Incredibly powerful investigation in Dutch newspaper NRC: Seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars — including renowned Holocaust experts — describe Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocidal. And according to them, nearly all of their peers agree.

The fact that Israel internally publishes a guide to escape war crimes prosecution is amusing enough. Let me share below some excerpts which are even more hilarious 🤣 🧵

The UN’s response to the earthquake seemed biased toward the Assad regime. With a document now revealing the regime’s theft of aid, I wonder: Did the UN lack proper monitoring mechanisms, or did it deliberately turn a blind eye under pressure?

In other cells, prisoners had drawn in the walls - incredible art without pens, just scratching at the paint - decorations, messages of love and desperation and English lessons.

Hours after Damascus fell, Abu Mohammed Al Jolani headed to his childhood home, which the regime had confiscated and handed to sympathisers, rang the doorbell, and asked the tenants: "Would you mind vacating?" thetimes.com/article/ead248…

There's been some spectacular videos coming out of Syria today showing where the drug Captagon appears to have been made at industrial quantities. I spoke to BBC News about the multi-billion $ trade and the regime's involvement.

“Top secret and urgent” classified documents found after Assad’s fall provide interesting insights about the “mechanism” overseen by Russia to manage Israeli-Syrian-Iranian dynamics, and Israeli military actions against Iranian & Hezbollah buildup. Details in this thread

Mapped out the current Israeli military presence in #Lebanon and #Syria. The map tracks historical and current zones, showing Israeli expansion over time. Although #Israel claims today's expansions are temporary, the map reveals a strategic geographic pattern emerging.

The #Assad regime's murderous dictatorship in #Syria has fallen. Syrians are elated and their moods seem to be a mix of celebration and apprehension. Amid these rapid changes, this is a reminder what the regime was most infamous for: militias, massacres, and prisons. A thread 🧵

There are reports of people hearing “weird sounds” when sitting on stairs in basements, before toppling the regime people would assume they're hallucinating, but now it's been made clear that the Assad family has built an entire city underground, in gardens, hospitals, colleges..

A new Syrian anniversary marks the fall of Assad Syria’s “day after” has arrived. There are many questions about what comes next for the country, but the images coming out of #Syria today demonstrate that Syrians are claiming an agency that has been so long denied to them. 🔗: buff.ly/4g3s9RG 📸: @mohamaddaboul0

URGENT REQUEST: I am looking for someone who speaks good Arabic and has a basic grasp of medicine to write an infographic in Arabic about refeeding syndrome. There are tens of thousands of freed prisoners all around Syria who need to be initiated on nutrition appropriately to avoid dying of refeeding syndrome

Like many Syrians who have spent their lives fighting for a better future, I still can’t believe Syria is finally free of Assad. No longer will our country’s name be tied to that criminal. It was a long, arduous struggle, but Assad is down—and, hopefully, justice will follow soon

🚨 The US has imposed sanctions on the Israeli settler organisation 'Amana'. It's the most significant action against settlers in the West Bank since the start of the Gaza war - a move that will send shockwaves throughout the settler movement 🧵
