There is now an imminent threat to the life of Dr Abu Safiya. He has been arbitrarily detained by Israeli authorities since Dec 2024, subjected to torture, severe physical & psychological abuse, & prolonged solitary confinement. Join us and demand his release: amn.st/63322BEMbho

The NHS was founded 78 years ago today. It was built after the devastation of the Second World War when the country was bankrupt - but when the people demanded a society built on fairness and dignity for all. Today, we must defend the right to healthcare and rebuild our social security system.

If the Secretary of State responsible for social media regulation and oversight says X/Twitter "isn't healthy for our democracy or our communities" she should take more decisive action - not just leave the platform. 1/6 🧵

❗New Amnesty International report alert: City Under Siege, Children Under Fire: Rapid Support Forces' Crimes Against Humanity in North Darfur.

This weekend, our movement came together. Hundreds of members and activists gathered in Brighton for Amplify - Amnesty's Annual General Meeting - to plan, shape and build our campaigns so we can defend human rights in the UK and around the world.

🚨 BREAKING: Health workers and activists took over Brighton beach this evening to demand the UK Government terminates Palantir’s contract with NHS England.

First Minister, it's time to deliver. Bring forward the Human Rights Bill within the first year of the new Scottish Parliament. Scotland needs a Human Rights Bill to enshrine people’s everyday rights into law – so everyone can live with dignity.

Today, the government has published a long-overdue draft bill to ban conversion practices. Such a Bill has been promised by several governments over the past eight years and, after many broken promises, today marks a significant step forward in protecting the rights of LGBT+ people in the UK.

A United Nations’ independent commission has found that Israel is deliberately targeting Palestinian children. Commission chair Srinivasan Muralidhar described the “systematic killing and harming of children” including since the so-called ceasefire was declared in October 2025.

We’ve partnered with Bambi Street Artist on a special collaboration to mark 65 years of Amnesty, celebrate the power of collective action and remind us that the fight for human rights is as urgent as ever! Bambi has created two designs for our collection.

Last week saw the worst and best of Belfast. Racist hate mobs attacked people in their homes, boosted by shameful political rhetoric and far-right social media accounts. www.democracynow.org/2026/6/15/be...

This #RefugeeWeek, and every week, we stand #WithRefugees🧡 This could not be a more important time for us to come together to fight back the dehumanisation. Find out where you can join an event this week to show your support for refugees and people seeking asylum 👇🏾 amn.st/63327BD1hsP

Today's ruling by the Court of Appeal is deeply disappointing. This case remains about much more than one group. The banning of Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation is a grave misuse of counter-terrorism powers with serious consequences for human rights.

This evening, survivors, their families and this community once again walked silently through the streets around Grenfell Tower. They will never stop fighting for justice. They marked the ninth anniversary of the Grenfell Tower fire - and the lives of the 72 people who died.

As Australia are playing in their first game of the #FifaWorldCup, we want to thank Socceroo footballer Jackson Irvine for speaking out for human rights. It’s a powerful message to all footballers & pundits that they can use their platform to speak out against injustice. #HumanityMustWin

🚨The recent images of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya are shocking evidence of Israel's abuse against Palestinian detainees.

🚨BREAKING: Filton 4 sentenced as terrorists Amnesty opposes the use of terrorism powers in this case. The defendants in today’s case were sentenced as terrorists because prosecutors want to make an example of them. Today's decision shows how direct action protesters could be treated in the future

🎟️ TICKETS AVAILABLE: In conversation with Jordan Stephens, hosted by Ben Hurst. Join us for a space of reflection, to explore how young men can push back on the ideas dividing our communities and take on the social and economic issues shaping life within them.

Scared and angry at the scenes of racist violence? You're not alone. This Saturday 13 June, join thousands in Glasgow and Belfast standing for equality, dignity and justice.

The World Cup hasn’t even started...

The scenes in Belfast last night were disgraceful. Families were targeted because of their skin colour or country of origin, leaving people frightened, homeless and fearing for their safety. The actions of one individual must never be used to stigmatise an entire community, nationality or faith.

The cross-party House of Commons Science, Innovation and Technology Committee has concluded the government should terminate NHS England's contract with Palantir - citing the company "supporting highly controversial policies and activities."

