Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza continues unabated despite ceasefire More than a month after a ceasefire was announced and all living Israeli hostages were released, Israeli authorities are still committing genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip, by c...

Amnesty's new report finds that Israeli authorities are still:

🔴 Severely restricting access to vital humanitarian aid and services
🔴 Expelling Palestinians from their homes and land
🔴 Imposing conditions "calculated to physically destroy Palestinians in Gaza"
🔴 Committing genocide

On Nov. 22, Israeli strikes killed more than 20 people and injured over 80 in #Gaza, according to the Ministry of Health. Since Oct. 11, over 339 Palestinians have been killed and more than 870 been injured.

Despite the ceasefire, we are still treating injured people in Gaza.

'Patchwork of dust and misery': At the Yellow Line dividing Gaza - where all that remains are skeletons of buildings Not so long ago, Shuja'iyya, in the north of Gaza, was a bustling town of around 100,000 people, proud of a history dating back 850 years. Now, it is a wasteland, a patchwork of dust and misery.

The brief visit was highly controlled and offered no access to Palestinians, or other areas of Gaza. Military censorship laws in Israel mean that military personnel were shown all our material before publication. Sky News maintained editorial control of this report at all times.

Sky's Adam Parsons sees the full-scale destruction of Gaza

Israel does not allow news organisations to report independently from Gaza. Today it took a group of journalists, including Sky News' Adam Parsons, into the area of the Strip occupied by Israeli forces.

Greens response to Gaza ceasefire agreement Greens response to Gaza ceasefire agreement - Statement: Scottish Greens response to Gaza ceasefire

If the agreement ends the immediate violence, and lets hostages and prisoners return to their families, we should all welcome it.

But it says nothing about the long term solution, or justice for Palestine. The occupation must end, and war criminals must face justice.

Thank you to Hannah Einbinder for using her acceptance at the #Emmys to speak out against Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

The pledge Hannah refers to in her interview has been signed by hundreds of artists who have said they will not work with Israeli film institutions ‘implicated in genocide.’

Boycott Eurovision of Israel takes part. Headline from Variety magazine: "Eurovision crisis looms as the Netherlands, Ireland, Spain, Iceland and Slovenia threaten boycott if Israel participates"

Boycott Eurovision of Israel takes part. Headline from Variety magazine: "Eurovision crisis looms as the Netherlands, Ireland, Spain, Iceland and Slovenia threaten boycott if Israel participates"

Cultural boycotts have been vital in telling oppressive regimes they will not be normalised.

Israel must not be allowed to use Eurovision as a platform to launder its reputation while committing atrocities.

The UK should join the growing boycott of Eurovision if Israel takes part.

The UK should join the growing boycott of Eurovision if Israel is allowed to take part.

Eurovision is a celebration of diversity, love and unity. But that's not possible if it’s being used to whitewash genocide.

Israel should be removed as Russia was after its invasion of Ukraine.

Committing war crimes anywhere is a criminal offence in the UK if the perpetrator returns here.

Sadly, a number of British nationals have fought in Israel's occupation forces. Evidence of them committing war crimes has been submitted to the Met.

They must be prosecuted.

Israel's president should be arrested when he arrives in the UK, not given the red carpet treatment.

His state is carrying out a genocide, and his statements, including that there are "no innocent civilians in Gaza", have been cited by the ICJ as evidence of Israel's intent.

UK Government rules Israel is not committing genocide in Palestine THE UK Government has ruled that Israel is not committing genocide in Gaza – contradicting a mounting body of international experts who say…

This UK government policy amounts to genocide denial.

Entire communities have been destroyed, families are being starved, and people are being murdered as they queue for aid.

What will it take for Keir Starmer to finally say 'enough is enough' and that Israel has gone too far?

BDS victory! The Scottish Parliament becomes the first in the world to endorse BDS against genocidal Israel.

BDS calls for escalated civil society pressure on all states to impose legal and targeted sanctions against apartheid Israel similar to those that helped abolish apartheid in South Africa.

This week Scottish Labour abstained on a motion to recognise Palestine and use boycotts divestment and sanctions against a state they admit is perpetrating genocide.

And now this. It's shameful.
