We interviewed UNSR on Human Rights Defenders Mary Lawlor, before her report on Greece launches tomorrow. She expressed shock, dismay and frustration with Greece, the EU and Western world: koraki.org/post/un-sr-it-sho… @IHaveRights_eu @katrineinert @SeebrueckeFfm @findingrefugegr

Today in Apartheid, the brave Israeli military that gets billions in US tax dollars annually, chased 7 year old Palestinian boy Rayan Suleiman to his death.

A powerful statement by @Tineke_Strik on the situation for #asylumseekers in #Greece:
➡️Their rights are brutally trampled
➡️They’re pushed into Turkish waters/land
➡️Migrants are forced to pushback other migrants
➡️Those helping are restricted, criminalised & silenced
Yesterday, I told the Greek Prime Minister that covering up evidence of pushbacks won’t work. Evidence is recorded by UN bodies, NGOs and investigative journalists. European judges refuse to accept a reality that violates core EU values.
That, @kmitsotakis, is Europe.
Last Ramadan, Duniya House became a place where people could come and worship with fellow Muslims. Duniya House residents and many other Muslim would gather at Duniya House in the late evenings to perform the Ramadan nightly prayers of taraweeh.
"Being a refugee is not an easy thing. This video highlights the painful experience of being a refugee, of losing everything, and the struggle of finding home.
