Our new report documents deportations from occupied Ukrainian territory, against prisoners’ will.

It likely constitutes a war crime and may amount to a crime against humanity.

April 25 | African Day for the Protection of Persons in Pre-trial Detention

Too many people remain in pre-trial detention because they are poor, criminalized, or lack access to legal support. Overcrowded detention harms health, fuels injustice, and increases the risk of abuse.

They survived Syria’s prisons. Now they are demanding answers❤️‍🩹

After years of torture and enforced disappearances, survivors and families still live with trauma and uncertainty.
More are now stepping forward to demand justice.

Iran, Gaza, Ukraine and Sudan. Human rights are under attack, and that’s exactly why this fight matters.

Civilians are being killed, tortured, and abused. Democracy is under pressure. Autocracy is rising.

As @KenRoth reminded us at DIGNITY: there is still reason for hope.