At a point of unimaginable pain for Henry's family, they have called for unity. Despite this, some - including Nigel Farage and Stephen Laxley-Yennon better known as Tommy Robinson - have called for "cold, hard rage" and pedalled irresponsible narratives such as two-tier policing to sow division.

‼️ Amnesty's new research exposes the anti-trans movement. They have a plan - first they're coming for trans rights and then for women's rights. We'll only defeat them by coming together.

Last Saturday, tens of thousands gathered in London in a powerful show of unity and solidarity as we commemorated 78 years since the Nakba – where over 800,000 Palestinians were displaced from their homes.

🚨⚽️ BREAKING: Pep Guardiola steps down as Manchester City's manager after 10 years. We want to thank him for using his platform to speak out against human rights abuses while working here in the UK.

Today, reports confirmed that plans for a major Met Police contract with Palantir were blocked after concerns over procurement, accountability and public trust. We’re being heard. Join a regional call to connect with activists near you 💛 amn.st/63327B88tIv

Food is a human right. It's not a commodity.

Today marks 50 years since the UK ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. These rights shape our everyday lives. But 50 years later, these rights still are not fully protected in UK law. Illustrations by: Edith Ault

Executions in 2025 soared to the highest figure recorded by Amnesty International since 1981 – and a small, isolated group of states were responsible. A world without the death penalty is possible. And we won't stop fighting until we abolish it. Read on: amn.st/63321BBNjkF

A touch of class. #FaCupFinal #FACupWinners

Today, Holocaust survivor Stephen Kapos is at the Nakba Day demo in London as he has been for nearly all the demos against Israel's genocide for the last two years. Stephen attends with family & members of his group the ‘Holocaust Survivors & Descendants Against the Genocide in Gaza’.

Decisions and opinions by international courts have repeatedly condemned Israel for its multiple and egregious violations. Israel's impunity can no longer be tolerated, and people everywhere must act in accordance with their conscience and stand up for human rights.

Today's King's Speech must be a turning point. We need to create a society and social security system that ensures everyone has enough to live with dignity. The UK Government must urgently replace the social security regime with a system rooted in dignity, fairness and human rights.

While the government debates good leadership, too many people feel overlooked, too many people are struggling to afford the essentials, too many people are going without food.

Federico Escher, head of foreign news at Channel 4 News, gave this powerful speech at the Baftas when Channel 4 won the News Coverage award for "Israel-Iran: The Twelve Day War."

The documentary that the BBC refused to air - Gaza: Doctors Under Attack - won a Bafta last night. The documentary shows the targeting, detainment and torture of medics in Gaza by Israeli authorities. #Bafta #Baftas

Today marks 500 days of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya’s cruel arbitrary detention by Israeli authorities. He was arrested after approaching an Israeli tank that was storming Kamal Adwan Hospital - which at the time was the last functioning hospital in North Gaza & the hospital Dr Safiya is the director of.

The current noise and distraction surrounding @misanharriman.bsky.social’s questioning of recent media reporting is straight out of the authoritarian playbook.

“Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.” - George Orwell, 1984 Last night at the #AmnestyMediaAwards 2026, Adrian Lester delivered this powerful excerpt from 1984. Two plus two make four, and peaceful protest is a human right.

Thank you to Jen Brister for hosting this year's #AmnestyMediaAwards where we recognised the extraordinary courage of journalists who risk so much to expose human rights abuses.

Congratulations to Mark Daly, Jax Sinclair and Calum McKay of BBC Scotland for winning the Nations and Regions Amnesty Media Award for Disclosure: Kids on the Psychiatric Ward.

Living free from violence is a human right. The recent and significant increase in antisemitic attacks, including this week's horrific attack on two people in Golders Green, is deeply concerning. We stand in solidarity with Jewish communities who feel unsafe and fearful right now.

Together we can make sure next Thursday marks a turning point for Scotland. For too long, people in Scotland have been denied access to their everyday rights like housing, healthcare & education.

Civilians across the region need an enduring, sustained and comprehensive regional ceasefire. The fragile ceasefires between the United States and Iran, and between Israel and Lebanon, must be replaced by an enduring and comprehensive regional ceasefire. Read on: amn.st/63329BBOeF9
