Statement on EU’s complicity in Israel’s war crimes

FEMYSO Condemns European Complicity in Israel’s war crimes and calls for accountability and respect for International Law 

The Forum of European Muslim Youth and Student Organisations (FEMYSO) expresses deep alarm at the growing complicity of European leaders in Israel’s ongoing violations of international law and human rights in Gaza.  

While the International Court of Justice (ICJ)1 found it plausible that Israel’s acts could amount to genocide and the International Criminal Court (ICC)2 has issued an arrest warrant for top Israeli officials over alleged war crimes, some EU leaders have continued to engage with Israeli officials. Hungary’s decision to host war crimes suspect Benjamin Netanyahu – despite being legally obligated under article 127 of the Rome Statute to cooperate with the International Criminal Court (ICC)3 for one full year following its withdrawal notification – is a grave breach of international norms.  

Equally troubling is the recent visit of the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs Kaja Kallas to Israel, describing Israel as a good partner4 despite the continuous international law violations. These actions send a harmful message, undermining the international legal system and underlining that political interests override states’ legal obligations regarding justice and accountability.  

Since March 2, no humanitarian aid has entered Gaza. According to the UN5, all 25 bakeries supported by the World Food Programme have been shut down, and two-thirds of Gaza is now a no-go zone due to relentless Israeli bombardment. The breakdown of the ceasefire on March 18 has resulted in at least 1163 civilian deaths, including 322 children and over 142 000 people displaced in less than three weeks. Israeli officials have also declared plans to seize large areas of Gaza6, indicating an alarming shift towards annexation and permanent occupation. Yet, we have seen disappointingly weak statements by European leaders despite Europe’s commitment to human rights and the rule of law. Moreover, Israel is ramping up its plans to annex the West Bank. Recent statements by senior Israeli officials threatening Gaza-like devastation in Palestinian towns mark an alarming escalation and further entrenchment of the occupation. 7 

FEMYSO President Hania Chalal stated that “These acts continue to reflect a persistent lack of accountability and failure to address the genocide in Gaza, in violation of the Geneva Conventions and in customary international law. FEMYSO strongly condemns ongoing war crimes, and the crime of genocide committed in Gaza, as well as the enabling silence and complicity of EU officials and leaders of EU Member States.” 

We call on EU officials and member states to: 

  • Immediately and fully endorse and implement the ICC arrest warrants.  
  • Immediately implement the ICJ preliminary rulings issues on the 11th  and 12th of January 2024. 
  • Uphold their obligations under international law, including by desisting from providing diplomatic support for those violating these obligations. 

We also call on civil society organisations to speak up against complicity in genocide and to stand up for justice, accountability, and human dignity. 

Justice and peace will never be achieved through partnerships with war criminals. The EU cannot continue economic partnerships and business as usual. Silence in the face of genocide is complicity.

FEMYSO calls for long-lasting peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina amid the current political and security context

Monday, 24th March 2025

As the voice of Muslim youth in Europe, FEMYSO is alarmed by the recent political and security crisis in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The increasing instability has exposed the fragility of the Dayton Peace Agreement and serves as a dangerous reminder of the ideologies that led to the Bosnian genocide of the 1990s. As a youth-led organisation advocating for justice and human rights, FEMYSO stands in solidarity with the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina against attempts to undermine its sovereignty and security.

The recent sentencing of Milorad Dodik, the ultra-nationalist president of the Serb-led Republika Srpska (RS) entity, to one year in prison with a six-year ban from holding presidential office has further exposed these tensions. Dodik’s refusal to accept the verdict and his threats to “radicalise the situation” have been followed by unconstitutional separatist laws enacted by the Republika Srpska National Assembly.

Due to the attacks on the constitutional order, the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina has requested the arrest of RS President Milorad Dodik, Prime Minister of the RS Government Radovan Višković, and President of the RS National Assembly Nenad Stevandić. Security agencies have not yet executed the court order due to security challenges.

The rise in security threats, reminiscent of the 1990s, is exacerbated by the normalisation of escalating rhetoric including Islamophobia among media, politicians and the public at the local and national levels which is alarming within the context of genocide denial and triumphalism. The EU peacekeeping force (EUFOR) has been forced to deploy reserve forces in Bosnia and Herzegovina to prevent further destabilisation.

