In fact, the latter has sought, since the beginning of its heinous violations in Gaza, to kill journalists by systematically targeting them and their workplaces in an effort to impose a broad media blackout on the entire sector. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1076&cid=148 With the participation of human rights activists and civil society organizations from several countries, Insan Organisation for Rights & Liberties has organized an international webinar to discuss the humanitarian situation in Gaza, in light of the continued aggression against besieged Gaza and the worsening humanitarian and rights crisis. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1075&cid=148 Desde el 7 de octubre, el Estado ocupante y del apartheid libra una guerra sin controles ni restricciones legales y morales, a través de la cual comete diversos tipos de crímenes internacionales, y no duda en utilizar las  armas internacionalmente prohibidas en su poder. No le importan los principios básicos del derecho internacional humanitario ni del derecho internacional  de los derechos humanos, y los quebranta cada día más. Sus flagrantes violaciones del derecho internacional son indiferentes a cualquier principio o norma imperativa internacional. Por otro lado, nos encontramos  con que los Estados Unidos de América participan en la agresión enviando su flota y sus soldados a la región, y la Unión Europea también alienta la agresión recurriendo a un silencio ensordecedor e inaceptable sobre los crímenes cometidos por Israel tanto desde el punto de vista jurídico como moral. Además, el Consejo de Seguridad;  a pesar de las graves violaciones del derecho internacional público, la Carta de las Naciones Unidas, los derechos humanos y el derecho internacional humanitario que constituyen una amenaza a la paz y la seguridad internacionales; está paralizado e incapaz de cumplir con sus responsabilidades estipuladas en la Carta de las Naciones Unidas. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1073&cid=148 Dal 7 di ottobre, lo Stato di occupazione e apartheid conduce una guerra senza controlli o restrizioni legali e morali, commettendo molteplici crimini internazionali senza esitare nell’utilizzo di armi vietate dalla legge internazionale. Dimostra un flagrante disprezzo dei principi fondamentali del diritto umanitario internazionale e dei diritti umani internazionali, con violazioni giornaliere. Le sue gravi violazioni del diritto internazionale ignorano qualsiasi principio o regola internazionale. In questa situazione, gli Stati uniti d’America sostengono l’aggressione con l’invio della sua flotta militare nella regione; inoltre, l’Unione europea incoraggia l’aggressione scegliendo un silenzio assordante al riguardo dei crimini di Israele, inaccettabile sia dal punto di vista legale che morale. Il Consiglio di Sicurezza, a sua volta, rimane paralizzato e incapace di adoperare le sue responsabilità istituzionali nonostante le gravi violazioni del diritto pubblico internazionale, la Carta delle Nazione Unite, i diritti umani, e la giurisprudenza internazionale umanitaria; le quali minano chiaramente alla pace e sicurezza internazionale. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1072&cid=148 Seit dem siebten Oktober führt der Besatzungs- und Apartheidstaat einen Krieg ohne rechtliche und moralische Kontrollen oder Einschränkungen, in dem er verschiedene Arten von internationalen Verbrechen begeht und nicht zögert, die international verbotenen Waffen in seinem Besitz einzusetzen. Er schert sich nicht um die Grundprinzipien des humanitären Völkerrechts und der internationalen Menschenrechtsnormen und stellt sie jeden Tag aufs Neue auf die Probe. Seine groben Verstöße gegen das Völkerrecht sind gleichgültig gegenüber allen zwingenden internationalen Grundsätzen und Regeln. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1071&cid=148 Depuis le 7 octobre, l'Etat d'occupation et d'apartheid mène une guerre sans règles ni restrictions légales ou morales, et commet, ce faisant, toutes sortes de crimes internationaux, n'hésitant pas à utiliser ce qu’il a à sa portée comme armes (internationalement) prohibées. Il ne se soucie pas des principes fondamentaux du droit humanitaire international ni de la Charte Universelle des Droits de l’Homme, et, jour après jour, il s’enfonce dans des violations graves du droit international humanitaire et de la Charte Universelle des Droits de l’Homme, sans s’encombrer d’un quelconque principe, ni d’une règle impérative du droit international. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1070&cid=148 Since the seventh of October, the occupying and apartheid state has been waging a war without legal and moral controls or restrictions, through which it commits various types of international crimes, and does not hesitate to use the internationally prohibited weapons in its possession. It does not care about the basic principles of international humanitarian law and international human rights law, and examines it more and more every day. Its gross violations of international law are indifferent to any international peremptory principle or rule. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1069&cid=148 Die zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen, Institutionen und Koalitionen, die diese Erklärung unterzeichnet haben, verurteilen die Kriegsverbrechen, die von der Armee des Besatzungsstaates und der Apartheid gegen die palästinensische Zivilbevölkerung im Gazastreifen begangen werden, wie z.B. die Tötung, Bombardierung und Zerstörung von Häusern, Wohntürmen und zivilen Einrichtungen, die Verhinderung der Einfuhr von Treibstoff und Gütern und die Unterbrechung der Stromversorgung des Gazastreifens. Dies geschieht vor dem Hintergrund, dass die Belagerung des Gazastreifens seit mehr als sechzehn Jahren andauert. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1068&cid=148 Le organizzazioni della società civile, le istituzioni e le coalizioni che hanno sottoscritto questa dichiarazione condannano i crimini di guerra commessi dall'esercito dello Stato d'occupazione e dell'apartheid contro i civili palestinesi nella Striscia di Gaza, tra cui omicidi, bombardamenti e distruzioni di case,  palazzi residenziali e istituzioni civili, e luoghi di culto nonché l`impedimento  dell'approvvigionamento di carburante e di beni e il taglio dell'energia elettrica nella Striscia di Gaza. Questo si inserisce nel contesto del prolungato assedio imposto alla striscia di Gaza da oltre sedici anni. