🧵FIFA’s collaboration with the Board of Peace should not overshadow the fact that Israeli football has contributed to an illegal occupation, whilst receiving funding from FIFA and UEFA. Although reconstruction is important, the first point of action should be to prevent harm.

🧵As #Venezuela approves a new amnesty law, and a slow process of release of prisoners arrested for political motives moves ahead, it is vital that Venezuelan authorities invite the UN Fact-Finding Mission to investigate human rights abuses.

"When the Guardian returned to the Complexo da Penha a fortnight after the shootings, there was no sign of change."

🧵Vinicius Jr has allegedly been subject to racism, in a football stadium, again. This time in Portugal, who alongside Spain and Morocco are hosting the World Cup in 2030. Racism must be addressed by all sporting bodies and the State.

Godt signal fra Klaveness og NFF. Risikoen for at ICE/CBP vilkårlig arresterer fotballsupportere eller andre under VM en reell risiko. Reiseforbud vil også ramme fotballfans, inkludert fans fra Norges motstander NFF. Her må fotballen ta ansvar.

🧵In 2021, during the National Strike in #Colombia, Leidy Cadena was shot in the eye, and other parts of her body, with pellets, by the police. She lost her eye.

Today, two men (police) stand trial, accused of the crime.
Leydi ville si det hun mener, ble skutt i øyet.

🧵The disqualification of Heraskevych, for wearing a helmet honoring killed athletes from #Ukraine, because it is considered “political”, is hard to understand. The IOC wanted to give him a black armband. How is that different, really? Both express morning and remembrance.
