🔴 Nuovo report "Cancellare ogni traccia palestinese: la pulizia etnica israeliana delle comunità di beduini e pastori della Cisgiordania" bit.ly/4xkBSvY

Video after video shows Israeli settlers violently harassing and violently attacking Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, seizing their livestock, bulldozing their schools, setting fire to their property and even killing Palestinians as part of a brutal campaign to forcibly displace Palestinians and expand control over the land– with full political and financial backing from the highest authorities of the Israeli state.
This is what a policy of state-led ethnic cleansing looks like.
Read our full report that documents how Israel is ethnically cleansing Palestinian Bedouin and herding communities in Area C of the occupied West Bank in a bid to expand settlements, entrench apartheid and accelerate annexation: link
Watch. Share. Demand action.

Sconcerto per l’annunciata adozione di un decreto-legge in materia di migrazione e asilo mentre è ancora in corso l’esame parlamentare del disegno di legge relativo già approvato dal Consiglio dei Ministri nei mesi scorsi. Il comunicato del Tavolo Asilo e Immigrazione amnesty.it/patto-ue-il-gover…

Peaceful protest is not a battlefield. In #Greece, it is being treated as one.
Our new @amnesty report exposes a pattern of excessive force, arbitrary detention and impunity, with protesters and journalists hit by stun grenades, beaten, and criminalized simply for exercising their rights.
This is not crowd control. It is punitive policing designed to silence dissent. When people must risk injury to protest, the right to peaceful assembly is already under attack.
Greek authorities must act now: end abusive policing, ensure accountability, and protect the right to protest.

This is a very important report. Crucially it must be a wake up call. Enough with too many state party’s selectivity, double standards, cowardice. The US sanctions must be resolutely, publicly and confidently opposed and blocked through blocking orders.
🔴 New report based on interviews with all individuals and organisations designated by the US administration for their work with the ICC, reveals that the US administration weaponises sanctions to deter, coerce and dismantle int'l justice efforts: coalitionfortheicc.org/news/…

✊🏾Two powerful acts of resistance against authoritarian practices and predatory power.
⚖️In #France, a court overturned a politically motivated visa denial against @alhaq_org's General Director, and Palestinian human rights leader, Shawan Jabarin, a clear pushback against attempts to silence human rights defenders.
🛑In Europe, #Spain is calling for EU action to block US sanctions against the @IntlCrimCourt, sanctions that undermine international justice and threaten those fighting for accountability and the right to justice for the Palestinian people. The EU has the tools to act and must use them. @amnesty has long urged the implementation of the EU Blocking Statute. Spain’s demand is not the end point, it is the beginning.
Resistance is built step by step. There is no time to give up. This is the time to resist #HumanityMustWin

The 77th ILC session is continuing its work on Draft Articles on Immunity of State Officials.
Concerns remain on draft article 10, and the notification obligation it proposes. @amnesty urges the Commission to consider its observations - summarised here:

Israel continues to destroy civilian infrastructure as shown in this video, which captures the Israeli army destroying solar panels in southern Lebanon.
Amnesty International has previously documented extensive destruction by the Israeli military along Lebanon’s border before and after the November 2024 ceasefire. We called for reparations and the investigation into this for war crimes. So far, neither has appeared.
Since the more recent 2026 “ceasefire”, civilians in southern Lebanon’s border villages, many of whom are displaced, are continuing to witness their homes, land and infrastructure destroyed.
Israel must stop the unlawful destruction of civilian property across southern Lebanon.

An Israeli court has again rubber-stamped injustice, extending Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s detention under the Unlawful Combatant Law, without a single charge .
Dr. Abu Safiya remains imprisoned in Negev Prison, held in harsh conditions, denied essential medication and adequate medical care, despite his deteriorating health. This is cruel, unlawful, and punitive detention.
A doctor should never be jailed for who he is or the people he serves. Arbitrary detention of Palestinian health workers is a grave crime that must end now.
We demand the immediate and unconditional release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, and of all arbitrarily detained Palestinian health workers. Silence is complicity, and we will not stop until they are free.

La mancata sospensione dell’Accordo di associazione tra Unione europea e Israele è un altro capitolo vergognoso della storia dell’Ue. Continuiamo a fare pressione su Italia e Germania bit.ly/4cAOsgZ

Il Rapporto 2026 racconta l’assalto ai diritti umani da parte di un potere predatorio. @RiccardoNoury ce lo racconta in un minuto.

Oggi, ancora una volta, Italia e Germania hanno bloccato in sede Unione Europea la possibile sospensione dell'accordo EU-Israel, che, ricordiamolo, contiene una clausola di rispetto dei diritti umani come sua condizione (art. 2). Diritti umani calpestati non da 3 anni, da decenni
Vito Todeschini retweeted
In caso di una inazione UE per gravi violazioni del diritto internazionale cogente (apartheid e genocidio), gli Stati membri dovrebbero disapplicare unilateralmente il diritto UE (accordo di associazione con Israele) in contrasto con i valori fondanti dell'UE (art. 2 TUE).

We are confronting the most challenging moment of our age. Humanity is under attack from transnational anti-rights movements and predatory governments determined to assert their dominance through unlawful wars and brazen economic blackmail.
What marks this moment as fundamentally different is that we’re no longer documenting erosion around the system’s edges. This is a direct assault on the foundations of human rights and the international rules-based order by the most powerful actors for the purpose of control, impunity and profit.
For the sake of humanity, the time to make history is now. #HumanityMustWin
