Israeli military says first stages of assault on Gaza City have begun
Call-up letters have gone out to 60,000 reservists to bolster an operation which is expected to last until next year.
Concentrating over a million Palestinians in camps as the Israeli invade,is mass murder. Compelling so many into close confines without enough food, water, vaccines & medical aid will expose many to disease & starvation.That's murder. #NetanyahuWarCriminal

Bottom line: The best predictor of future behaviour is past behaviour, so suggesting that the UK is complicit in the deaths of those journalists is a reasonable hypothesis to consider. The burden of proof is on you @Keir_Starmer.

The MoD says these targeting flights are for hostage-search & legally overseen. The UK mapping out faces, locations and crowd movements almost every time Israel then goes on to drop bombs on those locations is not hostage searching.

Anas al-Sharif & journalist colleagues were killed in an air strike outside al-Shifa hospital on 10β11 Aug 2025.The UKβs sub-contractors learned to switch off their transponder by then, but should we assume the UK provided Intel that helped kill those Al Jazeera journalists?

Further proof that privatisation does not work well in most sectors, the UK contractors accidentally left their transponder on, on the 3, 4, and 6 Aug, i.e. more UK targeting activity in early August. Did the flights stop or just the mistake of leaving the transponder on?

On 28 July 2025 the UKβs 'Beechcraft King Air' left its transponder ON and was publicly tracked circling Khan Younis for hours.
Hours later, heavy Israeli strikes hit Khan Younis; investigative reporting notes the strikes occurred in the area the UK plane had been circling.

π¬π§ UK Complicity in Gaza Genocide
Since 3/12/23, RAF aircraft have flown 500+ surveillance sorties over Gazaβspying on roads, buildings, and convoys. Many coincided with Israeli airstrikes the next day, including 24 flights in the two weeks before the 8/6/24 Nuseirat camp bombing that killed 274.

Last chance to show support & say thanks to the members of #PalestineAction. Ridiculous & dangerous that this very message after midnight could result in years in prison. Keir Starmer you are the facilitator of terrorism with your greed & ambition. You're so bad, you make the Tories look good.

And right now, the UK is choosing Shell over disabled kids, the already rich over the safety net that protects us all.
