❗️BREAKING❗️Rescuers killed in line of duty. Scenes like this unfold every moment in Gaza, often unseen, largely undocumented. I beg STATES: how much more must be witnessed before you act to stop this carnage? 🔴Break the blockade 🔴Impose an Arms Embargo 🔴Impose Sanctions.

“We are breaking the bodies and the minds of the children of Gaza.” WHO’s emergencies director, Mike Ryan, expressed his frustration about the devastating situation unfolding in Gaza, stating that the world is allowing this “abomination” to continue

Today Trump and Netanyahu talked about their plan to have Palestinians "voluntarily" leave Gaza.   Let's be clear: nothing about this is voluntary — it would mean the coerced deportation of 2 million people from Gaza and U.S. taxpayers should have NOTHING to do with it.

❌ALARMING❌The Israeli government's formally announced intention to permanently annex the entire occupied West Bank is such a serious and egregious violation of int'l law, that if not halted, the collapse of the multilateral system built on universal principles (such as sovereignty, self-determination, primacy of int'l law) will be unavoidable.

BREAKING - Since morning, I've been receiving distressing reports of Israeli Occupation Forces conducting military operations/assaults in northern West Bank. Reports of civilians, incl. medical personnel, arrested/detained or killed, are being verified. Meanwhile, in Gaza, attacks on highly distressed civilians continue, amid severe shortage of food and other essential supplies. As per ICJ deliberations, Israel must withdraw its troops from the occupied Palestinian territory; and it's time for the UN to deploy a protective presence to prevent further harm to the occupied Palestinian population.

"He had no organs ... I saw his brains coming out." Speaking to TRT World, American volunteer surgeon, Dr Mark Perlmutter, describes how Israeli forces brutally shot a six-year-old in Gaza to the point that his body fell apart Watch the full show: trt.world/vqz6

The US’s top diplomat Antony Blinken is facing calls for his resignation over allegations he lied to Congress about Israeli forces blocking US aid for besieged Gaza.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza has just published a 649-page document with the the name, age, gender, ID number of every Palestinian killed in Gaza from October 7 to August 31 that it has info for (over 34k out of 40k). The 1st 14 pages the age is listed as 0 (under 1 year old)

Pakistan Curling, under the umbrella of Winter Sports Federation Pakistan, is humbled to have been promoted from conditional to provisional membership by our fellow member associations at the 2024 @worldcurling congress in Montreal. #curling

So excited!!

Name: Asmaa Hameed Crime: She was born Palestinian. All she ever dreamed of was to play without fear, to live in a place without fear. Her father bought her roller skates so she could escape the reality of war and fear. Today, the Israeli army killed her while she was playing in her roller skates.

A lot of people in the US don’t seem to know what Israel did to Palestinians before Oct 7. Here is a quick rundown.🧵

Don’t just observe this grief: note the consequences. These atrocities are too extreme, too grotesque, too shameless. They are whipping up fury of unimaginable intensity, in every country of the world. A bitter harvest is being sown, and it will be reaped.

"This is our conception of security: the way we keep us secure is to abuse, to kill." Investigations by CNN, the UN, and Israeli media exposed alleged abuse of Palestinians in Israeli detention centers, which the IDF and the prison service have denied. Now a new report from @btselem gathers testimony from former detainees, alleging serious abuses and deaths of Palestinians across multiple prisons and detention centers. I spoke with B'Tselem's executive director, Yuli Novak, about what she says is "a pattern" that makes her "ashamed, as an Israeli."

“The entire unjust world does not care about this. That’s all I can say.” Heartbreaking testimony in the wake of the killing of newborn twins and their mother in Gaza -- leaving behind a father whose world is shattered. Correspondent @JDiamond1 reports.

The Israeli military is deliberately killing children. The evidence for this is overwhelming, and those denying it are atrocity deniers.

Canadian doctor Ben Thompson tells the story of a doctor in Gaza who was forced to strip naked and stand for two days by Israeli occupation forces, urinating, and deficating where he stood. He was only allowed then to treat his patients while naked.
