It's very early days. I've shared some news and analysis from different perspectives at !syria@lemmy.world over the past few weeks for anyone looking to wrap their heads around what's unfolding.
HRANA – The following report is the result of collecting, analyzing, and documenting 9,160 reports on the state of human rights published by news sources over the past calendar year (January 1, 2024, to December 20, 2024). This report, released in two versions—concise and comprehensive (accompanied by charts and graphs)—provides analyses, including the issuance of more than 33,442 months of prison sentences for critics and the sentencing of citizens to 9957 lashes, despite the inhumane nature of this punishment. Additionally, at least 883 citizens have been executed. This report, reflecting a summary of published information on the state of human rights in Iran, along with its extensive statistical data, can be read in full below.
Human Rights Activists in Iran (HRA), through the dedicated efforts of its Department of Statistics and Publications, publishes its annual Gregorian calendar-based analytical and statistical report on the human rights situation in Iran for the one-year period (January 1, 2024, to December 20, 2024). This report is the culmination of the organization’s daily endeavors in recent years, forming part of a daily statistical project that began in 2009. It provides an analytical-statistical overview of human rights in Iran.
This annual report on human rights violations in Iran represents a synthesis of 9,160 human rights reports, gathered from 116 legal and news sources within the past calendar year. HRANA (Human Rights Activists News Agency) contributed 38.56% of the reports utilized in this publication, with 26.57% originating from official or government-affiliated Iranian sources, and the remaining 34.87% from other news or human rights sources.
In this 86-page report, various aspects such as women’s rights, workers’ rights, children’s rights, prisoners’ rights, etc., are briefly examined and statistically analyzed, accompanied by relevant charts for enhanced reader comprehension. According to this report, the focus of human rights monitoring in Iran, in comparison between the capital and other areas, remains unequal. This long-standing inequality shows that in the last year, reporting from non-central areas has decreased by 9.6% compared to the capital. This situation continues to indicate the lack of adequate monitoring of other areas of the country relative to the center by civil society.
Although this report predominantly reflects the extensive efforts of courageous human rights defenders in Iran, who bear significant costs in pursuit of their humanitarian ideals, it inevitably has limitations. These include restrictions on the activities of human rights organizations by the Iranian government and governmental impediments to the free flow of information. Consequently, while this report strives for accuracy, it cannot be considered entirely error-free or a complete reflection of the human rights situation in Iran. Nevertheless, it stands as one of the most precise, comprehensive, and well-documented reports on human rights violations in Iran, offering valuable insights for organizations and defenders of human rights to better understand the human rights situation in Iran, its challenges, and potential opportunities.
Do you know if Choice has commenting or forums for subscribers? I feel like the hive mind knowledge that makes ozbargain great would be an added bonus if it did.
Nah I have no beef with the mods. I crossposted there at someone else's suggestion and when it was removed I was curious so I decided to ask Lemmy. I imagine modding a comm that big is hard work.
Scarcella said that about 1,000 pieces of tape were used to fix the lights to the car. It was running a dual battery system, with a 240 volt inverter and an extension lead being used to power the lights.
While police ordered them to take the lights off immediately, the pair couldn’t do it: the tape was so strong that it would have damaged the paint, so they told Scarcella they had to go home to use a heat gun in order to remove it.
From memory where I was in Brunswick East each weekday leading up to the weekend topped out at 46.5C at 6:30pm. I kept wondering when the evacuations would be ordered but they never came. Mum worked for a funeral home in Sydney. She turned up a week or two later with a truck full of coffins. I guess Victoria didn't have enough on hand.
Thanks! I'll check it out.
