It also exposed the darker side of the tournament: corruption, repression, and thousands of migrant worker deaths.

Following a favorable opinion from the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, HRF urges the regime to immediately release Anacleto, provide compensation and other reparations for his arbitrary detention, and investigate his allegations of torture to hold the perpetrators accountable.

Defending human rights is not a crime. We stand with Anacleto and all prisoners of conscience in Equatorial Guinea.

As a new US indictment names Raúl Castro and five other Cuban officials, González examines why the case still matters and why preserving the historical record is essential for justice and accountability. Read the full op-ed: thefp.com/p/raul-castro-indi…

Beautiful and moving piece by @GraceJDrexel who is hoping for miracle for her imprisoned father, Pastor Jin Mingri. He has been detained in China for more than 200 days. President Trump recently raised his case during his meeting with Xi in Beijing. @RCPolitics

HRF condemns Rwanda’s new elections law which hands dictator Paul Kagame sweeping control over the composition of electoral colleges for local government elections. It is the latest legal manipulation to tighten Kagame’s control over local government.

Oda Gasinzigwa, a ruling Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF) party member who was appointed by Kagame’s cabinet in 2023 as Chair of Rwanda’s National Election Commission (NEC), declared on June 8 that the change is designed to allow the composition of electoral colleges to be modified by Presidential Order whenever “prevailing conditions and circumstances require it.” newtimes.co.rw/article/36342…

The measure was initially introduced in Rwanda’s RPF-controlled parliament in March by Minister of Local Government Minister Dominique Habimana. This follows a well-worn pattern of power consolidation through legal manipulation. In 2015, the regime orchestrated a constitutional change allowing Kagame to rule until 2034. newtimes.co.rw/article/34205…

HRF calls on the international community to remember the human cost of global authoritarian alignment and collaboration. Kim Jong-un’s deepening ties with China's Xi Jinping and Russia's Vladimir Putin are not just diplomatic maneuvers.

For North Korea's Kim, this is not about peace or prosperity. It is about securing economic aid, diplomatic cover, and recognition for a nuclear dictatorship that survives through repression at home and aggression abroad.

HRF urges the international community to see these summits for what they are: authoritarian coordination that strengthens regimes, not people. Any discussion of regional security must keep human rights at the center.

One year ago, on June 7, 2025, Salvadoran authorities arrested Enrique Anaya, a prominent constitutional lawyer and outspoken critic of Nayib Bukele’s government, on baseless money laundering charges. HRF demands his immediate release and full respect for his due process rights.

A year later, his case remains marked by serious due process violations. The proceedings are under total secrecy, and Anaya has faced restricted contact with his lawyers and family, obstacles to accessing the case file and evidence against him, and limitations on his ability to prepare his defense.

Today, HRF stands in solidarity with Enrique Anaya, his family, Cristosal, and all Salvadorans calling for justice and accountability. Anaya should not spend another day behind bars. The international community must press for his immediate release, full respect for due process, and the implementation of the IACHR’s precautionary measures.

On the evening of Oct. 20, 2025, unknown armed assaillants suspected of being aligned with the regime broke into Karembera’s home and violently abducted him. He was discovered the following morning in police custody with severe injuries and accused of distributing flyers and mobilizing the public via social media for a planned pro-democracy protest against dictator Emmerson Mnangagwa. changeradiozimbabwe.com/2025…

Karembera, a colorful entertainer and self-style prophet has long been the target of political repression. In April 2025, unknown assailants suspected to be linked to the regime hurled petrol bombs at his house, injuring one of his children. In 2022, he was hospitalized from police beating and torture and charged with disorderly conduct for canvassing for main opposition presidential candidate Nelson Chamisa.