Amid these developments, the Srebrenica Genocide Memorial Centre has taken the difficult decision to close its doors due to security threats. This closure is an evident indication of the worsening situations and highlights the urgent need for international intervention. The Memorial Centre, run by survivors of the Srebrenica genocide, plays a critical role in preserving historical truth and honouring the memory of the victims. With the 30-year commemoration of the Srebrenica Genocide approaching in July 2025, it is essential that the centre is protected from those seeking to erase history.

President of FEMYSO, Hania, stated: “The closure of the Srebrenica Genocide Memorial Centre is a distressing reflection of the worsening situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The international community cannot remain silent while history is being rewritten and security is under threat. We must act now to safeguard peace, truth, and justice.”

 FEMYSO calls on the EU to:

  • Condemn secessionist threats in Bosnia and Herzegovina and urge Milorad Dodik to comply with the summons from Bosnia and Herzegovina judiciary.
  • Empower the security organs and law enforcement of the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina to ensure that any actual step towards secession by Milorad Dodik are quelled
  • Impose sanctions on Milorad Dodik, Radovan Viskovic and Nenad Stevandic as their illegal moves are a direct threat to the peace and integrity of Bosnia and Herzegovina

FEMYSO stands with all who call for peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina and denounce all those that seek to divide and destroy our societies with their dangerous language and actions.

Statement on the International Day to Combat Islamophobia

Today, on the UN International Day to Combat Islamophobia, we reflect on the urgent need to address the growing hostility against Muslims across Europe and beyond. The 15th of March, chosen as a day of remembrance, resonates deeply with millions of Muslims worldwide as it marks the anniversary of the Christchurch terrorist attack in 2019, an act of unspeakable brutality that shocked the world and exposed the deadly consequences of Islamophobic hate.

But Christchurch is not an isolated event, we have witnessed numerous tragic incidents fuelled by Islamophobia, including the murder of Marwa El-Sherbini in 2009, who was brutally stabbed in a German courtroom for simply wearing a hijab. These acts of violence are stark reminders of the very real dangers faced by Muslims in Europe and beyond.

This year’s commemoration is particularly significant as it coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica Genocide, a harrowing reminder of the consequences of dehumanisation and unchecked hatred towards Muslim communities on European soil.

Three decades later, we are witnessing an alarming resurgence of Islamophobic rhetoric, violence, and exclusion, exacerbated by the ongoing war in Gaza. Across the continent, Muslims, particularly young people, face growing discrimination and barriers in education, employment, and public life. This climate of fear and exclusion is not only a threat to individual rights but also undermines the very principles of equality and democracy that the European Union upholds.

Islamophobia is not just an abstract issue; it is a lived reality for millions of Europeans, and its normalisation is preventing equal participation in society. From education to employment, negative stereotypes and systemic biases continue to marginalise Muslims, as illustrated by the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights’ latest report, Being Muslim in the EU (2024)1, presenting alarming findings:

  • Muslim students, especially in higher education, face structural barriers that limit their academic and professional opportunities. Many experience exclusion, discrimination, and a lack of institutional support.
  • Alarmingly, young Muslims are disproportionately affected: in the 13 Member States surveyed, the share of young Muslim respondents who experience discrimination is three times higher (30%) than among young people in the general population.
  • Islamophobia affects even the youngest members of our communities—16% of Muslim parents or guardians report that their children experience harassment or bullying at school due to their ethnic or immigrant background. Despite these urgent challenges, Islamophobia remains inadequately addressed at the European level. With the upcoming adoption of the EU Anti-Racism Strategy, we call on European

institutions to take concrete action against Islamophobia’s detrimental effects on young people, particularly in higher education and access to the job market.

Our key demands include the following:

  • The incorporation of the Srebrenica Genocide into educational curricula, fostering remembrance and reinforcing the lessons of the past to combat present-day hatred.
  • The establishment of stronger reporting mechanisms to protect Muslim students in higher education, ensuring they have safe avenues to report discrimination.
  • The adoption of robust policies and measures to prevent and counteract hate speech on campuses, creating a safer and more inclusive learning environment.
  • For universities to provide continuous training in cultural competency, anti- discrimination, and anti-muslim racism for teachers and educational staff, equipping them with the necessary tools to foster diversity and inclusion within classrooms.

