Let UNRWA Aid Trucks Into Gaza The region’s most experienced aid agency could feed all of Gaza’s population for three months—if Israel would just let them do their job.

“Starvation and humanitarian aid have been weaponized by the Israel-US-backed GHF, while Israel ices out UNRWA, the humanitarian aid agency with the single longest successful food operation on the planet,” @unrwausa.bsky.social Mara Kronenfeld tells @thenation.com

Treating Gaza’s Collective Trauma In Gaza, where displaced children play a game called “air strike” and act out death, the lack of mental-health resources has become another emergency.

“In Gaza More than sixty thousand people have been killed…. The hidden toll, however, spans entire flattened neighborhoods and erased communities. Those who remain face widespread famine, collapsing access to health care, and the daily terrors of survival.”

By arresting him, the junta is de facto making him the natural candidate to replace the military should they fall. The military know this, which is why Mara is in serious danger

He managed to make his critical voice heard while still being in Bamako (most vocal Malian opponents are now in exile). He used a mild but distinct enough tone to place him at the forefront of the opposition. The junta is putting an end to this. The military have gone full dictators

The Bamako political scene has become so secretive, full or rumours and speculation that it's hard to assess the impact of Mara's arrest. But Mara is a heavyweight of Malian politics whose initial political capital was built through attention to the youths and conservative morals

Opinion | The Death of Gaza in Slow Motion

This is not a genocide that can still be prevented. That threshold has already been crossed. What remains is a long trajectory of harm — one that will unfold long after Israeli military attacks are over and even if humanitarian and medical aid begins to flow freely.

Les Etats-Unis se réengagent auprès des juntes du Sahel Alors que le Mali, le Burkina Faso et le Niger se sont rapprochés de la Russie au détriment de leurs partenaires occidentaux, deux hauts responsables américains se sont récemment rendus dans la région pour évoquer notamment la lutte antiterroriste.

« Nous avons des équipements adéquats, des connaissances et des forces pour faire face à la menace terroriste. Si le Mali décide de travailler avec nous, on saura comment faire », a promis l’émissaire du président américain, Donald Trump | I forgot that the US record in the WoT was so great
