The warring parties have no intention of changing tact without consequences for their actions. Today should mark a step change. Global leaders shld concretely act to
👉🏿Push for unfettered, safe aid access
👉🏿Support accountability
👉🏿Sanction abusers, extend arms embargo nationwide

The shameful inaction of the UNSC should be rectified as they address Sudan today by asking the Secretary-General “to consider what kinds of measures the UN can adopt to better protect Sudan’s civilians.” Said Laetitia Bader Human Rights Watch

The #BurkinaFaso government's decision to block Human Rights Watch after our findings of possible #CrimesAgainstHumanity + other independent media shows exactly why international assistance to investigate abuses is so critical.

Burkina Faso has blocked Human Rights Watch’s website over a report on possible crimes against humanity by security forces.

Authorities should unblock HRW and all other outlets wrongfully censored. Access to information is a human right.

11 yrs ago today I was in Bangladesh. I recall looking the TV and seeing images of what I thought was a bombing. It was the Rana Plaza collapse. 1100+ garment workers died and 200+ were injured that day. Supply chain laws are key in preventing such loss of life and other abuses.

The UK cannot rewrite Rwanda's atrocious rights record - including security forces' 2018 killing of 12 Congolese refugees, its involvement in large-scale displacement the DRC, and its transnational repression.

The truth is there for all to see.

🚨2day is a dark day in the UK

The Gov's cruel, costly & unlawful Rwanda Bill passed

Rishi Sunak has shamefully thrown the rule of law, int'l obligations & ppls lives under a bus, all to score political points

#Gambia

❗️ #Soudan #Darfour Les pertes civiles augmentent près d'El Fasher, alors que diverses forces se mobilisent autour de cette ville densément peuplée. Des centaines de milliers de civils sont dans la ligne de mire. Le Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU devrait agir pour les protéger.
