Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya stood at the centre of Kamal Adwan Hospital as Gaza's healthcare system collapsed around him. Day in, day out, he treated his patients and carried out his medical duties, working through unbearable loss and grief. He bore witness to the devastating toll of Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza. Throughout this time, Dr. Abu Safiya, like numerous Palestinian healthcare workers, refused to abandon his patients. He stayed at the hospital until the last second when Israeli forces raided it again and arbitrarily arrested him on 27 December 2024. Today, Dr. Abu Safiya spent over 600 days behind bars in Israeli detention. He is still being held without charge, separated from his family, his colleagues, and the children he lovingly treated. Israeli authorities must immediately and unconditionally release Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and all other arbitrarily detained Palestinians. #FreeDrHussamAbuSafiya

The Israeli cabinet statement as captured in Israel Katz’s social media posts claiming to treat balloons and kites flown in the Gaza Strip as military drones further strips away any prospects for moments of joy for children in Gaza, who have been denied a childhood by Israel’s ongoing genocide. Third states must act and end Israel’s genocide. No more impunity for Israel’s disregard for international law.

Since we first lit our candle in 1961, shining a light on the darkest of places, our movement has grown from a small group of volunteers to millions of supporters all around the world, working to free those imprisoned solely for their beliefs to responding to the latest challenges of our times. In 2001, Amnesty International stepped up its work on economic, social and cultural rights - fighting for the right to housing, health, water, sanitation, decent work, and education. Rampant inequality, unsustainable debt, aid cuts, tax abuse, climate change, and conflict; these are not isolated crises. These are symptoms of a global system that is failing people. Join the fight for justice, freedom, and a fairer world fit to protect people and the planet: #HumanityMustWin

The arrest and detention of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian student activist and lawful permanent resident, marks yet another violation of human rights under the Trump administration. Targeting peaceful protesters based on the content of their protest is an attack on freedom of expression, which is a fundamental human right – not a deportable offense. The U.S. government must release Mahmoud Khalil IMMEDIATELY. No matter who we are, where we’re from, or what we believe, we ALL deserve the right to peaceful assembly, freedom of expression, and due process.

The world has witnessed Israel's genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip and how Israeli authorities continue to dehumanize Palestinians to this day. We are calling on all states to use every legal avenue to bring suspected perpetrators to justice. No one should be allowed to commit genocide and remain unpunished. #EndGazaGenocide

Israel continues to destroy civilian infrastructure as shown in this video, which captures the Israeli army destroying solar panels in southern Lebanon. Amnesty International has previously documented extensive destruction by the Israeli military along Lebanon’s border before and after the November 2024 ceasefire. We called for reparations and the investigation into this for war crimes. So far, neither has appeared. Since the more recent 2026 “ceasefire”, civilians in southern Lebanon’s border villages, many of whom are displaced, are continuing to witness their homes, land, and infrastructure destroyed. Israel must stop the unlawful destruction of civilian property across southern Lebanon.

Thousands of starved Palestinians desperately sought food and supplies as a result of the government of Israel’s calculated policy to use starvation as a weapon of war. Any aid program must respect the dignity, safety and protection of the civilian population.
