for the "crime" of supporting women in Gaza and Sudan.

16 of the Egyptian protesters detained yesterday outside of the @unwomenarabic office during a feminist solidarity stand for the women of Gaza and Sudan are now being questioned before the Supreme State Security Prosecution. The remainder were released without questioning.

It's been ~8 hours since Egyptian authorities arrested and forcibly disappeared peaceful protesters from outside @unwomenarabic for their feminist solidarity despite promises from UN Women that demonstrators would be safe. 8 hours & @unwomenarabic remains shamefully silent.

Students from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Harvard University joined and rallied, alongside pro-Palestinian protesters, at an encampment on the MIT campus in Cambridge, Massachusetts. They stood in solidarity with colleges across the nation, advocating for…
If another country arrested that many students and professors in one day, the US would be deeply concerned
Italian students are protesting too. I don’t think people understand the ramifications of the protests at Columbia. Those kids are literally leading and paving the way with their activism. Palestine will set us all free.
Youssef Shaaban, a journalist who was observing the protest outside the @unwomenegypt He disappeared, and we found out by coincidence that he was arrested with the women protesters as well!
Moh Farag, a journalist who lives by the @unwomenegypt office in Cairo, was on his way to pick up his kid from nursery as the police was forcefully dispersing the feminist protest, so they arrested him as well!!

In 1958 in a lecture in Germany Hannah Arendt said: “We humanize what is going on in the world and in ourselves by speaking of it, and in the course of speaking of it we learn to be human.” Obviously they weren't listening

Missed my father @fnaim65 immensely... 90 days since his call, describing the intense sounds of missiles launching. From when this Gaza genocide began, my heart hasn’t eased from worrying about him ! Alhamdullah Heard from friends he's alive, hoping it's true & he is safe !
The ‘extremist’ doesn’t march, chant or hold placards. The ‘extremist’ systematically starves the most desperate people. The ‘extremist’ bombs women & children in tents, or clamouring for flour.
