We are waiting for answers to our PQs on funding for UNWRA, knowing that every day the suffering of civilians in the Israel/Palestine conflict increases. Humanitarian relief must be of the highest priority to all parties. theguardian.com/world/2024/apr…
📢Join our partner organisation @AOAV on Friday for their briefing on the global use of explosive violence in 2023, unpacking trends and impacts in current conflicts.
📢Join our partner organisation @AOAV on Friday for their briefing on the global use of explosive violence in 2023, unpacking trends and impacts in current conflicts.
In many conflicts, siege warfare has left millions of civilians trapped under fire, lacking food, water and medical care. International humanitarian law #IHL imposes limits to besieging & besieged warring parties. Our legal expert @CDroegeICRC explains what the law says 👇
#Sudan remains an underprioritised conflict despite the high civilian death toll, hunger crisis, and millions suffering displacement and violence. The UK Govt has announced new sanctions targeting the political economy of the conflict.
#Sudan remains an underprioritised conflict despite the high civilian death toll, hunger crisis, and millions suffering displacement and violence. The UK Govt has announced new sanctions targeting the political economy of the conflict.
Following the revelation that the information leading to the UK suspending its funding to #UNRWA was obtained through torture, we are submitting a series of PQs to HMG. The UK is party to the #ICT, and information gained through torture is inadmissible under customary #IHL
In collaboration with @thetimes we provide a window into the scale of loss in Gaza since October. To date we have identified hundreds of families killed together in single strikes. thetimes.co.uk/article/three-…
📢We are currently working on two major issues: UK Defence oversight and accountability (focus on SF) and civilian harm mitigation in conflict. We are seeking expert input on these issues from academics, organisations, and practitioners for a consultation, please DM us.
Thank you to everyone who attended our event on UK military partnerships and human rights abuses moderated by @RichardFoordLD this week! Especially thank you to our excellent panellists from @Saferworld @CeasefireCentre @CranfieldUni @BBCPanorama 👏
Evidence by Johnny Mercer to the Independent Inquiry on Afghanistan suggests deliberate cover-ups of murders and a culture of impunity. Quote: "At every stage I have tried to find something to disprove these allegations but I have been unable to.” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Our report with @EssexHRC is referenced in this week's @guardian article on the lack of #specialforces oversight. New evidence of serious violations of #InternationalLaw keeps emerging, and we call for #Accountability and parliamentary oversight. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
This blog from the ICRC highlights the intersection between disinformation and civilian harm in modern conflict, analysing risk factors and exploring examples from #Afghanistan #Syria #DRCongo and #Myanmar among others. blogs.icrc.org/law-and-policy…
Our PQ by @StewartMcDonald is featured in @thetimes revealing that despite drones being ubiquitous to modern conflict, the RAF drone Squadron 216 has conducted no trials since 2020, stalling the integration of these systems. thetimes.co.uk/article/raf-dr… PQ: questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questi…
The conflict in #Sudan has displaced over 8 million people and cost nearly 15 000 lives. Both warring parties are accused of gross human rights violations. Now the @WFP has issued a warning of the conflict driving the world's largest hunger crisis. #forgottenconflicts

#Gaza: independent @UN_SPExperts deplore the purported use of artificial intelligence (#AI) and related military directives by Israel in occupied Gaza leading to an unprecedented toll on the civilian population, housing, vital services & infrastructure. buff.ly/3Q4OSBU
Today the UK has pledged £100 million to help hundreds of thousands of Ethiopians as the humanitarian crisis in the country worsens. This vital assistance will support people facing the devastating impacts of climate change, conflict and disease outbreaks.
The killing is not only in Gaza: “Over 460 Palestinians have been killed by Israelis in the West Bank since the start of the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.“ apnews.com/article/a1e41f…
I just gave a briefing on this to a full house at the UK’s Foreign Press Association. It was heart-warming to see so many reporters interested in holding the UK to account. Only through scrutiny does democracy thrive.
