Amnesty warns of ‘primitive ferocity’ by 'voracious predators' in global order

Amnesty warns of ‘primitive ferocity’ by 'voracious predators' in global order Amnesty International said Israel, Russia and the United States are leading a decline in global human rights, with the group’s secretary general Agnes Callamard describing their leaders as “voracious predators” in a new report on the state of human rights worldwide. “A global environment where primitive ferocity could flourish has been long in the making,” Callamard wrote. In 2025, there were “sharp U-turns” away from the international order built after World War II, he added.
