Israël probeert de publieke opinie en politieke besluitvorming in Nederland naar zijn hand te zetten, bijvoorbeeld via het verspreiden van desinformatie. Dat staat in een nieuw rapport van de NCTV. rightsforum.org/israel-vormt-e…
Verslag van een journalist die de levensgevaarlijke tocht naar een van de GHF-distributiepunten onderneemt. "I faced Israeli military fire, private U.S. contractors pointing laser beams at my forehead, crowds with knives fighting for rations, and masked thieves — to get food"
"At 2 a.m. the gunfire stopped. We took it as a sign that the [GHF] site had opened. I ran with the crowds toward the food distribution site, stepping over bodies." npr.org/2025/07/06/g-s…
“The level of repression that we’re seeing is related to the shift in the narrative, and the loss of control over that narrative.” theguardian.com/education/2025…
Israel's ambassador to the UN tells the UN Security Council that Israel is taking the following steps against the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA). Hundreds of OCAH employees undergoing Israeli 'security vetting.' Key OCHA employees will no…
De genocide in gaza is live te volgen en de internationale gemeenschap kijkt weg. Het leed in Gaza is ondraaglijk. Mijn collega @KatiPiri heeft daarom een spoeddebat aangevraagd. Nederland moet het voortouw nemen en de Europese Raad bij elkaar roepen. Tijd voor sancties. Nu.
De hongersnood in Gaza heeft catastrofale proporties bereikt. Morgen om 18:00 uur wordt op verschillende Nederlandse treinstations gedemonstreerd tegen de genocide. Neem potten en pannen mee om lawaai te maken! rightsforum.org/de-catastrofal…
Samen met @jpaternotte spoeddebat aangevraagd met minister Veldkamp over Gaza. EU ministers besloten vorige week om geen enkele sanctie in te stellen tegen Israël. Nederland moet de Europese Raad bijeen roepen en intussen alvast nationale maatregelen instellen.
Wat ben je zielloos en diep verrot van binnen als dit je take is terwijl er een genocide en uithongeringscampagne gaande is. @mirjambikker
Ik zal voor altijd aan @DonCeder, @gertjansegers en de @christenunie denken als ik later terugdenk aan de genocide van Gaza. Zij hebben het voorwerk gedaan om dit mogelijk te maken.
A Palestinian civilian was shot and killed by Israeli warships while filming his friend in front of the displaced families’ tents at Gaza’s port.
🚨BREAKING: Israel killed a young Palestinian man for filming social media videos by the sea.

The Latin ✝️ Monastery Church in Gaza Old City, obliterated by Israel's Genocidal "@idf" this morning, as the intensifying and indiscriminate bombing continues amidst the Extermination Campaign being implemented by the demented army.

My family is from Manshiyyeh. This is our neighborhood in 1948, where my dad was born. The mosque with the distinctive minaret is Hassan Bek mosque. Somewhere in this rubble was our home. This isn't Gaza in 2025. This is Jaffa in 1948.
The Manshiya quarter of Jaffa was destroyed in a series of bombardments led by the Irgun during the 1948 Nakba in order to drive out its Palestinians inhabitants
On what is happening in Brussels 🇪🇺: 1/ "Historic" would be a meeting leading to the end of the genocide, the dismantling of Israel’s forever-occupation and apartheid, and the beginning of justice and accountability— in line with int'l law, and as per ICJ and ICC proceedings.…
Today’s EU–Southern Neighbourhood meeting feels historic. Israel and Palestine are around the table. And for the first time in 11 years, Syria is there too. My doorstep ↓
.@EUobs scandalous story on EU antisemitism envoy @kschnurbein now accessible without paywall, incl. leaked notes from her closed-door EU briefing. Here are some of the craziest points – from an EU official supposed to promote fundamental values:🧵 euobserver.com/eu-and-the-wor…
While the EU has narrowed its focus to Gaza humanitarian aid, Israel breaches its long-held red line in the West Bank just before EU foreign ministers meet tomorrow
For the first time since 2021, Israel is resuming plans to build in E1 — a move that could bisect the West Bank and block a future Palestinian state. Peace Now: “The government is using the Gaza war to impose facts on the ground.” Article in Hebrew: tinyurl.com/5m8sh6rw
By sanctioning a UN Special Rapporteur, the US may be in violation of the 1946 Convention on Privileges and Immunities of the UN. As an expert on UN mission, SR Albanese is entitled to immunity from legal process of any kind. Which UN member will take the US to the ICJ over this?
What is shameful and illegitimate is this move by the US to retaliate against @FranceskAlbs for her principled, courageous and effective work as UN Special Rapporteur. This is part of the broader pattern of Trumpian frontal assault on international accountability institutions.
"This collapse began with the liberal world’s lack of resolve to rein in Israel’s war in Gaza. It escalated when no one lifted a finger to stop hospitals being bombed. It expanded when mass starvation became a weapon of war. And it is peaking at a time when total war is no longer…
