#Philippines: Three years ago today, #HumanRightsDefender #ZaraAlvarez was murdered. Whenever communities on Negros were red-tagged, criminalized or threatened by violence, they would turn to her. Even after they put her in prison and threatened her and her family, she would not stop fighting for #HumanRights.

Three years later, there is still no accountability for her death. In the Philippines #impunity prevails

Belarus: 🇪🇺condemns the sentencing of #HumanRightsDefender Nasta Loyka to prison for a contribution to an independent #humanrights report in 2018. Freedom of expression is a fundamental right. Nasta & all political prisoners should be immediately released. https://apnews.com/article/belarus-human-rights-crackdown-18e389887170a6e7b33de45d03bb787c

The health situation of #humanrightsdefender Irina Danilovich, detained in Crimea since April '22 & tortured, keeps deteriorating. As she does a dry hunger strike to protest her treatment, international community must not abandon her, and all others illegally detained in #Crimea.
