It is now clear that it is America itself which is leading genocidal war against the Palestinians. Israel is simply the instrument. All are equally guilty of grave breaches of international law and elementary decency but America is primarily at fault.

Taliban’s consolidation cannot be normalized indeed. It’s is not normal at so many levels but especially the mass confinement of women in their homes. Is a home a safe space or a prison?

NEW Human Rights Watch report + film show that instead of addressing the affordable housing & inequality crisis in #LosAngeles, the city government systematically criminalizes houselessness. These practices are shameful and in violation of human rights. UN Special Rapporteur on poverty and human rights UN Special Rapporteur on the right to housing John Raphling

Very much looking forward to my country visit to Uzbekistan starting in a couple of days. Once again, I call on anyone with information about housing rights concerns in that country to reach out and share with me and my team.

Yes. Let’s remember the ICK ruling that the occupation of entire occupied territory - Gaza, West Bank and East Jerusalem - is blatantly illegal under international law. All States have an urgent responsibility to comply and take measures to end the occupation.

Israel is Demolition Nation par excellence. Evidence of vast demolition of housing in Rafah, a pattern that extends far back, again shows commission of vast international crimes including domicide. ICC cannot fail to add these to its charges. bellingcat.com/news/2024/08/2…

Agreed. If occupation is unlawful ab initio, no legal right including the right to self determination can arise from it. A country can only defend its own territory, not a territory that it has illegally occupied.

Bulldozer justice in India needs to stop. I welcome this effort by the Supreme Court to take action. The bottom line: no punitive demolitions of homes anymore. Avoid discriminatory impact and ensure alternative housing if there is risk of homelessness. m.thewire.in/article/law/ho…

Housing is the number one public concern in OECD countries. Why and how to fix it? I suggest some answers in my annual reports including on the affordable housing crisis. ohchr.org/en/documents/t…

What the Israeli army is doing in Jenin and other locations in the West Bank is a continuation of the extermination campaign it has been waging in Gaza. What’s the justification and the end game here? When will the rest of the world and the Israeli public say, Enough!

Hugely disappointed at this Indian Supreme Court ruling which dismissed a Plea To Stop India's Military Exports To Israel Amidst genocide. The court has ignored India’s and its own legal obligations. A backward looking decision. livelaw.in/top-stories/su…