We are proud to stand alongside organisations committed to equality and inclusion, including

ternYpe-International Roma Youth Network
No Hate Speech Network
AEGEE-Europe / European Students’ Forum
Organising Bureau of European School Student Unions (OBESSU)
DiasporaVote!
Federation of Young European Greens
European Youth Forum
European Students’ Union (ESU)
World Student Christian Federation in Europe (WSCF-Europe).

Together, we call on the European Union to put young people at the heart of its strategy and ensure that no student is denied the right to education, dignity, and opportunity because of their faith.

FEMYSO – Forum of European Muslim Youth and Student Organisations

FEMYSO Condemns the Örebro School Shooting Attack 

FEMYSO strongly condemns the tragic attack at the educational centre of Risbergska, in Örebro, Sweden, on Tuesday, 4 February 2025. Described by Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson as the worst mass shooting in Sweden’s history, the attack claimed the lives of eleven people.  

Authorities are still determining whether Sweden’s deadliest mass shooting was driven by racial motives, following reports that the 11 victims came from diverse national backgrounds, including Syrian and Bosnian. The deliberate targeting of the educational centre, known for its crucial role in providing vocational trainings and offering Swedish language courses to immigrants raises serious concerns about the growing tide of anti-migrant hatred and far-right radicalisation.  

In the wake of this horrific tragedy, FEMYSO urgently calls for concrete action to combat racism, xenophobia, and the increasing influence of extremist ideologies. The polarisation of public debate and the portrayal of racialised communities as societal threats contribute to a dangerous climate where acts of violence occur more often. This must not go unchallenged. Addressing structural discrimination and far-right extremism is crucial in preventing further tragedies. 

FEMYSO continues to witness how political and media narratives increasingly deepen divisions, reinforcing an ‘us vs. them’ mentality that fuels dangerous discourse. When certain groups are persistently scapegoated, it creates an environment where hate-driven violence can flourish. We urge policymakers, civil society, and all communities to stand against this division and work towards a society rooted in fairness and mutual respect. 

Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and all those affected by this senseless act of violence. FEMYSO remains committed to fighting all forms of racism and intolerance, ensuring that such tragedies are never repeated.

FEMYSO denounces the Islamophobic instrumentalisation of the Holocaust Remembrance Day of Euractiv’s Editor-in-Chief

FEMYSO strongly condemns the shameful weaponisation of Holocaust Remembrance Day by Euractiv’s editor-in-chief, Matthew Karnitschnig, who used this solemn occasion to promote divisive and Islamophobic discourse.

His claim that antisemitism is inherent or universal to Muslim migrant communities is not only fallacious and entirely unfounded but also dangerously ignores a key driver of antisemitism’s resurgence: the rise of nationalist populism across Europe.

At a time when we should be strengthening our collective memory and commitment to fighting hatred in all its forms, Karnitschnig’s article serves only to further stigmatise already marginalised communities.

This reckless scapegoating fuels Islamophobic narratives and distracts from the responsibility that governments, institutions, and political actors bear in the fight against all forms of racism, including antisemitism.

We demand the immediate removal of this Islamophobic article and a formal apology for the harm caused. Such inflammatory rhetoric has no place in responsible journalism, particularly from a media platform that claims to uphold journalistic integrity.

As FEMYSO, we have witnessed first-hand the alarming normalisation of Islamophobia in European media, where Muslim communities are routinely vilified and blamed for societal issues while structural discrimination and far-right radicalisation remain unaddressed.

The fight against antisemitism must not be used as a pretext to promote Islamophobic tropes. Instead, we must unite against all forms of hatred.

FEMYSO remains steadfast in its commitment to combating racism in all its manifestations—whether antisemitism, Islamophobia, or any other form of bigotry. We call on media organisations to take responsibility in fostering narratives that promote solidarity rather than division.

International Holocaust Remembrance Day

The international Holocaust Remembrance Day is an important day to honour the memory of the six million Jews brutally murdered by the Nazi regime, alongside millions of others, including Roma, ethnic Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, people with disabilities, and members of other persecuted groups. FEMYSO honours their memory and recognises the profound pain carried by the survivors and their families to this day.  

