In wake of #Rohingya Genocide Remembrance Day @tunkhin80 and I reflect on a decade of visiting the camps and how: "The best way to commemorate this event is not only to recognize ongoing challenges, but also to seek out ways to rebuild." @WPReview worldpoliticsreview.com/rohi…

August 25 marks nine years since the Myanmar military launched a genocidal attack against the Rohingya population in Rakhine State. "We want to go back to our home, to our country. We want justice, and we want our rights to be restored," says Hazera Khatu, a Rohingya genocide survivor and refugee in Bangladesh. Nine years on, justice and accountability remain out of reach. The U.N. member states should take action to end impunity and ensure lifesaving support for Rohingya refugees.

An RSF attack on El Obeid could put 500,000+ people at risk, including 100,000 internally displaced people in the city. If El Obeid falls like El Fasher, the UAE cannot claim that the outcome was beyond its control. Full statement from @EndGenocideDan. refugeesinternational.org/st…

Same sponsor. Two realities. The @NBA is partnering with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on a $300M deal while Sudan burns. No matter who wins the NBA Finals, the people of Sudan lose. The @NBA made the wrong call. End the @emirates deal bloodontheball.org #EmiratesNBACup

🧵1/ The NBA should divest from the UAE until it ends support for the RSF in Sudan. Sudan is facing one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises: more than 11 million people displaced, widespread atrocities, and millions facing hunger and famine.

The @NBA is suddenly changing course. For 75 years, NBA players and coaches have stood up against injustice. But today, the NBA has a $300M sponsorship with the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The UAE also sponsors a genocidal militia in Sudan with weapons & drones that kill civilians. The NBA made the wrong call. End the @emirates deal. Learn more and act now: bloodontheball.org

NEW: Colombian private military contractors, apparently hired by a United Arab Emirates (UAE)-based company, transited through UAE military bases before being deployed to Sudan to support the abusive Rapid Support Forces (RSF). This is further evidence indicating that the UAE is assisting or otherwise substantially contributing to the Rapid Support Forces’ capacity to commit war crimes.
