Journalists in Portland: Try to get photos of gas canisters/munitions, either spent on ground or still carried by DHS. ONLY IF SAFE. Use long lens. Risks unknown, don’t approach.

This green smoke isn’t super common. Raised concerns in 2020. Documenting DHS munitions may help accountability later.

Israeli forces attacked Doctors Without Borders workers—who were all wearing marked medical vests.

They killed Omar, a 42-year-old occupational therapist and sole provider for his family.

He was killed at a bus stop, on his way to take care of other people bombed by Israel.

@cjjpmedia.bsky.social held a news conference today excoriating the Canadian government and media outlets for their complicity in genocide.

That there is virtually no coverage of this news conference is damning.

So proud of my colleagues who fight for Palestinian journalists every day. To date, Israel has over 200 journalists in Gaza.

"We carry your stories forward. You were not invisible. You were not voiceless.

You were journalists – brave, brilliant and irreplaceable" – @smohyeddin.bsky.social

I'll be speaking in Ottawa (virtually) alongside my colleagues tomorrow morning.

Details for journalists on how to tune in are below.

For everyone else, stay tuned for videos and potentially a livestream on Instagram @cjjpmedia

Full statement from @GAC_Corporate 👇🏾

Last week, Canada issued a statement "reaffirming its commitment to the safety of journalists" in Gaza. But it did not specify how it plans to hold Israel accountable, only calling on the government to take action.

@cjjpmedia.bsky.social is going to Ottawa with some ideas.

Fifa banned Russia from international football. Now it must do the same for Israel As Israel inflicts untold misery on Palestinians, it is time for football’s governing bodies to stand by the principles they claim to uphold

Was honoured to be asked by @karimzidan.com to write the latest edition of @sportspolitika.news! It focuses on my reporting on why Canada's Davis Cup tournament was played behind closed doors. And how it fits into the growing movement to ban Israel from sports.

State of Play Podcast - Bonus Episode 4: Davis Cup Double Fault An empty tennis arena, fans protest around the world, and athlete campaigns — Can sports hold Israel accountable for genocide?

NEW! In the latest State of Play episode, hear from El Jones, @nkalamb.bsky.social, and Charlotte Phillips as they discuss the events leading to Tennis Canada’s decision to close the Davis Cup matches to fans.

From cycling to soccer to tennis, fans, athletes and scholars have been pushing to suspend Israel from global sporting events.

Listen to the latest episode from me for the @globalreportingcentre.org on this growing movement in sports and why it's become an arena for resistance against genocide 👇

A global movement is growing to ban Israel from sports – from cycling to soccer to tennis.

In my first episode as host, I explore how sports have become a flashpoint for protest, looking at past sporting boycotts — and if they can be effective today.

NEW: Canada won’t respond to the UN finding of genocide in Gaza — only to the ICJ.

@globalaffairs.canada.ca: The question of genocide is before the International Court of Justice. We are following developments closely

Today, over 250 media outlets are going dark by blacking out their website and/or social media to demand that Palestinian journalists be protected and that international media be allowed immediate and unrestricted access to Gaza.

The Global Reporting Centre joins @RSF_inter and 150 fellow media outlets in calling for Israel to #ProtectJournalistsInGaza and #LetReportersIntoGaza.

UPDATE, 24+ hours since the Trump-Vance admin bombed Iran:
— 52 House members signed onto the Massie-Khanna War Powers Resolution
— 3 Senators supporting Kaine's War Powers Resolution
— 8 Senators signed onto Bernie's No War Against Iran Act

60 total. 59 Democrats. 1 Republican.

Update for June 21, 2025 - Israeli forces kill 11 Palestinians, including 3 children, and wound 312 people as they lined up near GHF distribution sites. Omar al-Hobi, an aid-seeker told
@aljazeera.com that walking to these sites means you “enter the point of death”
www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/...

Not a single one mentions that Iran currently does not have a nuclear weapon and that it was attacked by Israel during disarmament negotiations with the US. Or that that IAEA chief himself has repeatedly said “that nuclear facilities should never be attacked.”

It’s pretty amazing to see the four statements from Australia, Canada, United Kingdom, and EU on US strikes on Iran side-by-side. The wording is pretty much verbatim, esp the first two paragraphs. They all have the same script.

To date, Israeli troops have killed 435 Palestinians & injured over 3,000 as they lined up for aid at GHF distribution sites. Yet, a new report by @premthakker.bsky.social reveals that senior U.S. officials are pressuring USAID to approve funding for GHF

zeteo.com/p/scoop-usai...

Dozens of aid seekers among 82 people killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza Palestinians seeking aid continue to be killed near distribution sites operated by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation.

June 19, 2025 - 31 Palestinians are killed by Israeli forces near GHF sites. This is also the first time that IDF confirmed to AFP that airstrikes were used saying “an aircraft struck and eliminated the suspects in order to remove the threat."

www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/6/...

The BBC now has a timeline of Palestinians killed by Israeli fire while seeking aid that they added to this story.

But when I add up their numbers, the total number of Palestinians massacred near GHF sites comes up to 239. The actual number is 409.

www.bbc.com/news/article...

Gaza: Eleven killed by Israeli fire while seeking aid, rescuers say Israel's military says troops in central Gaza fired warning shots at a group posing a potential threat, but that it was unaware of injuries.

June 18, 2025 - 12 Palestinians are killed and 172 injured while seeking aid when Israeli forces opened fire at thousands of people queuing up near a GHF distribution centre. GHF refused to comment and said that they have distributed food "without incident"

Update on June 17, 2025 - Latest numbers from Gaza Health Ministry revises the number of Palestinians killed to 59 and injured to 200. It still remains the deadliest day on record so far, bringing the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli fire while waiting for food to 397.

With anti-ICE protests already ramping in the US, it would be interesting to see where this goes considering more than half of Americans, including Republicans, do not support a war with Iran.

Despite the overwhelming support among Americans for invading Iraq, it also led to some of the largest anti-war demonstrations in the country. In Seattle, 50,000 protested under the dual slogan, "Stop the war on Iraq; Stop the war on immigrants"

Trump approval falls, Israel-Iran conflict, anti-ICE protests, and vaccines: June 13-16, 2025 Economist/YouGov Poll | YouGov This week’s Economist/YouGov poll covers Trump approval numbers, the Israel-Iran conflict, anti-ICE protests, and opinion of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and his actions

A new poll by Economist/YouGov found that 60% of Americans do not think that the US should go to war with Iran. Only 16% support US involvement.

In 2003, 71% of Americans supported the invasion of Iraq.
