Due to a lack of fuel in #Gaza, people are resorting to dangerous methods that cause serious public health risks and environmental damage.
We're doing our best to deliver critical supplies, but our work is being systematically obstructed.
Gaza är ett pyttelitet område, ett stenkast från egyptiska och israeliska gränsen, lätt tillgängligt från Medelhavet. Mateveranser hindras inte av krigets faror utan av murar och taggtråd. Självklart är svälten 100% skapad av Israel i syfte att utplåna befolkningen.

But don't think the political economy of full employment extends to 'destroy everything for no reason'
one thing that keeps happening is Trump taking major steps which impose large, often asymmetric costs on American business, and American business doing fucking nothing in response

Tomorrow at 13:00 the concluding hearing is expected for journalist Mzia Amaglobeli at Batumi City Court. She is facing up to seven years.
This is a sketch I did of a couple of weeks ago of Mzia after media got banned from video and photo reporting of trials.
