Human rights violations occur when individuals or groups are denied their basic rights and freedoms. These rights include the right to life, freedom of speech, and the right to a fair trial. When governments or organizations ignore or abuse these rights, it can lead to suffering and injustice for many people. Examples include torture, discrimination, and unlawful imprisonment.
Such violations can happen anywhere in the world, affecting various communities and individuals. Organizations like Amnesty International work to raise awareness and advocate for those whose rights are being violated. By shining a light on these issues, they aim to promote justice and protect the dignity of all people.
