١. حکایت تلخ و طولانی کشتار سیستماتیک #کولبران کورد و #سوخت‌بران بلوچ؛ ابتدا کرامت و سوژگی انسانی‌شان را می‌ربایند و آن‌گاە آنان را در مقام قربانی ازلی می‌کشند، در آرامش کامل و بدون واهمە از هر پیامدی.

Op deze Internationale #Vrouwendag vestigen we specifiek de aandacht op de meer dan 2700 Jezidi-vrouwen en -meisjes die nog altijd gevangen worden gehouden en als slaven verhandeld onder de terroristen van de zogeheten Islamitische Staat. #YazidiGenocide #BringThemAllHome

Israel first said it lethally targeted a car carrying journalists in Gaza because there was a terrorist in the car. Now it says that the use by a journalist of a drone made it 'look like' they were terrorists. Targeting of civilians is illegal. 1/2

Dozens of journalists have been killed in the #Israel #Gaza war. The first month of the war was the deadliest period for journalists covering conflict since 1992 when CPJ began keeping records.

Congratulations, Niyaz Abdulla! Data from #WomenInJournalism over the past 4 years shows around 80% of women journalists targeted in Turkiye are Kurdish. And as Niyaz says: “When you’re a woman journalist, the challenges & threats will be much more. First as a journalist, second as a woman”
