Amnesty International – Two Minutes for Human Rights

Jornal de Mafra12 September 2026 at 13:57

Amnesty International calls for urgent and independent investigation into attacks by the US and Israeli coalition on densely populated areas of Tehran in March 2026, which caused deaths and injuries to dozens of civilians, to determine whether they constitute war crimes. The organization advocates for accountability and reparation for possible indiscriminate attacks that violate international humanitarian law.

Regarding Hungary, Meta failed to effectively combat harmful rhetoric on Facebook against the LGBTI community by ineffectively applying its own content moderation policies. A new report shows that the weakening of safeguards for high-risk groups in January 2025 and the significant reduction in proactive content moderation negatively affected this community.

In Israel and Palestine, Israel is intensifying the expansion of illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank through land confiscation, including the open seizure of land in Area A, which is under Palestinian authority control. This measure deepens the settlement project and undermines the rights of Palestinians under occupation.

Angolan women and children displaced to Namibia due to drought face severe human rights violations due to the lack of safe and legal migration pathways. The fear of being detained, imprisoned, and deported influences their daily decisions regarding access to healthcare and other services. In the United States, Meta reached an agreement of approximately 15 billion euros with 47 states, committing to implement safety-oriented design changes across its applications.
