This submission was prepared for the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of Somalia in May 2021. In it, Amnesty International evaluates the implementation of recommendations made to Somalia in its previous UPR, including in relation to taking measures to prevent violations of human rights and international humanitarian law within the framework of military operations, enacting laws to address gender inequalities, sexual violence and women’s rights, to improve freedom of expression and media freedom and to take all the necessary steps to halt forced evictions of internally displaced people.
