Bhopal - 25 years after the world's worst industrial accident.

December 3rd (Thursday), is the 25th anniversary of the infamous Union Carbide gas leak in the Indian city of Bhopal. I recently travelled to Bhopal to document the horrendous legacy the population faces a quarter of century from the disaster.

Here's a recent story of mine published by The Age in Australia. The piece also ran in the Brisbane Times.

While you’re here…

Like you, we are horrified by the violence and the civilian death toll in Gaza, Israel and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. We’re calling for an immediate ceasefire by all parties in the occupied Gaza Strip and Israel to prevent further loss of civilian lives. Amnesty International is investigating mass summary killings, indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, hostage-taking, and siege tactics.

As ever, our mission to protect human rights remains. Please donate today to help expose war crimes and protect human rights. Thank you.