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1067&cid=148 La sociedad civil organizada, instituciones y coaliciones firmantes de esta declaración denuncian los crímenes de guerra cometidos por el ejército del Estado ocupante y del apartheid contra civiles Palestinos en la Franja de Gaza, como asesinatos, bombardeos y destrucción de viviendas, torres residenciales e instituciones civiles, impedir la entrada de combustible y mercancías y cortar el suministro eléctrico a la Franja de Gaza. Esto ocurre en el contexto de la continuación del asedio impuesto a la Franja de Gaza desde hace más de dieciséis años. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1066&cid=148 Les organisations, syndicats, fondations et coalitions de la société civile qui ont signé cette déclaration dénoncent les crimes de guerre commis par l'armée de l'État d'occupation et d'apartheid contre les civils palestiniens dans la bande de Gaza, notamment les meurtres, les bombardements et la destruction de maisons, de tours résidentielles et d'institutions civiles et lieu de culte, empêchant l'entrée de carburant et de marchandises et la coupure d'électricité dans la bande de Gaza. Cela s’inscrit dans le contexte de la poursuite du siège imposé à la bande de Gaza depuis plus de seize ans. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1065&cid=148 The civil society organizations, institutions and coalitions that signed this statement denounce the war crimes committed by the army of the occupying state and apartheid against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip, such as killings, bombing, and destruction of homes, residential towers, and civil institutions, preventing the entry of fuel and goods, and cutting off electricity to the Gaza Strip. This comes in light of the continuation of the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip for more than sixteen years. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1064&cid=148 GENEVA (15 September 2023) – The deteriorating health conditions of three human rights defenders held in detention in Bahrain was alarming, a UN expert said today. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1063&cid=148 Under the title "Ashura in Bahrain: Intimidation, Security restrictions, and Media Marginalisation” three human rights organizations; Salam for Democracy and Human Rights, Bahrain Forum for Human Rights, and Gulf Institute for Democracy and Humanity, launched a joint report about the violations targeted Ashura commemorations in Bahrain during this year. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1062&cid=153 Entitled “The Reality of Cultural Rights in Bahrain,” the Bahrain Forum for Human Rights (BFHR)’s has organised a webinar, in which researcher Abbas Al-Murshid, critic Dr. Ali Al-Dairi, Al-Wefaq’s associate Youssef Rabie, and dissident Ali Al-Fayez, have took part emphasising the importance of the cultural right, which is stipulated in international charters as it enshrines a constructive societal identity that combats discrimination and exclusion. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1061&cid=153 The Bahrain Forum for Human Rights (BFHR) organised a panel on the sidelines of the 53rd session of the Human Rights Council, entitled: "Bahrain on the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture". http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1060&cid=153 Members: http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1059&cid=165 The Bahrain Forum for Human Rights monitored the summoning of 9 Bahraini citizens by the security authorities to the Southern Hamad Town Police Station, because they went to perform Friday prayers in Duraz, and due to the chants that citizens repeat before the prayer. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1058&cid=153 Ghina Rebai, a researcher at the Bahrain Forum for Human Rights, published an article on the Al-Mayadeen TV website in English about prisoners of conscience being held in the Qurain Military Prison in Bahrain. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1057&cid=153 For the second week, violations of freedom of movement continue at the entrances of Duraz region. They are measures that target citizens wishing to perform Friday prayers in the Imam Al-Sadiq Mosque (PBUH) – where the largest Friday prayer is held in Bahrain. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1056&cid=153 Since the beginning of 2023, Saudi authorities have carried out 47 death sentences, some of which against political prisoners who were executed without prior notice to their families. The victims’ families were shocked to learn the news through statements of Saudi Ministry of Interior in which the executions were announced. In addition, the authorities refused to hand over the bodies of the executed victims to their families, and concealed their burial locations, raising concerns about the fate of dozens of inmates on death row who were sentenced following unfair trials. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1055&cid=148 16 prominent human rights organizations signed a joint letter addressed to King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, urging the Government of Bahrain to take immediate action to protect the rights and well-being of inmates on death row and their families. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1054&cid=148 29 May 2023 – Saudi Ministry of Interior announced through its Twitter account the execution of 2 Bahraini men: Jafar Mohammed Ali Mohammed Jomaa Sultan and Sadeq Majid Abdul Rahim Ibrahim Tamer, who have been detained in its prisons since 8 May 2015. http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1053&cid=148 On Monday, May 22, the Public Prosecution of Bahrain announced the arrest of His Eminence Sheikh Muhammad Sanqour for seven days, pending investigation. This occurred after the General Directorate of Criminal Investigation and Forensic Science announced that he had been summoned under the pretext of accusing him of "repeating inflammatory speeches that include statutory violations, including insulting the authorities and openly inciting hatred and contempt against a group of people." http://bfhr.org/english/article.php?id=1052&cid=148
