The alternative to a "PR stunt" is to allow international reporters into Gaza to report facts. Israel still won't allow this - it has been 2 years.

UPDATE โ€” Israel has intercepted another boat on the Global Sumud Flotilla. They continue to intercept and board ships on the flotilla in international waters, preventing international peace volunteers from delivering aid to starving Palestinians

Inside the everyday Facebook networks where far-right ideas grow The Guardian spent a year studying an online community trading in anti-immigration sentiment and misinformation. Experts say such spaces can play a role in radicalisation

@hernandesraph.bsky.social , @porcelinad.bsky.social and I spent the better part of a year watching and analysing how far right ideology is shared in open Facebook groups: here is what we found: www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int... with immense help from Pablo Gutiรฉrrez, Garry Blight, Lydia McMullan

"The Israeli government will not allow international reporters into Gaza to do their work and to document freely what they see. International journalists must now be allowed into Gaza to share the burden with Palestinian reporters there so we can all bring the facts to the world."

As a journalist who has faced trolling, doxxing, death threats in the past 23 months of reporting on Gaza, I welcome these comments from Laura Davison, NUJ general secretary who says โ€œefforts to silence, bully and intimidate journalists will always be condemned by the union.โ€

What struck the Gaza Aid Flotilla? After we published the story, the Tunisian Ministry of Interior issued a statement describing the incident โ€œthat took place yesterdayโ€ as a โ€œpremeditated attackโ€ stating that an investigation had been launched.โ€

I spoke to the Reuters Institute about my last investigation into Israeli fire on Palestinian food seekers: โ€œIsrael has continued to block access to foreign journalists, which means that I have had to rely on visual evidence uploaded by civilians or Israeli soldiers."

Yesterday, Musk's AI slipped up and told us the truth- that Twitter has systematically suppressed pro Palestine content, due to leadership decisions, implicating Musk himself.

Israeli airstrikes just hit the Syrian Ministry of Defence. That's the 4th capital of a neighbouring country it's bombed in 2 years: Iran, Syria, Yemen and Lebanon. This is on top of the decimation of Gaza.

Extraordinary. Police say "Free Gaza" is acceptable but "Israel is committing genocide" can get you arrested as it shows support for a proscribed terrorist group- Palestine Action.

"My inescapable conclusion has become that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinian people. Having grown up in a Zionist home, lived in Israel, served in the IDF and spent my career writing on the Holocaust, this was a painful conclusion to reach."

Israelโ€™s Deadly Assault on Iran Prison Incites Fury, Even Among Dissidents

Israel says its attack on Iran's Evin prison was "symbolic." That makes it a war crime because it was a civilian facility filled with political prisoners, at least 79 of whom Israel killed while injuring dozens.
