The Egyptian authorities must control their forces at the border with Israel and prevent them from killing migrants attempting to cross it, Amnesty International said on Wednesday. The call follows the deadliest border incident this year, in which four men were shot dead by Egyptian security forces as they attempted to cross the border into Israel. Two others were also injured in the incident.
The Chadian government must stop the forced evictions that have left tens of thousands homeless in the capital city of N'Djamena, Amnesty International has said.
Following a large-scale police operation, the families are now sleeping under plastic sheeting on land opposite the site of the
eviction. They are without food or blankets in cold, wet conditions.
More than 200,000 people living in camps with limited access to food, also face human rights abuses by both the army and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF), says a new Amnesty International report.
Hundreds of thousands of people displaced by the recent war in North
East Sri Lanka and living in camps are being denied basic human rights
including freedom of movement.
One year on from the war between Georgia and the Russian Federation,
thousands of civilians remain stranded from their homes with little
prospect of imminent return.
