#Iran: UN experts alarmed by death sentence imposed on rapper & songwriter Toomaj Salehi. They urge authorities in 🇮🇷 to immediately release him & reverse the death sentence. #EndDeathPenalty ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
As 100s of students were arrested for exercising their right to p/assembly in support of #Palestine, I remind @Columbia to respect academic freedoms and student’s fundamental rights. The right to p/assembly is key for people to speak out against injustices& to mobilise for #peace

Israel's proposition to shutdown of Al Jazeera, the only international media operating out of Gaza, is an escalation of the violations of international law on war crimes and #freedomofexpression. I discuss more in @AJInsideStory. youtu.be/P7YC9zd9594?si…
#Israel’s ban of @AlJazeera is an unwarranted attack on #MediaFreedom & blatant censorship to suppress reporting on atrocities by 🇮🇱 in #Gaza where more #journalists have been killed than in any war in the world in past 30 years. nytimes.com/2024/04/01/wor…
Türkiye : RSF calls for full justice in the murder of Turkish-Armenian journalist Hrant Dink, killed in Istanbul in 2007. The trial of 15 security agents accused of acting on behalf of an illegal organization resumed on 27/03.👇 rsf.org/en/turkish-jou…

We hope her call for action and the work of many at the CoE will soon result in a CoE recommendation on Anti-SLAPP, a strong and long-lasting instrument that will help journalists and activists. Thank you, @Dunja_Mijatovic, from the ECPMF team 🫂

We call on the Thai authorities to overturn #ArnonNampa’s conviction, repeal the lèse-majesté law, drop charges against those facing criminal prosecution and release those detained solely for exercising their rights to #freedomofexpression. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
The Security Council just approved a long-awaited resolution on Gaza, demanding an immediate ceasefire, and the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages. This resolution must be implemented. Failure would be unforgivable.
The Gvt of #Philippines should closely examine the recent report of #CPJ, #FPU and #RSF on the murder of radio journalist #GerryOrtega. Prompt action from the Gvt is essential to demonstrate its professed commitment to end impunity for crimes against #journalists.

UNRWA’s lifesaving aid in Gaza threatened by donors recklessly suspending aid. UNRWA has rightly terminated the contracts of those alleged to violate our neutrality principle. Donors, do not starve children for the sins of a few individual aid workers. unrwa.org/newsroom/offic…
Exactly 40 years ago to this day I started my humanitarian journey as a @CatholicRelief volunteer in Thailand, working with Cambodian refugees. And I will keep walking that road, alongside my colleagues, striving to help people continue to hope when everything else is lost.
I'm extremely grateful to UN Special Rapporteurs @MaryLawlorhrds & @Irenekhan for highlighting the threats I've been receiving from @MalikRiaz_. Despite a significant imbalance in power, my lawyers and I are prepared to face Malik sb & his team in court. All I seek is JUSTICE.
I will closely follow tomorrow's hearing in the defamation case against HRD @HamzaAzhrSalam in #Pakistan. The concerns that @Irenekhan & I expressed in a communication to the Govt re intimidations & threats against him remain unanswered. @PakUN_Geneva See: srdefenders.org/pakistan-threa…
Some personal and professional news. With profound thanks to the institutions and colleagues that have supported me throughout the years. @qubschooloflaw @UofMNLawSchool @RIAdawson @Geneva_Academy @CAJNi @UN_SPExperts @just_security
"Political instrumentalization of the very real scourge of antisemitism must end. My office stands for equality. We will continue to insist on the equal rights of Palestinians and Israelis to live in peace," @UNHumanRights chief @volker_turk writes in @haaretzcom.
Very concerned by high death toll of media workers in #Gaza. Killings of all journalists, incl Hamza Al-Dahdouh & Mustafa Abu Thurayya in reported IDF strike on car, must be thoroughly, independently investigated to ensure strict compliance w/ intl law, & violations prosecuted
I'm very glad to hear of the acquittal of human rights defenders Fatia Maulidiyanti and Haris Azhar in #Indonesia and hope this will be the end of the case so as they can continue their human rights work @IndonesiaGeneva. Background: srdefenders.org/indonesia/.
#Palestine: northern #Gaza deprived of communications since 26/12 following Israeli strikes. Services cut for nearly 20 hours are gradually being restored in the south & center of the enclave. RSF strongly condemns these regular cuts, which are causing a major media blackouts.
Journalists, artists are looking forward to the visit of Special Rapporteur on Free Expression @Irenekhan in the Philippines early next year. #FightToExpress
Journalists, artists and protesters write letters for UN Special Rapporteur Irene Khan. #FightToExpress #UDHR75
@Irenekhan Thank you so much, Irene. Means a lot, coming from you. I am so grateful to @PresidentIRL and still quite bowled over.
In an authoritarian utopia the rulers want to establish their preferred 'truth' and blame everyone else to be associating with 'falsehood' as the government of #Bangladesh repeatedly do @UN_SPExperts @MaryLawlorhrds @cvoule @WGEID @volker_turk @Irenekhan newagebd.net/article/218307…
Israeli gov. demands my dismissal NOT bcs of my alleged "anti-Israeli mindset", but bcs I expose ISR's violations of Int'l Law, including: -Settlements as war crimes -Apartheid -The 'forever occupation' as quintessentially illegal -War crimes, CAH & the risk of genocide in Gaza.
UN special rapporteur #FrancescaAlbanese said the Australian government’s reluctance to openly criticise Israel was “not only unacceptable – it’s dangerous”. “Australia should be consistent with its international law obligations” #CeasefireNOW #auspol theguardian.com/australia-news…
