How Greek shipping companies are secretly arming and fuelling Israel’s genocide in Gaza..

🚨 L’alliance des fascistes et de la droite vote pour la violation systématique des droits humains.

Le règlement « retour » voté au Parlement européen prévoit la traque des exilé•es et leur déportation vers des centres d’expulsion hors de l’UE.

Un scandale !

[European Greens @europeangreens]

Keep US-style ICE practices out of Europe!

The EU is a project built on respecting the rule of law, solidarity, dignity and protection of fundamental rights. We have seen how these practices are enforced in the US.

We cannot allow this in the EU!

Hearing disturbing news that police have surrounded the family home of Egyptian migrant rights defender Nour Khalil, and are threatening his family members with arrest. This appears to be in retaliation for Nour's advocacy on behalf of migrants' rights in #Egypt. Nour himself was forced to leave Egypt a number of years ago because of escalating threats he faced due to his work. @PMEgypt_Geneva

We campaign for a world where human rights can be enjoyed by everyone, no matter what situation they are in. Refugee, migrant and asylum-seekers rights are human rights. Always. Everywhere.

The Mediterranean Pact aims to expand the EU’s geopolitical influence.
In reality, it's a migration deal blueprint, deepening dependence on autocrats by increasing cooperation in exchange for stopping migrants. Unacceptable and a missed opportunity to truly promote human rights.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

We UN Independent Experts firmly object a plan that risks brazenly trump int'l law.
Yes: bombs have to stop, a permanent ceasefire is needed, persons illegally detained must be freed, but States and the UN cannot and shall not bury Palestinian self-determination and justice.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

Tony Blair?
Hell no.
Hands off Palestine.

Shall we meet in The Hague perhaps?

[The Hind Rajab Foundation @HindRFoundation]

🚨 The #HindRajabFoundation has filed a criminal complaint in #Greece against Israeli soldier Naor Shlomo Dadon for war crimes and genocide in #Gaza.

He is currently attending a "healing retreat" for Israeli war criminals in Zagora, promoted as trauma recovery.

#Greece
A Black man was denied a bus ticket despite empty seats, a few days ago. A police officer said to passengers asking why, “For your safety, foreigners travel at night.” The intercity bus director confirmed this racist policy, citing a '14 law to justify the #segregation 1/

⚠️Yesterday, Italian authorities issued @RescueMed's Mediterranea an administrative detention and a fine up to €10,000.
As the Libyan Coast Guard escalates its attacks on SAR vessels, Italy continues to further obstruct and criminalise lifesaving operations in the Mediterranean.

[SOS MEDITERRANEE @SOSMedIntl]

Today at 3pm, the #OceanViking has been deliberately and violently attacked in intl. waters by the Libyan Coast Guard, who fired hundreds of shots at our ship. The 87 survivors and crew on board were not wounded. We are currently working on a detailed reconstruction of events.

🇬🇷Greece: Disturbing statements from @thanosplevris indicating that NGOs challenging govt migration policy before courts will be subject to audit.

The seemingly punitive measures would amount to an assault on freedom of association & have a chilling effect on civil society 🧵

[Mary Lawlor @MaryLawlorhrds]

Receiving disturbing news of comments by the Greek Migration Minister indicating an audit of several NGOs in direct retaliation for their work defending the rights of refugees. The Ministry should support #HRDs, not target them with arbitrary interference & restrictions @GreeceInGeneva

[Vassilis Tsarnas @VassilisTsarnas]

📢 #Greece to tighten rules on NGOs |"groups diverging from official migration strategy.. [e.g.] if they legally challenge decisions such as administrative detentions or asylum suspensions". The #RuleOfLaw & 🇬🇷's weak democracy are those on target...

Minister for Migration and Asylum Plevris announces retaliation against NGOs that secured ECtHR Rule 39 decisions for asylum seekers

Please read [in google translation] today's interview of the Minister for Migration and Asylum on the state television

[MSF Sea @MSF_Sea]

⚠️Another incident of intimidation against SAR NGOs in international waters.
🛑The EU and its member states, including Italy, must urgently halt all financial and material support to the Libyan Coast Guard.
