Information concerning Afghanistan’s alleged failure to suppress Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and other armed groups in the territory of Afghanistan, which allegedly launched cross-border attacks on Pakistan in October 2025; as well as the subsequent use of armed force by Afghanistan’s de facto authorities in Pakistan. We are concerned that, if confirmed, these actions may violate Afghanistan’s obligations to protect the right to life under international human rights law.Alleged victims: 437 More details... | |

Information received concerning the demolition of the Abu Diab family home located in Al-Bustan, in the neighborhood of Silwan, East Jerusalem. In our view this demolition exemplifies a broader and increasing pattern of home demolitions in East Jerusalem, alongside the establishment and expansion of Israeli settlements in the same area. The communication expresses concern that demolitions of Palestinian homes are facilitated by discriminatory urban planning laws which make it virtually impossible for Palestinians to obtain legal permits for their homes, for expanding them or for building new ones, and prevent them from accessing legal remedies and an impartial consideration of housing matters before Israeli Courts.Alleged victims: 2 More details... | |

Information received concerning alleged intentional, widespread and systematic destruction of housing and essential civilian infrastructure, and extensive and repeated forced displacement of civilians, as part of Israel’s military assault in Gaza since 7 October 2023. These acts have rendered the majority of Gaza’s population homeless, drastically shrunk Palestinian residence in and control of Gaza’s territory while rendering it uninhabitable, and are preventing internally displaced persons (IDPs) from returning to their homes. The operations have reportedly been characterized by intentional and indiscriminate attacks on homes and other civilian objects, not justified by military necessity, causing serious bodily and mental harm to civilians; use of weapons with wide-area effects in densely populated residential areas; use of artificial intelligence for targeting homes which have been disproportionate and indiscriminate; pillaging, burning, destruction and bulldozing of homes and civilian infrastructure including in the absence of ongoing hostilities; extensive demolition of structures to create corridors and buffer zones, thereby severely limiting the area available for IDPs; attacks on designated humanitarian zones; steps taken to prevent delivery of shelter and reconstruction as well as prevent the return of IDPs, all in the context of use of force and blockade to maintain prolonged occupation, attempt annexation and thereby commit acts of aggression. The military assault has also included multiple attacks on temporary housing, including IDP and refugee camps, on schools, medical facilities, religious and cultural sites, and other structures used by IDPs for sheltering, including in areas to which Israeli forces had ordered them to evacuate. Between October 2023 and October 2025, estimated indicate that at least 92 per cent of Gaza’s housing units have been either fully destroyed or damaged; over 90 per cent of Gaza’s population has been displaced; and over 86 per cent of Gaza’s territory has been placed under displacement orders or within Israeli-militarized zones. Today, at least 259,000 Palestinian families, more than 1.45 million people, need emergency shelter assistance.Alleged victims: 2100000 More details... | |

Concerns the human rights situation of Indigenous Peoples in Indonesia. These include the lack of formal recognition of Indigenous Peoples; the erosion of their rights under the revised Special Autonomy Law in West Papua; the revival of the transmigration policy and its detrimental impact on cultural integrity; and the adverse effects of National Strategic Projects, extractive industries, and green energy initiatives on Indigenous lands and livelihoods.

Information received concerning the military strikes conducted by the United States Armed Forces on Iran on 22 June 2025, following strikes on Iran by Israel on 13 June 2025. These strikes, which reportedly targeted Iranian nuclear facilities, raise grave questions about compliance with fundamental obligations under international law, including the prohibition on the use of force, non-intervention, respect for State sovereignty, the international crime of aggression, and international human rights law. We are gravely concerned at the threats of additional escalation, including the further targeting of nuclear facilities, which could lead to devastating consequences for human rights, in particular for the rights to life, security of person, health and a healthy environment.

Informations reçues concernant l'expulsion forcée et la réinstallation d'au moins 40 000 personnes, y compris des peuples autochtones, de leurs maisons et de leurs terres à Angkor.

