In Geneva, we tackle essential human rights matters and we challenge all forms of racism and discrimination. Yet, it is time for the Human Rights Council and other organisations in Geneva to take a lead against #antisemitism and make it a priority.
Today from Geneva, we presented the first UN Action Plan on Combating #Antisemitism, prepared by SR @ahmedshaheed!
We call on the United Nations as a whole, in Geneva, NY & across all its bodies and agencies, to implement this practical guide & properly address Jewish hatred! 🧵
OHCHR’s statement regarding the death of journalist #ShireenAbuAkleh once again deplorably fails to mention the main obstacle to establishing the truth in this tragic incident: the Palestinian Authority’s refusal to conduct a joint investigation and hand over the bullet. 1/8
