The President’s decision to unilaterally dismiss 57 judges is an affront to the rule of law and judicial independence in Tunisia and must be reversed, said the International Commission of Jurists today.
The International Commission of Jurists strongly condemns the killing of Al Jazeera veteran correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh, who according to witness testimonies was shot dead by Israeli forces on 11 May 2022 while covering Israeli incursions in Jenin, West Bank.
A new Question-and-Answer (Q&A) briefing by the International Commission of Jurists (ICJ) examines Decree 2022-11 and its detrimental impact on the independence of the judiciary in Tunisia in light of international and human rights law and standards.

Israel must end the cycle of impunity for crimes under international law committed by Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and overhaul its accountability framework and procedures, the ICJ said today.
Until then, the international community should fully support the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) investigation into the Situation in Palestine, as the sole avenue of accountability for past and ongoing crimes falling under the jurisdiction of the Court.