The Holocaust emerged from a culture of unchecked hatred and dehumanisation, where fascist ideologies were allowed to flourish. The systematic erosion of dignity, the normalisation of hate speech, and the slow acceptance of discrimination created conditions that made genocide possible. Today, we see these patterns in the rise of far-right movements across Europe and beyond.

This day serves as a reminder of the atrocities committed and the importance of standing together against hatred and intolerance in all forms. The failure to combat this hatred and intolerance risks individuals dehumanising others, becoming radicalised and acting on those beliefs.

Antisemitism remains a pervasive issue across Europe today. According to a Fundamental Rights Agency survey published in 2024, 96% of Jewish people in the European Union said they encountered antisemitism daily. These forces not only threaten Jewish communities but also target Muslims, Roma, migrants and other minorities, endangering the lives of racialised groups in Europe.

FEMYSO is committed to standing in solidarity with our Jewish brothers and sisters in the fight against antisemitism. We believe that addressing this form of racism is inseparable from combating Islamophobia, antigypsyism, anti-Black racism, anti-Asian racism and other forms of discrimination.

As we honour the memory of Holocaust victims, we must also strengthen our initiatives to combat the root causes of genocide: dehumanisation, political extremism, and the normalisation of hate. FEMYSO affirms its commitments to work toward a world where the rights of all regardless of background are respected, where diverse communities can thrive together, and where “Never Again” truly means never again.

FEMYSO advocates for justice and equality and confronts systemic discrimination on International Day of Education 

On this International Day of Education, FEMYSO stands in solidarity with all those advocating for accessible, equitable and inclusive education. Education is a fundamental human right and is transformative in breaking cycles of poverty, discrimination, and inequality. Yet far too many, particularly those from marginalised communities such as Muslims, continue to face systemic barriers that hinder their access to quality education. 

Discrimination and institutional bias remain pervasive. According to the FRA’s recent report titled “Being Muslim in Europe”, 16% of Muslim parents report that their children face harassment or bullying at school due to their ethnic or immigrant background, with 6% experiencing physical abuse. These injustices are compounded by racial profiling, silencing and surveillance of Muslim students – especially those showing solidarity with Palestinians – who face disciplinary action for protesting and exercising their right to freedom of speech. 

Education systems must also confront their Eurocentric curricula, which marginalise the histories and contributions of non-Western communities while undermining the principle of true objectivity. On the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide, FEMYSO calls on European ministries of education to include this significant history of the genocide committed against Bosniaks that took place on European soil 30 years ago.  

Furthermore, socioeconomic inequalities further limit access to education for marginalised communities as a result of rising costs of school supplies and tuition fees. FEMYSO supports initiatives like the European Youth Forum’s #banunpaidinternships campaign, ensuring young people have equal access to professional opportunities without exploitation.  

To amplify these issues, FEMYSO is proud to organise its upcoming study session in cooperation with the Council of Europe: “Student Voices Amplified”. This training will address student affairs, elevate youth perspectives, and empower Muslim youth and students from across Europe to advocate for equity and inclusion within educational systems. 

We call on governments and educational institutions to take concrete steps to address systemic discrimination, decolonise education, and remove economic barriers. Education must be a right for all, not a privilege for the few.

FEMYSO welcomes ceasefire in Gaza, calls for sustained advocacy against injustice

The Forum of European Muslim Youth and Student Organisations (FEMYSO) acknowledges the recent ceasefire deal in Gaza as an essential step toward halting the violence and the killing of civilians. The destruction of hospitals, schools, universities and homes is nothing short of devastating, and it will take decades for the people of Gaza and the State of Palestine to recover, rebuild and heal- if the terms of the ceasefire are fully implemented and respected.

Student movements have historically played a crucial role in advocating for change and holding authorities accountable. The recent mobilisation of students and youth across Europe has demonstrated the power of collective action in raising awareness and pressuring policymakers to address injustices. FEMYSO stands in solidarity with these movements and encourages continued engagement to ensure that the voices of youth are heard and respected.

FEMYSO calls on the EU to safeguard the rights of students, youth and activists across Europe, ensuring their ability to mobilise and advocate for global justice without fear of repression.

