In Defense of Boycotting Israeli Universities Not only do Israel’s universities help to develop weapons used against Palestinians, they also legitimize the actions of a nation that has become an international pariah. They deserve to be boycotted.

‘Only Hamas can defend us’: Israeli raids and Fatah failures boost support in West Bank Settler attacks and arrests of Hamas supporters create climate of fear and distrust in ruling Fatah party

“The PA show up here with guns – why don’t they use them when the settlers attack? They only come to collect taxes…They take everything, promise us protection and provide nothing…if you try to protect yourself, you’ll be arrested by the PA before the Israelis.”

As Rafah Offensive Grinds On, Hunger in Gaza Spirals Aid officials and health experts expect famine this month unless Israel lifts barriers to aid, the fighting stops and vital services are restored.

Aid officials and health experts have for months warned that famine will come for Gaza unless Israel lifts barriers keeping most aid out, the fighting stops and vital services such as clean water are restored. None of those conditions have been met.

There Might Be No Day After in Gaza As the war continues, deterioration at the level of governance, security, and public order will likely be deepened by the absence of a political horizon, diplomatic process, or future prospects.

BREAKING: ISRAELI SETTLERS BURN OLIVE TREES WEST OF NABLUS IN THE WEST BANK
Hamas are hiding in olive trees in the West Bank right?

The apartheid regime attacked Gazan fishing boats after seeing Palestinians using them to catch fish for food.

Two days ago in Nablus IOF-backed settlers burned olive trees (they murdered Bilal Saleh while he was picking olives).

Remember a few weeks ago when everyone called people antisemitic for saying Israel bombed a hospital and then yesterday they bombed three and an ambulance convoy and took credit for it

Government prepared secret dossier on academic’s posts on BLM, 'militant leftism', Israel war 'Highly disturbing' revelations raise serious questions about free speech, says University and College Union

This could be me or any of my X or Bluesky or Facebook academic pals. The person they collected a dossier on was antiracist, pro union strikes, pro "scholarships for Black students" (i mean WTAF?), pro trans rights, critical of No. 10 etc

The prohibition on attacking ambulances under the first Geneva Convention is extraordinarily straightforward—even ambulances that are being used by belligerents on the battlefield. ihl-databases.icrc.org/en/ihl-treat...
