Mohamed Salah calls out UEFA for not mentioning Israeli forces killed Al-Obeid as he waited for aid at Gaza distribution center. The "Palestinian Pele" leaves behind a wife & five kids.

His death means Israel has now killed 321 footballers in Gaza (players, coaches, admin, refs etc)

Reports: Netanyahu orders Israeli army to conquer all of Gaza Israeli media is reporting that Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered the Israeli army to expand its offensive in Gaza and reoccupy the entire Strip.

The Israeli government has ordered the Israeli military to β€œconquer the Gaza Strip.”

Time and time again, Israeli officials have made their ultimate goal in Gaza clear: kill as many Palestinians as possible in order to steal their land.

Gaza: Family of frail boy killed at GHF site months ago still haven't received his body Family of 10-year-old Abdulrahim 'Amir' al-Jarabe'a say they were only alerted to his killing after seeing testimony from US whistleblower Anthony Aguilar

An American whistleblower from the US-Israeli backed GHF announced that he witnessed the Israeli military kill 10-year-old Abdulrahim al-Jarabe’a as he tried to get food aid.

Israel is killing starving Palestinian children.

Last week I canceled our subscription to the @nytimes.com because of this vile push notification. As the descendant of Armenian genocide survivors, I know a genocide when I see one.

Death toll in Israel’s war on Gaza surpasses 60,000 At least 83 Palestinians, including 33 aid seekers, have been killed since dawn.

Israel has killed at least 60,034 Palestinians in Gaza since October 2023. That is more than 90 people a day.

From manufactured famine to dropping 2,000-lb bombs on civilians, Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza.

I’m cycling between impotent rage and debilitating grief. One of my young mentees in Gaza told me yesterday that her family, including her 5 year old sister, has had no food in four days. This is absolutely criminal, depraved, and monstrous.

My friends in Gaza are fainting in the street from hunger. They are being starved. It beggars belief that the world is allowing this depraved criminality to continue.

BREAKING: "A senior ICE official testified that the agency assembled a team in early 2025 to investigate student protestors. The team β€” referred to internally as the β€œTiger Team” β€” rapidly compiled over 100 reports based on a list of 5,000 people identified on the Canary Mission website."

Imagine being part of a floundering political establishment at historic lows in favorability, seeing this guy's absolutely infectuous energy, and deciding to try to stop it through an array of embarrassing media appearances and editorial blunders.

Your government is stripping health insurance from poor people to redistribute billions of dollars to ICE and local law enforcement agencies so they can arrest and cage your neighbors.
