11 April 2025

The activist, political opponent, and accused in the so-called 'conspiracy against state security' case, Chaima Issa, chants slogans through a megaphone as others hold up photos of detained political opposition figures during a demonstration held by their relatives and families in front of the court in Tunis, Tunisia, on April 11, 2025. The demonstration supports the detainees during the second remote hearing of the court. The demonstrators demand a public trial and reject the remote trial previously decided by the court. They also protest against what they consider an unfair and invalid trial, calling for the release of the detainees and accusing the Tunisian president, Kais Saied, of using the judiciary to persecute those who reject his policies. In this context, professor and political opposition figure Jawhar Ben Mbarek, one of the most prominent detainees, is on hunger strike since March 30 in protest at his continued arbitrary detention. Since February, Tunisia sees a wave of arrests of journalists, activists, judges, businessmen, and politicians, including the leader of the Ennahda party, Rached Ghannouchi, who is detained since April 2023.

On October 2, 2024, members of the Comite 68 and various social organizations march from the Plaza de las Tres Culturas in Tlatelolco to the Zocalo in Mexico City, Mexico, to mark the 56th anniversary of the Tlatelolco Massacre that occurs on October 2, 1968. The demonstrators demand an end to impunity for this state crime and the long list of grievances committed against the students and the people. According to the National Human Rights Commission, on October 2, 1968, a massacre takes place in Mexico City, Mexico, in Tlatelolco, in the Plaza de las Tres Culturas, causing the death of many people, the number of which is still unknown. This event is the brutal culmination of crimes that could be considered crimes against humanity, perpetrated by the Mexican government against students throughout that year, characterized by the massive, arbitrary, and illegal detentions that take place during this period, and by the detailed planning and high degree of training of the repressive forces that participate in the events. This is described by survivors of the movement who demand that those responsible be tried for genocide. The massacre is committed by the Mexican army and the paramilitary group Batallon Olimpia.
