Au second tour d'élections #Legislatives2024 décisives en France 🗳🇫🇷, une majorité d'électeur·rices a choisi de ne pas être gouvernée par l'extrême droite.   De nombreuses mesures du programme du RN représentaient un danger pour les droits fondamentaux.

The international community should recognize that the fight Afghan women and girls are in right now is a fight for the rights of women and girls everywhere. We should stand with them as if their fate helps determine our own—because it does. gjia.georgetown.edu/2024/02/…

THREAD: I was initially confused as to why Biden would say this - is he taking a leaf out of the R's playbook and using the specter of an insecure border to whip up votes? But then I thought back 10 years and realized he's actually victim blaming. 1/ thehill.com/homenews/adminis…

As we mark one year since the death of John Williams Ntwali in #Rwanda, yet another journalist is denouncing torture in court. Despite plain facts, the #UK government and @RishiSunak continue their cynical and shortsighted plan. New communique by @hrw hrw.org/news/2024/01/18/rwan…

Under the shadow of wars in Ukraine & Gaza, refugees have become chips on the Capitol Hill bargaining table. What risks being lost in this high-stakes game is a recognition that fundamental human rights R not negotiable, including the right 2 seek asylum. hrw.org/news/2024/01/02/bide…

Our @hrw Digital Investigations Lab put together these two great videos to explain how we used Lidar scanning, 3D modelling, satellite imagery & more to document apparent war crimes on the border between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan 1/
How does HRW's Digital Investigations Lab conduct its work? New video explainers show how when conflict broke out on the Tajikistan/Kyrgyzstan border in 2022, the Lab worked with other HRW research colleagues on the ground to investigate possible violations of the laws of war.

Some facts—Israel has: -Cut water/electricity & sealed crossings for entry of food for 2+ months -Obstructed entry of all but trickle of aid via Egypt -Razed agricultural land -Attacked bakeries, wheat mills & water facilities -Said they're starving population as tool of war. A🧵
Replying to @hrw
Speaking facts here, not wild accusations: Food and humanitarian aid constantly flows into Gaza. The UN warehouses in Gaza are filled with food, distributed on a daily basis. Interested in joining the efforts? There are always ways you can contribute.
