“Go inside, he will kill you” A 14-year-old Palestinian student, Aws al-Naasan, was shot in the head and killed outside his school in al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, after an Israeli reservist took position on a nearby hillside and opened fire toward the school. The Guardian reports testimonies from teachers and students describing scenes of terror, with children hiding in stairwells as staff rushed to secure the building. Teachers shouted warnings “go inside, he will kill you”, as gunfire rang out. Aws collapsed instantly, and his classmates carried his bleeding body along the school wall, leaving a trail of blood, but he died before reaching medical care. Minutes later, the same attacker shot and killed 36-year-old Jihad Abu Naim, whose wife is pregnant with their first child. The killings unfolded amid a surge in Israeli settler violence targeting schools and students across the occupied West Bank. Residents say al-Mughayyir has long been subjected to repeated attacks, with Aws already having lost his father in a previous settler shooting. After the latest killings, classes were suspended as families weighed sending children back to school against fears for their lives. “We want to go back, but our families are afraid,” one student said.

@Anmaidrinrua I just happened to see this video, which I think is a video of the same incident. Same spot anyway. Maybe you can catch a glimpse yourself in it

Saw this photo today from the 90s. I was 50 meters away on a BMX when this photo was taken 🤣🤣🤣

How did she become “under the rubble”? Was she hanging out under there? Was it raining rubble and she didn’t have an umbrella?

Israel killed every single person in this photo in Lebanon. Every. Single. One. All journalists. Targeted and assassinated intentionally. For reporting the truth from the frontlines.

I declare unconditional surrender!

🇱🇧 An Israeli Soldier Just Cooked a Meal in Someone Else's Home in Lebanon An Israeli soldier posted photos of herself picking vegetables from a Lebanese family's garden and cooking in their kitchen, while the family is BANNED from returning. The house still had food in the kitchen. The garden was still alive. Everything was exactly as the family left it, except the family. Fifty-five villages in southern Lebanon remain closed to their residents. The people who planted those gardens and built those kitchens are not allowed back. Someone else is eating their food.

Hi everyone, I'm hoping for some help. In South Belfast we had two rewilded areas on a mile long strip of grass called the Annadale Embankment. The lawnmowers of Belfast City Council (@belfastcc) appear to have reclaimed these for the two weeks mowing regime. Not only have they been mowed bare again but the public employees spent time and money removing three tree stumps and even went so far as to cut away any small Holly bushes growing at the base of trees....all of which have now been sprayed with roundup at their bases. The range of wildflowers found on these places was fantastic and they were genuinely beautiful. I have been reliably told that the folk responsible hated these rewilded areas as a day on the ride on lawnmower is an easy day and that managers like it as it is an easy summer rota. So much good could be done by these public employees removing invasive species but instead public money (our bills went up again this year) is wasted and yet more fumes are pumped into the air. Believe it or not they even give the willow trees a hair cut every few years to keep them tidy. If you live in the area or even the city please email the councillors responsible for the area. The embankment spans two wards. Lisnasharagh and Botanic and he councillor emails are below. There is just one small area where mowing can be justified on this huge area. One where children play football from time to time and the very far end...that's it. Thanks everyone. We can actually make a difference to the environment.

@Tree_Folklore @belfastcc You’re probably right. It’s a pity there’s such a lack of imagination among the managerial staff of these councils. Beyond fixing problems that don’t exist.

@PaulDenver84 @belfastcc I think the main problem is that it puts the day in for the person on the mower and is an easy rota for managerial staff

I’d pay for an album of these

What’s ceasefire in Hebrew?

“Classtent” is a fun new word

Israeli forces shot and killed 9-year-old Retaj Reihan while attending class at Abu Ubaida Al‑Jarrah School in the northern Gaza Strip.

9/11 was “good for Israel”, not Iran

@Keir_Starmer How about you close us bases in England? I’m consistently amazed at how impotent you are at every opportunity

Kanye West should never have been invited to headline Wireless. This government stands firmly with the Jewish community, and we will not stop in our fight to confront and defeat the poison of antisemitism. We will always take the action necessary to protect the public and uphold our values.

I’m surprised they haven’t been considered legitimate targets yet. Shannon airport in Ireland too, don’t be surprised if missiles start landing

Do they even have bomb shelters?
