👉Businesses operating in Russia & Belarus must proceed with extreme diligence, if needed responsibly disengage to avoid being linked to violations of international law. Huge legal, economic & reputational risks.
👉 Govs must step up sanctions.

📣❝We call on states to take the strongest measures to condemn the atrocities, to call for the exclusion of #Russia from the #HumanRightsCouncil, for the establishment of an arms embargo on #Russia and #Belarus❞ @ilya_nuzov #FIDH👇

Amnesty International’s Crisis Evidence Lab analyzed digital evidence — including photos, videos and satellite imagery of indiscriminate attacks in #Ukraine. They have verified violations of international law which could amount to war crimes.

We have AMAZING news: Daw Myo Aye, leader of Solidarity Trade Unions of Myanmar (STUM), has been released from prison! She was held in Insein prison since April, known for inhumane conditions&overcrowding. Daw Myo Aye's health was deteriorating but she was denied medical care.

Like the rest of the human rights community, we are shocked by the attack against @hrc_memorial yesterday during a screening of a film about the #Holodomor as well as the subsequent raid by law enforcement of Memorial's offices and detention of Memorial staff members. 1/2
