This unconscionable killing must end. Given mounting evidence of potential genocide, all states should impose an arms embargo on Israel, and ensure the full implementation of UN Security Council Res.2728 and the ICJ’s provisional measures order. #GazaCeasefireNow
“Statistics are just people with the tears wiped off.” There are currently 110 million people in the world displaced by persecution, conflict and atrocities. What would you do if you had to flee? #RefugeesWelcome 🌍
Not one more bullet, bayonet or bomb should be sold to #Myanmar’s murderous and corrupt military junta. Singapore joins other states imposing an arms embargo, leaving only China, Russia and India as the generals’ main arms suppliers.🇲🇲 aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/12…
Truly appalling. Every University President in 🇺🇸 should immediately condemn this violent abuse of power. And while they are at it, they should also condemn the systematic destruction of every university in #Gaza.

“From Armenia to Palestine Genocide is a Crime.” This week is the 109th anniversary of the start of the Armenian Genocide. Time to end the denialism.🇦🇲 (pic from @GrafittiRadical)
The RSF militia is currently encircling El Fasher in #Darfur, threatening thousands of displaced civilians. Time is running out for the international community to prevent another atrocity in #Sudan.🇸🇩 globalr2p.org/publications/a…

🟣🕯️Today marks 109 years since the start of the #ArmenianGenocide. From 1915-1917 1 million+ #Armenia|ns were murdered by the Ottoman Empire. Today & everyday #WeRemember by demanding that states uphold their #R2P those at risk of #Genocide & other atrocities today.
Imagine you tell your child they have to pack up their entire life before they can reach a safer one. But, they can only bring what they can carry in their backpack. That is the reality for many who flee to the U.S. to seek asylum. Read more here: cvt.org/resources/refu…
The 🇺🇸🇲🇽 border is one of the deadliest in the world - with hundreds of migrants dying each year. Trying to deny people the legal right to seek asylum will push more desperate people into the arms of the cartels and coyotes. @CVTorg stands with refugees & asylum seekers.
More than 8⃣0⃣ organizations from around the world have now joined the campaign for a global torture-free trade treaty. To learn more, read this and join @CVTorg @amnesty @Omega_RF @HumanRightsHLS and others.⬇️🌍 cvt.org/articles/globa…
13,000 children have been killed in Gaza. Thirteen thousand. This is a crime against humanity.

Those who meekly serve #Myanmar’s junta are not “diplomats” - they are the paid apologists for an illegal and illegitimate military dictatorship that is responsible for crimes against humanity. No recognition, no entry.⛔️

In January the Israeli military bombed a @RESCUEorg humanitarian compound in #Gaza. Both the bomb and the plane were made in 🇺🇸 and supplied by the US govt. That’s complicity. Important NYT oped by @NickKristof ⬇️ nytimes.com/2024/04/19/opi…
