I spoke to @BBCTimFranks on @bbcworldservice about the despair felt by Rohingya as Myanmar remains under military rule and mentioned Anwara Begum, who’s had to flee to Bangladesh three times despite her young child dying there in the 90s (38 mins in) https://t.co/I60cPam13m

Military tanks rolling into the streets of the capital in the dark, access to information restricted overnight, people risking arrest if they were to speak out, vulnerable groups rendered even more vulnerable.

You elect a war criminal, you get a 'war'. #lka #SriLanka

Update on what's going on in #SriLanka . Thinking of all my friends there ..

[Amalini @Amaliniii]

While we're mostly set up on VPNs now, for the last month large sections of the population have been without news in this way. And no, digi folks, not everyone in Lanka has phone reception, much less social media access. #lka #SriLanka

🇸🇪 #Sweden: UN experts urge Sweden not to issue a licence for an iron-ore mine in the Gállok region, home of the indigenous Sámi people, saying the mine will generate vast amounts of pollution and toxic waste, and endanger reindeer ‘herding’: https://t.co/7ByjH4IOfE

To those who ask, so, how will #Taliban victory impact on #Bangladesh, I say, let's get back to basics: why did US & NATO invade #Afghanistan in 2001? It was illegal. 20 yrs later there is still no proof dat al-Qaeda was behind Twin Tower attacks, or dat Afghanistan was complicit

[Muktasree Chakma @SathiChakma]

@TMnY Ha ha ha , who pissed you off ?

[Ayesha Noor @AyeshaNRashid]

A thread…

The Taliban claims they will guarantee women’s rights “under the limits of Islam.” As a Muslim woman, I don’t believe a word they say. But let me tell you about the guarantees Islam makes for women, and you’ll see why I don’t believe the Taliban.
