A new report by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute has detailed the growth and expansion of China's facilities for systematic repression of Uighur Muslims in Xinjiang province. 

Meanwhile in Hong Kong, the police have arrested leading opposition activist Joshua Wong.

In Libya, Amnesty International has revealed new evidence showing refugees and migrants trapped in horrific cycle of abuses.

The EU launched it's much-anticipated new "Migration Pact" yesterday...  It wasn't really worth waiting for.

Protests have re-emerged across the United States after a grand jury failed to indict two Louisville, Kentucky, police officers who raided Breonna Taylor's home while she was sleeping and shot her dead. The case is just one of far too many that demonstrate how America's "shoot first, ask no questions later" policing, particularly towards Black people, needs deep and fundamental change.

The world should help pave the way toward credible accountability and redress for the people in Yemen, 24 organizations including Human Rights Watch said today.

The people of Iran are facing an intensified crackdown. We're keeping track of it with our new Iran blog.
