This is wild. Israel invades and occupies Syria, then fires at Syrians protesting their illegal occupation and calls them a “threat.” You’re on their land, shooting at them, you are the THREAT.

Doctors without Borders is outraged by the repeated killings of our staff in #Gaza and calls for an immediate halt on attacks of medical personnel, humanitarian workers and civilians.

CNN says Israeli troops endured “psychological trauma” for running over the bodies of hundreds of Palestinians

I’m a reporter on the ground in North Gaza, and I’m here to tell you that no aid has entered the besieged area for the past 21 days. The Israeli and American governments are spreading inaccurate information.

🚨Breaking 🚨 Munitions of war – flagged as International Traffic in Arms Regulations goods – travelled through Irish territory in the past few hours on their way to Nevatim IDF base in Israel. Eamon Ryan told the Dáil last week, 'There is no mechanism by which my department will have knowledge of the type of cargo that is being carried on such overflights.' The Ditch however – using Fedex’s own tracking system – knew seven hours in advance that this Memphis to Cologne flight was carrying munitions to Nevatim air base and that it planned to use Irish sovereign airspace. The Ditch knows. The vastly resourced state doesn’t? In the past two weeks The Ditch has repeatedly alerted government to the illegal carriage of munitions on this FedEx route. After reporting on 10 October that the Memphis to Cologne route was still being used to transport weapons components, the flight route abruptly stopped using Irish airspace. Twelve days later and FedEx is once again using Irish territory to carry munitions to Israel on this route.

It took one month for government to admit nine Challenge Airlines flights – reported by The Ditch to be carrying munitions to Israel – entered Irish airspace. The Ditch was busy in that same month. A further 14 of these flights took place. ontheditch.com/another-fourte…

Paschal Donohoe had a secret phone call with his Israeli counterpart to assure him the Irish government would “block” the Occupied Territories Bill. Donohoe didn’t record the call, which the Israeli side called "confidential", in his ministerial diary. ontheditch.com/donohoe-had-se…

So things have gone from bad to worse recently for Harvey unfortunately. While we have been campaigning, while we have all been sharing his story, while we have been watching footage of Harvey struggling to breathe, while we have been watching him screaming in pain, @CHI_Ireland took it upon themselves to remove Harvey from the waiting list. Harvey was on the list since February 2022 and had been waiting over two years, and he was removed without our consent, or even us being informed. The only reason we even know is because I queried his status again. Where else in the world would you see a child with a curvature well over 100° actually taken *off* a surgical list. Spending years sitting on that list is bad enough but to go ahead and actually remove that little glimmer of hope we had is just inexcusable. They had no plan in place for Harvey, no scheduled follow up appointments, just him kicked off the list without even a curtesy call to let us know. As far as I can tell they gave zero consideration to his wellbeing in making that decision. We have been spending so much time trying to decide if we should put this out publicly but you have all been so supportive of us, and all the children waiting so far and it just felt too important to not share. Your support helps us fight for better, because we all know these children, and the children that will come after them deserve better. From our own experience, this new task force is nothing but a media spin between CHI and @SimonHarrisTD to make it seem like they’re making things better but this is the reality. Not only have things not got better for most of us, in some cases they’ve somehow got worse. They say that they’re improving communications with parents but I have asked David Moore (the lead of the task force) repeatedly for information like when Harvey was removed from the list and he is actively evading answering. Don’t let the media spin fool you, these children are continuing to be failed and CHI and this government are not only allowing it, they’re causing it.

This is intolerable and effectively abuse. How can we as a society continue to accept this as normal. Harvey’s suffering could be prevented it’s outrageous in this day and age in a society that prides itself on its empathy towards others that we can allow this suffering to continue. #Scoliosis #Help #enoughisenough

The scale and intensity of Israel's four-day incursion in Jenin is very alarming. Israeli forces keep obstructing access to health facilities blocking and even targeting ambulances, delaying people’s access to care.

In 2001, aged just 17 Palestinian paralympian Fadi El-Deeb was shøt from the waist down by an IOF sniper paralysing him. 2001. 23 years ago.

Michael Phelps is literally referred to as a freak of nature because of his disproportionate wingspan, double jointed ankles, lung capacity twice that of an average human, body that produces half the lactic acid of a typical athlete, and he is rightly celebrated for being the greatest male swimmer in history. Meanwhile, female athletes with genetic differences are legally discriminated against and harassed to no end. This is not about “protecting women in sports” - this is about protecting a very specific idea of what a woman is.

30 days. Thirty frickin days for a cop raping a child. And, to be clear, if Trump/Vance come to power, if that little girl got pregnant, she’d have to keep the baby and this “officer” would have “total immunity”. Fuck that world. No way.

It wasn’t to be… but more importantly, if you are a victim of domestic abuse tonight, call the following number: 0808 2000 247
