- Paragraph text
- Social media platforms have also been used to disseminate hate speech content against groups, which has fuelled intercommunal tensions and led, in some cases, to violent clashes among communities. Following a country visit in July 2014, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in Myanmar expressed her concern over the spread of misinformation, hate speech and incitement to violence, discrimination and hostility in the media and Internet, particularly targeted against Muslim communities.

Preventing and addressing violence and atrocities against minorities 2014, para. 41
- Paragraph text
- On 26 March 2014, Special Rapporteurs issued a press statement when the local government of Da Nang, Viet Nam, decided to expropriate the land used by Con Dau village for housing and agriculture, which appeared to be a clear case of land grabbing for the benefit of private entrepreneurs. Con Dau was built by many generations of residents who had shaped their culture through the cultivation of rice and church activities. The parish cemetery, a national cultural heritage site, has been demolished and removed to a remote area.

Preventing and addressing violence and atrocities against minorities 2014, para. 35
- Paragraph text
- Some attacks may be opportunistic and take place in the context of wider political or social unrest where the normal functioning of law and order has broken down. Following her visit to Ukraine in April 2014, the Special Rapporteur highlighted an escalation of attacks against Roma in the context of ongoing unrest in the eastern and southern regions. In one incident, over 20 men in Slavyansk had entered Roma houses and beaten Roma, demanding money and valuables. Some Roma had been injured and others had reportedly left the region in fear of attack.

Preventing and addressing violence and atrocities against minorities 2014, para. 11
- Paragraph text
- In the Central African Republic, armed clashes escalated in 2014, with Christians and Muslims launching reprisal attacks against each other in a country that had rarely before experienced such sectarian violence. In March 2014, the United Nations Special Adviser on the Prevention of Genocide described the abuses as crimes against humanity and stated that Muslims were being deliberately and systematically targeted by the anti-balaka militias and by mobs of civilians in Bangui and in the countryside. He had warned in November 2013 of the risk of genocide.

- Paragraph text
- To date, the present Special Rapporteur and the previous mandate holder together sent a total of 26 communications to Member States jointly with the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders, addressing situations whereby minority rights defenders were targeted because of their work.
