Dear @FortifyRights
At least 11 Canadians have reportedly been abducted after Israel hijacked the Sumud Flotilla in international waters. One of them is Ko Tinmaung, a Rohingya activist.
So a simple question for Fortify Rights:
What is your Global Leadership Council doing about the detention of these Canadians and specifically about the detention of a Rohingya human rights activist?
Is Fortify Rights pressing Canada for urgent consular action? Is Irwin Cotler, a former Canadian justice minister and one of Israel’s most prominent international defenders (and a member of your Leadership Council), using his standing to demand protection and release?
Or does “global leadership” stop when the abusing state is Israel?
Myanmar just employed Roger Stone as a lobbyist. Trump admin is already interested in securing critical minerals in this war-torn nation, and this will help smooth US-Myanmar relations.

To every young woman and man, educators,artists,photographers, journalists,writers,Molvis, IT experts,speakers,mentors,and human rights defenders,
The Arakan Army (AA) abducted seven Rohingya people in Buthidaung on April 30. The AA is demanding 1 million MMK per person for their release. These families are very poor and have no way to pay, leaving them in a desperate situation.

Welcome to my new account as the @UNHumanRights Special Rapporteur on #Myanmar
I want to thank my predecessor @RapporteurUn Tom Andrews for his great work over the past 6 years and wish him the best as he begins a new mandate on #Cambodia. Look forward to working together!
Justice must be served.
Due to threats from RCPR, led by Dil Mamod, Mohammad Ullah was forced to leave the camp and died in the sea.
Hold them accountable.
Stop the oppression.
Stand for Justice
End Illiterate leadership
Junta parasite is also our enemy.

I had the opportunity to lecture on the Rohingya genocide today at Western University. The students and faculty showed a profound interest in exploring the richness of Rohingya culture, as well as understanding the devastating consequences of the genocide.

Today, #inclusion often means inviting a survivor to share a three-minute testimony at the beginning of a meeting and then leaving the real decisions to diplomats and experts. It allows institutions to say they have listened to affected communities without changing…

In Gaza, #WestBank & East Jerusalem, Palestinians are subjected to a continuum of suffering - @FranceskAlbs denounces torture of Palestinians, says it extends beyond Israeli prison walls. “There is no refuge. No safe place to exist.” @UN_HRC#HRC61

BREAKING: Trump admin gets caught in disgusting lie as ICE tries to argue that the blind refugee they all but killed ASKED THEM to leave him at a closed coffee shop in the freezing cold!
Nurul Amin Shah Alam, a 56-year-old refugee from Myanmar who was nearly blind and spoke almost no English, was released from Erie County jail on February 19, 2026.
Smelling blood, ICE agents immediately took him into custody due to an immigration detainer placed on him during his release process.
They determined he had entered the United States as a refugee in late 2024, and was not amenable to removal. But instead of helping him find his family, they dropped him off at a CLOSED Tim Hortons restaurant a mile from his last address – in freezing weather, wearing only orange jail booties, no phone, NO COAT.
His body was found five days later, four miles away. The area had had light freezing rain, snow, and fog, with temperatures in the low 30s for days.
Border Patrol and Customs claims agents used a translator program, offered a courtesy ride, and Shah Alam “chose” the coffee shop as a “warm, safe location.” They say he showed “no signs of distress, mobility issues, or disabilities requiring special assistance.”
That claim is laughable. A nearly blind man who doesn’t speak English “politely asked” to be left at a closed Tim Hortons in a snowstorm? Outside in winter is “warm and safe” for a man from sub-tropical Myanmar in jail booties? Seriously?
Buffalo Mayor Sean Ryan wasn’t having it, calling the man’s death “preventable” and “inhumane.” “That is bad policing, but that is also [being] bad human beings,” Ryan said.
This is not a question of competence, but abject cruelty. The Trump administration is so obsessed with mass deportations that they treat vulnerable refugees like trash, tossing them aside without a second thought once they find out they can’t be added to the deportation dossier, then making up a crap story in a pathetic attempt to cover their tracks.
A man who came to this country legally as a refugee, who had a family and a life here, was abandoned in subzero conditions and died. His family didn’t even know where he was.
The administration wants us to believe ICE agent behave like choirboys, but the truth is they left a disabled, confused man to DIE in the cold because he was an immigrant. This is what happens when racism dehumanization becomes policy.
If this story of cruelty and lies makes your blood boil, like and share to demand answers. These are human beings, not numbers.
