[Masih Alinejad @AlinejadMasih]

This amazing woman is at risk of execution.
We, the woman of Iran call on international community to help us to #StopExecutionsInIran.
Do you remember how the whole world showed solidarity with the women of Iran after the murder of #MahsaAmini at the hands of the morality police? Now, Nasim Gholami-Simyari, once a symbol of hope and life during the #WomanLifeFreedom uprising, faces a heartbreaking reality. Charged with “armed rebellion against the Islamic Republic” by the Tehran Revolutionary Court, her life is at risk of execution.
Let’s not let her light be extinguished. #SaveNasim

"from the airport now, Maryam denied boarding a flight to Bahrain by British Airways on behalf of Bahraini regime" @British_Airways #FreeAlKhawaja

[Agnes Callamard @AgnesCallamard]

When @SecBlinken meets with #Bahrain Crown Prince he must urge him to release Abdulhadi Alkhawaja. Bahraini authorities have granted releases before. But they did not include Alkhawaja. They should do so now.

[Maryam Alkhawaja @MARYAMALKHAWAJA]

As I prepare to go to #Bahrain, I am yet again calling on the Danish government to do more to save my father’s life

[Agnes Callamard @AgnesCallamard]

On behalf of @amnesty 10 million supporters globally, I will be joining @MARYAMALKHAWAJA in traveling to #Bahrain this week to call for the release of her father, Abdulhadi al Khawaja, unjustly imprisoned for more than 12 years and for that of all prisoners of conscience

[Trine Christensen @TChristensen_AI]

This breaks my heart: Dancing, singing, living should never be a crime, much less cost anyone their life.

[Masih Alinejad @AlinejadMasih]

He paid the price for dancing with his life.

Javad Rohi’s sole ‘crime’ was dancing in the street alongside fellow protesters. Yet, the Iranian regime arrested him, subjecting him to torture and sentencing him to three death penalties. Today, he died under suspicious circumstances in prison. The Islamic regime bears full responsibility for his death.

#WomanLifeFreedom

[Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya @Tsihanouskaya]

Today, my thoughts are with Larysa Shchyrakova, a journalist & mother. She's been sentenced to 3,5 years simply for doing her job, torn away from her son. This brilliant woman is held as a political prisoner like 31 other journalists in Belarus. This shameful injustice must end.

[Amnesty Iran @AmnestyIran]

The arbitrary arrest of Iranian singer Mehdi Yarrahi @yarrahimehdi on 28 Aug for publishing this song supporting the struggle of women & girls against compulsory veiling in Iran shows the Iranian authorities’ appalling lack of disregard for the right to freedom of expression.

[Amnesty International @amnesty]

Uganda must not only repeal the Anti-Homosexuality Act but also ensure accountability for the ongoing violations against the LGBTI community in the country.

[Masih Alinejad @AlinejadMasih]

Nazila Maroufian, the journalist who interviewed the father of Mahsa Jina Amini, has been arrested for the fourth time in under a year. Today, oppressors stormed her house, smashed the door, and violently abducted her. Ironically, the world’s most anti-woman regime is terrified of women more than anything else. #WomanLifeFreedom

[Maryam Alkhawaja @MARYAMALKHAWAJA]

Day 16 of my father's #hungerstrike in #Bahrain, alongside the mass hunger strike which includes more than 700 political prisoners. Watch this update and make sure you check out the @wsj article that came out today
