Until all these laws and regulations are scrapped, the same violence that resulted in the death in custody of Mahsa (Zhina) Amini in 2022 will continue against millions of other women and girls in Iran.

Nearly 19,000 #cholera cases have been reported in #DRCongo this year and a recent spike has raised concerns. Humanitarians are stepping up efforts to prevent a large outbreak. A $750,000 allocation from @UNCERF is helping communities deal with cholera ➡️ bit.ly/3rCESXc

A decade since the infamous #UAE94 trial, 51 of 69 detainees have served their sentences but remain arbitrarily imprisoned in the #UAE. All #politicalprisoners must be released, officials implicated in torture, unfair trials brought to justice. tinyurl.com/yn5c9dvw

The Biden administration has deceptively cleared the Ethiopian government of committing ongoing atrocities even though its allied Amhara regional security forces continue an ethnic cleansing campaign in Ethiopia’s Western Tigray Zone. hrw.org/news/2023/07/20/why-…

Three more protesters were recently put to death in #Iran on suspicion of murdering security personnel, which raises major questions about due process and impartial trials. We must ensure the rule of law is upheld and the rights of defendants protected in Iran. #ExecutionsinIran

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict has inflicted unimaginable brutality on innocent lives. The heartbreaking accounts of #children being used as human shields & families enduring unimaginable pain underscore the urgent need to end this cycle of violence. #OPT #Israel #Palestine

The Taliban's systematic violations of women & girls' rights in #Afghanistan are deeply concerning. Their actions should be examined as possible crimes against humanity, particularly the gender persecution they perpetrate continuosly. #Afghanwomen #Afghangirls

Political detainees in #Tunisia deserve justice! President Saied's crackdown on political dissents is alarming & is threatening to deepen the already worrying politicized prosecutions. These people have a right to speak their minds! #humanrights #freedomofexpression

Behind the scenes of Sudan's crisis emerges #UAE's hidden hand. Their actions promote chaos & undermine stability by funding mercenaries and supplying weapons. It's time to expose their role in fuelling conflict & demand accountability. #UAE #Sudan #RSF

The UNAMA report exposes the shocking extent of #humanrights violations by the #Taliban in #Afghanistan. #Corporalpunishment & #deathpenalty are widespread, targeting #Afghanwomenandgirls & the #LGBT community. These barbaric practices need to end! @UN

The rise in abusive rhetoric & hate crimes against the #UK #LGBT community calls for urgent action. Political leaders are supposed to promote inclusive policies, not #hatespeech that only ignites possible hate crime. #LGBTQrights #InclusiveUK #backslidingdemocracy

As the #UAE prepares to host #COP28, concerns about its #humanrights record loom. Authorities continue to suppress #freedomofexpression and #peacefulassembly, leaving little room for political dissent. A more just and open society is needed! @HRW @Amnesty

As the #UAE prepares to host #COP28, concerns grow over the govt's severe restrictions on #humanrights, including #freedomofexpression and #peacefulassembly. The country's recent #cybercrimelaw and #antiterrorismlaw only add to the worries of civil society groups and activists.

#UAE is guilty of numerous #humanrights abuses. Despite the mounting evidence of these abuses, they show no signs of addressing the situation. In response, @HRW & @Amnesty are calling for the UAE to be removed as the host of #COP28, the upcoming #UN #climate conference.

More than three-quarters of #prisonersofconscience in the #UAE have completed their sentences yet remain in arbitrary detention to date, as the authorities refuse to release them. Given their #humanrights record, UAE is simply not fit to serve as the #COP28 host! @HRW @Amnesty
