#Gaza: airdrops will not reverse the deepening starvation. They are expensive, inefficient & can even kill starving civilians. It is a distraction & screensmoke. A manmade hunger can only be addressed by political will. Lift the siege, open the gates & guarantee safe movements…
The Western states that say they'll wait for a peace agreement with Israel before recognizing a Palestinian state are being disingenuous. Netanyahu is determined to prevent a Palestinian state, so his "peace" is either apartheid or mass expulsion. dw.com/en/which-count…
De ryska ockupanterna målade ett brinnande Z och en prorysk gumma på fängelseväggen. Ukrainare som vägrade foga sig torterades med elstötar och batonger och tvingades sjunga ryska nationalsången. Läs vårt reportage från tortyrfängelset i Kupjansk dn.se/varlden/elchoc…
Det som nu pågår inför våra ögon i Gaza är ett av efterkrigstidens värsta brott mot mänskligheten. -> ”FN: En tredjedel av Gaza äter inte på flera dagar” (via @omni_red) omni.se/a/1MLVwG
Trots att Eswatini ligger högt upp på listan över länder som har de sämsta villkoren för fackföreningar och löntagare har landets parlament antagit en ny lag som ger löntagare rätt att arbeta under säkra och hälsosamma förhållanden. Läs mer: palmecenter.se/eswatini-fackl… @LOInternation

A report by +972 reveals that after a site is bombed, it’s often struck again to hinder rescue efforts. Soldiers and eyewitnesses say the practice has become routine in Gaza — and it even has a name: “double tap.” @yuval_abraham @972mag 972mag.com/double-tap-isr…
Never have I met such deep frustration and despair among @UN colleagues as today about Gaza. Massive death, destruction and starvation strike civilians, incl aid workers and journalists. Now is the time for the UNSG to summon the SecCo on the basis of Art 99 of UN Charter.
Consistent with its historic commitment to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East, I have decided that France will recognize the State of Palestine. I will make this solemn announcement before the United Nations General Assembly this coming September.…

Entirely man made. Only political will & leadership can reverse full-fledged starvation. Are we truly committed to “never again” ? #Gaza
Crowds of starving men, women, and children in #Gaza wait for little food. Some people go for days without eating. UNRWA has not been able to bring in any food for over four months. Lift the siege.

There have been many difficult days for our team in Gaza. Today, we reached a new low point. This cannot continue.

EU beslöt att inte suspendera avtalet med Israel för brott mot folkrätten i utbyte mot avtal om mat till Gaza. Ett avtal som visar sig vara muntligt och Israel redan brutit. Chockerande dåligt av Kallas och EU timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry…”