Information received concerning the arms being transferred by and/or with the support of United States to Israel after 7 October 2023, granting direct military aid to Israel, issuing new arm exports licenses, and failing from reviewing the risks assessment of existing ones against the new circumstances. Those arm transfers would contribute to disproportionate attacks on Gaza by the Government of Israel, which could amount to gross violations of international humanitarian law and human rights. Furthermore, the information suggests that United-States-based defense businesses, notably Boeing, Caterpillar, General Dynamics, RTX, Oshkosh, Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin have continued transferring weapons to Israel during this time, with the facilitation of the Government, without conducting heightened human rights due diligence, hence fueling violence and human rights violations. In addition, United States-based companies are investing in the listed defense companies exporting arms to Israel, including Bank of America, BlackRock, Capital Group, Causeway Capital Management LLC, Citigroup, Fidelity Management & Research Co. LLC, INVESCO Ltd., JP Morgan Chase, Harris Associates LP ,Morgan Stanley & Co.

Information received concerning the transfer of arms and ammunition by and/or with the support of the United Kingdom to Israel after 7 October 2023, including the failure to adequately review the risk assessments for existing licenses in light of the new circumstances.

Such actions may amount to serious violations of international human rights, international humanitarian law and international criminal law. Furthermore, the information suggests that United Kingdom-based defense businesses, notably BAE Systems, have continued transferring weapons to Israel, with the facilitation of your Excellency’s Government, without conducting adequate heightened human rights due diligence. These businesses would become accomplices in such violations, as they are knowingly providing assistance to Israel for actions amounting to serious violations of human rights and international humanitarian law and making profit out of such assistance. Transfers have also continued despite Israel failing to implement the United Nations Security Council’s demand for a ceasefire in Gaza and the International Court of Justice order requiring Israel to take all necessary measures to avoid a plausible risk of genocide occurring in Gaza.Alleged victims: 2300000 More details... | |

Debido a la insuficiente adecuación de las nuevas viviendas a las condiciones climáticas de las islas, la situación queda crítica y conlleva el riesgo que las personas interesadas se desplacen de nuevo y se queden sin hogar cuando golpee el próximo huracán. Además, la prioridad acordada a las necesidades militares y de desarrollo económico sobre la satisfacción de las necesidades inmediatas de la población en términos de vivienda, alimentos, agua potable y saneamiento, y un medio ambiente limpio, significa una presión importante sobre el espacio vital de los Raizales que afecta negativamente su autodeterminación, sus derechos culturales y su derecho al desarrollo, con graves repercusiones sobre su sobrevivencia en tanto que pueblo.Alleged victims: 4501 More details... |

Se alega que las circunstancias de estos hechos estarían relacionadas con un posible patrón de operaciones militares que, invocando el cumplimiento de órdenes de captura emitidas por la autoridad competente, y a pesar de realizar labores de inteligencia que deberían facilitar la captura, priorizarían la eliminación de la persona contra quien va dirigida la orden, incurriendo en presuntas privaciones arbitrarias de la vida al emplear la fuerza de manera innecesaria y desproporcionada.Alleged victims: 11 More details... |

Information received concerning allegations of human rights violations against migrants, refugees and asylum seekers. The information we have received raises concerns that discriminatory policies and practices against migrants, refugees and asylum seekers violate your Government’s domestic law and its obligations under international law, including the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD), the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), the Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children (the Palermo Protocol), and the international standards contained in the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action (DDPA). We are alarmed by reports that systemic racial discrimination and racist violence against migrants, refugees and asylum seekers have been exacerbated in recent years, with this regression accelerated by the public and private response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Information received concerning ongoing forced evictions and home demolitions affecting the residents living in the informal settlements of Hlaing Thar Yar, in the Yangon region, which are reportedly carried out with a disproportionate use of force and have so far left 8,000 families homeless, without any compensation for the losses suffered, in a context marked by the continued application of the martial law to the area affected. We would also like to bring your attention that the such forced evictions and home demolitions take place in midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, thus further elevating the risk to health and life of the persons concerned. Further evictions are being undertaken, twice per week, in other informal settlements of Hlaing Thar Yar Township, with preparations underway in other townships.Alleged victims: 1 More details... | |

Information received concerning ongoing forced evictions and demolitions of as many as 12,000 homes, affecting up to 96,000 people, mostly along two of Karachi’s nullahs (watercourses) - Gujjar and Orangi nullah, carried out in an intransparent manner without any consultations with the affected populations, with little to no notice to the affected residents, with no regard for different degrees of tenure they may hold, and with disparate provisions for redress and compensation. Despite recent stop orders issued by the High Court of Sindh, demolitions continued to take place, including of buildings the owners of which hold valid land leases. Following a Supreme Court of 14 June 2021 dismissing earlier interim stay, injunction and status quo orders, there are reports that demolitions are again underway in Gujjar and Orangi nullahs.These ongoing actions are resulting in irreversible forced displacement of large populations of people, putting them at risk of extreme poverty, homelessness and threatening public health during the global Covid-19 pandemic.Alleged victims: 96000 More details... | |

