Protect Civilians and Iranians Unjustly Detained — 3X Your Impact »

Civilians are paying the price for unlawful and reckless acts of war and violence carried out by the Trump administration.

This should NEVER happen. The ongoing attacks in Iran have caused mass civilian deaths, devastated critical infrastructure, and plunged the world into widespread instability and fear.

In our extensive investigations, we found that the U.S. violated international law when it struck an elementary school — killing more than 100 children.1 Now, the Trump administration is threatening to “obliterate” energy plants in Iran.2, 3

These plants are essential for meeting the basic needs and livelihoods of tens of millions of Iranian civilians. When they collapse, horrific consequences cascade instantly. Clean water becomes scarce. Preventable diseases spread. Hospitals lose electricity and fuel. Food production and distribution collapse. Attacking them could amount to a war crime. Worst of all, civilians could suffer and die.

The crisis investigations and campaigning YOU power with your Amnesty membership are essential to demanding accountability and stopping violence.

Before our Spring Match ends, will you make another gift in this critical moment? When you give today, your support will be MATCHED $3-to-$1, and you’ll scale our most impactful efforts to defend civilians under attack worldwide.

There’s another crisis we cannot ignore: prisoners in Iran — including activists and children — are STILL looking to Amnesty to speak out to protect them and free them. With airstrikes near prisons and detainees held in dangerous conditions, they are now at even greater risk of harm.

Narges Mohammadi, a human rights defender and Nobel Peace Prize winner, was recently re-detained for her brave activism. She shared this with Amnesty:

“Inside prison, when we protest, fight for our human rights, [and] issue statements, we face harsh repressions: like losing our rights to visitation or telephone. We rely on one key difference from political prisoners of past decades: the voice of institutions like Amnesty International.

Your support gives us hope. Resistance without a voice achieves nothing, and you are our voice.”

Narges Mohammadi is a prominent Iranian human rights activist and journalist who was awarded a Nobel Peace Prize for her fight against the oppression of women in Iran. She remains imprisoned in Iran's notorious Evin prison despite facing severe health issues and Amnesty is advocating for her freedom.

We must scale our emergency response in Iran — where Narges remains held in prison — and across the Middle East, including in Gaza, where Palestinians remain under attack.

We must show up stronger for everyone whose life is at risk right now.

As part of our Amnesty Spring Match, your generous gift will go 3X as far to ensure that we can continue to:

  • Investigate attacks on civilians from the U.S. and Israel and from Iranian authorities;
  • Document and share eyewitness accounts from people on the ground to ensure that their voices are heard and not silenced;
  • Demand that all parties to this conflict uphold their obligations under international law — and hold those responsible for violations accountable when they occur.

As a watchdog organization, we won’t let any violations happen in secret. We will use our research expertise and our strength in numbers to protect civilians for as long as it takes. It’s what we do.

MAKE A 3X EMERGENCY GIFT

Thank you for driving our response. We’ll keep you updated on our investigations.

With gratitude,
