“Following nearly 6 months of unrelenting Israeli assault on occupied #Gaza, it is my solemn duty to report on the worst of what humanity is capable of & to present my findings: 'the Anatomy of a Genocide'.” — Special Rapporteur @FranceskAlbs at @UN Human Rights Council. #HRC55

Famine in the northern part of Gaza is imminent. 1.1 million people in Gaza are facing catastrophic hunger - the highest number of people ever recorded –anywhere, anytime. This is an entirely manmade disaster. And it can - and must - be halted.

The noose around the civilian population in Gaza is tightening. How are 1.1 million people supposed to move across a densely populated warzone in less than 24 hours? I shudder to think what the humanitarian consequences of the evacuation order would be.

Long overdue but great to see: President Biden on behalf of the US declares that the mass killings of Armenians by the Ottomans were genocide. We have to be as willing to speak up about today's atrocities, without waiting for a century to pass. nytimes.com/2021/04/24/us/…