While the ceasefire is a necessary and positive development, it does not mark the end of the struggle for justice and human rights in the region. FEMYSO remains deeply concerned about the ongoing challenges, including the shrinking of civic space, systemic injustices, and the persistent double standards in the application of international law justice. These issues undermine the principles of democracy and human rights that we, as a society, hold dear.

Decades of Anti-Muslim narratives fuel surge in Islamophobic attacks in the UK 

As civil society organisations, we are deeply concerned by the recent surge in Islamophobic attacks and the growing influence of far-right ideologies in the United Kingdom. The horrific murder of three young girls in Southport1 last week has been exacerbated by a wave of misinformation and targeted hatred against Muslims, asylum seekers and racialised people. Far-right groups exploited this tragedy, spreading falsehoods about the ethnicity and religion of the perpetrator, and using the incident to further their own agendas2.   

We unequivocally condemn these Islamophobic attacks and call for immediate actions by the new government which is yet to address the violence for what it is: Islamophobia and anti-migrant hatred. The normalisation of far-right discourse must be vigorously challenged, and mainstream political parties must be held accountable for their failure to confront and reject Islamophobic narratives, which civil society has been opposing for decades.  

The dangerous activities of far-right extremists, often enabled by anti-migrant rhetoric perpetuated by media and politicians, have led to a climate where racist violence can flourish. Recent attacks on mosques and the ongoing violence across the UK highlight the damaging consequences of inflammatory and divisive rhetoric.  

The current wave of hatred is not new but has been brewing for years due to divisive narratives and political scapegoating as well at the institutionalisation of Islamophobia where anti-Muslim sentiments are becoming increasingly embedded within governmental and social structures. This worrying trend is not limited to the UK but it is evident across several European countries3 where Muslims and migrants are also scapegoated, as the recent European elections have illustrated. Without urgent action, similar outbreaks could occur across Europe. Muslim communities deserve safety and respect, not fear and violence. 

We extend its deepest condolences to the families, friends, and communities affected by these heinous acts. The Muslim community in in the UK is living in fear for their safety and the sanctity of the places of worship. The exploitation of the grief of the families of the victims is absolutely deplorable. 

As we are approaching the 21st of September, the European Day Against Islamophobia, addressing Islamophobia firmly and explicitly is critical and imperative. The violent riots illustrate how easily Muslims and racialised individuals can become scapegoats. We call on the UK government to take firm actions against Islamophobic hate as the time for inaction has passed; it is now time for decisive, unequivocal measures to safeguard Muslims and champion equality and justice.

Commemorating Srebrenica: Confronting Genocide and Rising Islamophobia 

A few weeks ago, the United Nations designated the 11th of July as the International Day of Reflection and Commemoration of the 1995 Genocide in Srebrenica1, a dark stain on recent European history where Serbian Nationalist Militia killed more than 8,372 Muslim men and boys.  

As we observe this day, FEMYSO stands in solemn remembrance of the horrific events that transpired 29 years ago on European soil. On this day, we acknowledge the memory of the thousands of innocent lives lost and acknowledge the deep scars on the survivors of the Bosnian Muslim community.  

The Srebrenica genocide did not occur in a vacuum. It was the culmination of years of dehumanisation and systematic killing of Muslim Bosniaks, nearly 100,000 of whom perished in the years leading up to the genocide.  This Day serves as a critical reminder of the atrocities committed and the need for ongoing vigilance against Islamophobia in all its forms.  

The current European context is alarming, as we witness the rise of the far-right nurtured by racist and Islamophobic sentiments and a disturbing parallel with the ongoing genocides in Palestine, Sudan, and the Congo. These events emphasise the urgency of addressing the root causes of such violence and preventing history from repeating itself. The dehumanisation of any group is a dangerous precursor to mass violence, and it is our collective responsibility to combat it at every turn.  

In our commitment to this cause, FEMYSO recently held its annual consultation meeting in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and visited Srebrenica along with the member organisations in order to deepen our understanding and solidarity. Through these actions, we aim to raise awareness and educate future generations about the consequences of unchecked Islamophobia.  

We call on all individuals and institutions to join #WeRemember95 in a collective effort to decolonise history and ensure that the teaching of genocide is accurate and comprehensive.  

Remembering the Srebrenica genocide is not just about honouring those who were brutally killed; it is about recognising the signs of dehumanisation and taking decisive action to prevent such atrocities from occurring again.
