The International Accountability Platform for Belarus (IAPB) has released its fifth progress report on the period April to September 2023. The IAPB made detailed submissions to criminal justice authorities in two additional States and provided support to the OHCHR examination of the human rights situation in Belarus and the OSCE Moscow Mechanism Rapporteur. The IAPB’s support for the OSCE Moscow Mechanism rapporteur contributed to his findings that a range of human rights violations had been committed by State actors in Belarus and led to his call on the international community to do more to hold perpetrators accountable, and to continue to support survivors, civil society and others involved in pursuing accountability.