Information received concerning policies to deport undocumented Haitian migrants and to eradicate informal settlements known as “shanty towns” inhabited primarily by persons of Haitian origin or descent without any consultations or alternative accommodation provided to the affected minority and migrant communities. These policies have not taken into account the extreme vulnerability of the Haitian communities in the wake of category 5 Hurricane Dorian, which hit the Bahamas in September 2019, as a result of which many lost their lives, possessions, savings, personal documentation and jobs. Undocumented Haitian migrants are being deported in violation of the principle of non-refoulement, without individual assessments and due process guarantees, while informal settlements are being targeted for destruction without any consultation with their residents or the provision of adequate alternative housing. In April 2021, the authorities started an operation aiming to demolish around 600 newly-reconstructed homes in two adjacent informal settlements known as the Farm and the Farm Road on Abaco island, which will displace up to 2,000 persons (approx. 600 families), many of them women and children.Alleged victims: 3000 More details... | |

Allegations of ongoing attacks against persons with albinism resulting in death or severe maiming, and of lack of adequate protection. According to the information received, persons with the genetic condition of albinism are being targeted in brutal, ritualized attacks for the harvesting of their body parts throughout the territory of the United Republic of Tanzania. It is reported that at least 139 attacks took place throughout Tanzania between 2007 and 2014. Investigations, prosecutions and sentencing concerning cases involving attacks against persons with albinism are extremely rare. It is further reported that when legal proceedings do occur, due process is typically not afforded to the victims, whose testimony is usually not considered, and who are not provided with legal assistance. Furthermore, persons with albinism living in State institutions are subjected to inhumane living conditions and treatment. Children in particular are allegedly subjected to severe mistreatment in the form of physical abuse and sexual violence. Similar concerns were raised in an earlier communication sent on 18 March 2013, see A/HRC/24/21, case no. TZA 1/2013. Alleged victims: 3 More details... | |

Alleged arbitrary arrest and detention of three human rights activists. According to the information received, on 13 March 2014, Ms. Balendran Jayakumari, a human rights activist working on the issue of enforced disappearances in Sri Lanka, and her 13-year-old daughter, were arrested in Kilinochchi by soldiers on suspicion of sheltering a fugitive. A 16-day detention order was subsequently issued against Ms. Jayakumari under the Prevention of Terrorism Act (PTA), and her daughter was handed to a childcare institution. Ms. Jayakumari was reportedly physically assaulted by the soldiers. On 16 March, Mr. Ruki Fernando and Rev. Praveen Omi, two human rights defenders, were arrested by officers from the Terrorist Investigation Division in Kilinochchi while looking into the arrests that were made on 13 March. They were detained and questioned under the PTA and afterwards transferred to Vavunia, and then Colombo, for further questioning. On 19 March, both men were released without condition. Reportedly, the police announced that Mr. Fernando, and possibly Rev. Praveen Omi, will be the subject of further investigations. Serious concerns are expressed that the arrest and detention of Ms. Jayakumari, Mr. Fernando and Rev. Praveen Omi may be linked to their legitimate human rights activities.Alleged victims: 3 More details... | |

Alleged arbitrary arrest and detention and lack of access to food, water and adequate housing and other alleged human rights violations of migrant workers in Thailand in the context of the flood crisis. According to information received, migrant workers working and living in Thailand have been arrested and detained for travelling outside of their permitted areas of work or for lack of identification documents as they have escaped flooded areas to seek shelter, reunite with relatives, or return to their countries of origin. Many of the arrests and detention have allegedly occurred in Mae Sot, Tak Province, at the border with Myanmar. Reports of lack of access to food and water for migrants whilst in detention or in certain areas due to migrant workers being excluded from distribution of food and other essential items according to house registration records have also been received. It is further alleged that migrant workers have been denied access to emergency shelters as some facilities have allegedly been open to Thai citizens only, whilst other shelters have required the holding of a recommendation or certificate from the Ministry of Labour. According to information received, migrant workers have furthermore had difficulties in accessing assistance due to poor or little access to information. Deportation of migrants from Thailand to Myanmar have also been reported which could be in violation of the obligation of non-refoulement.Alleged victims: - More details... |
