A shameful fact: Of the 11 detainees just sent by the U.S. government from Guantanamo to Oman, none had been charged with crimes during their two decades of detention. https://t.co/SlHnmzd8ZN

I hope they release their comprehensive legal analysis.

May prove useful in other situations.

My first monograph "Protection of Human Life at Sea in International Law: Rescuing Maritime Migrants" with Routledge in Law and Migration series, will be available this June 2025.

Preface by Giovanni Bonello (Judge of the European Court of Human Rights 1998-2010), reflecting his profound wisdom on the current humanitarian situation of migration in the Mediterranean Sea.

Perfect Christmas present to see this online, available for pre-order 🎁

IDF just admitted they shot their own hostages ….

I saw this last night. Agree that everyone should see it

[Loss and Damage Collaboration (L&DC) @LossandDamage]

2/2 *⚠️Spoiler: The WIM is governed by the COP (@UNFCCC) and CMA (#ParisAgreement) ! Yet developed countries want it only to be governed by the CMA as they once again try to side-step obligations under the @UNFCCC for #LossAndDamage finance.

Deluge of hypocrisy, exposed (here a fragment).

[Priya Pillai @PillaiPriy]

It's done! Resolution adopted by the #UN for a new crimes against humanity treaty, and a timeline in place. Time to get down to (more) work! #CaHTreatyNow

[Jane McAdam @profjmcadam]

Delighted to publish this piece with @ChiaraScissa showing how courts are already using #refugee and human rights law to protect people fleeing the impacts of climate change and disasters #COP29

Wow. Well done Denmark!

Likely raped to death.
A doctor. A stellar surgeon. The embodiment of Palestinian ethics.
Likely raped to death.

The racism of Western media who are not covering this, and Western politicians who are not denouncing this, together with the thousand other testimonies and allegations of rape and other forms of mistreatment and torture that Palestinians have suffered in Israeli jails, is absolutely sickening.

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

The UN Security Council is expected to meet in two hours to vote on a draft resolution demanding an immediate, unconditional, and permanent ceasefire as well as the release of all hostages. The US should NOT veto. No more indulging Israel's endless war. https://t.co/3Rvu8PPypO

@NDFTan Congratulations Nik.

Hey, all is not lost. Per Republican legal theory, Vice President Kamala Harris could just declare herself the winner on January 6th, right?

[Marcel Dirsus @marceldirsus]

I can't take another 4 years of policy papers, op-eds and panel discussions about European strategic autonomy. I'm begging European governments to just buy tanks. Add assembly lines, build factories, order ammunition. Get more drones, fly more planes. Make sure ships can sail.
