For peace, we’d need an end to Israel’s system of oppression and Jewish supremacy across the land, and a long-term solution based on liberation and justice for Palestinians and security for all residents of this land.
We’d love for that to happen - but it is NOT this deal.
2/2

Journalists, if you’re reporting developments around Gaza, please don’t call it a “peace deal” or suggest it will bring about peace.
This is a deal to end the genocide and the war in Gaza, to free hostages and prisoners, and to start rebuilding Gaza.

IDF database suggests 83% of Gaza dead were civilians Classified intelligence reveals Israel killed 8,900 militants by May, indicating an almost unparalleled proportion of civilian slaughter.

Breaking: internal Israeli intelligence documents indicate more than 4 in 5 Palestinians killed in Gaza are civilians.

Hundreds of Israelis holding pictures of children killed in Gaza, in a vigil against the genocide in Tel Aviv. 18,592 children. Plus 98 who died of starvation. On top of 62 killed by Hamas.
Stop the genocide. Refuse conscription. Put all possible international pressure on Israel

Microsoft storing Israeli intelligence trove used to attack Palestinians Microsoft developed a customized version of its cloud platform for Israel’s Unit 8200, which is housing audio files of millions of calls by Palestinians.

Microsoft is storing millions of hours of recorded phone calls of Palestinians on servers in the Netherlands and Ireland. These recordings serve Israel in attacks on Gaza as part of its genocide.

The bloc is a small part of the larger demonstration, several thousand people strong, calling to end the war and bring back the hostages. While the more mainstream protest is more nationalistic and militaristic, there too they are talking against the forced starvation

Several hundred demonstrators now in Tel Aviv at the anti genocide bloc, chanting against the staving out and the ongoing massacre of Palestinians in Gaza

Some of us here in Israel are fighting against the war criminals running this country, and those participating in them. But we need help. We need people around the world to join the call for BDS and for governments to stop this genocide

‘Double tap’ airstrikes: How Israel targets Gaza rescue efforts In the aftermath of bombings, the Israeli army routinely fires on Palestinian rescue workers to prevent them from saving the wounded.

Now, a new @972mag.com and Local Call investigation by Yuval Abraham, based on testimonies of Palestinians and Israeli soldiers, shows exactly how targeting rescue workers is official military policy

Gaza's rescue workers are haunted by those they couldn't save Civil defense teams are working around the clock with minimal resources to help Palestinians trapped under the rubble. Too often, it’s a losing battle.

Time and again Palestinians face distrust as they report Israel's war crimes, only to be vindicated when Israeli soldiers confess to the same crimes.
Back in December 23', we reported on the "double tap" attacks, illegal targeting of aid workers in Gaza

Israel enforcing Gaza evacuations with grenade-firing drones Israeli soldiers tell +972 they deliberately target Palestinian civilians with drone strikes so others will ‘learn’ not to return.

“One time, I saw people picking up clothes", says the soldier. "They were walking [...] to collect clothes from the rubble of a house. You could see that’s what they were doing — and they were shot.”
Read the story here. Stop the genocide.

“In most cases, there was nothing you could tell yourself. There was no way to complete the sentence, ‘We killed them because…’”
That is one testimony from one soldier speaking to @972mag.com and Local Call about Chinese drones used by Israel to kill innocent civilians from miles away
1/2

This has been happening multiple times, with zero accountability, and it is but one aspect of this genocidal campaign. We all must join the protests, the disruption, boycotts, divestments, sanctions, flotillas, measures in the Hauge. Whatever it takes to stop Israel's crimes
2/2

Every horror in the genocide in Gaza is revealed as just a prelude to an even more horrific one - the latest one being the repeated massacres of hundreds of starving Palestinians who walk for miles, risking their lives for the chance to get their families some food.

‘Render it unusable’: Israel’s mission of total urban destruction Bulldozers and explosives are flattening Gaza from the ground — what soldiers say is a systematic campaign to make the Strip unlivable.

We've known this for a long time, and now it's coming from Israeli soldiers testifying about the main goal of demolitions in Gaza: preventing the possibility of Palestinian life.

They also show zero solidarity with our colleagues in Gaza, at least 168 of whom have been killed by the Israeli army. Those journalists, facing bombardments, hunger and homelessness, are the true victims of Israel's attack on the press, and the true heroes of our time. 3/3

Yet alongside ongoing attacks on the free media inside of Israel by the government, the fact remains that the worst censorship in Israel is self-censorship. Powerful Jewish journalists, who face no real threat, continue to choose to betray their profession by lying about Gaza 2/3

Israel sees unprecedented spike in media censorship In 2024, Israel's military censor banned 1,635 articles and partially redacted another 6,265 — part of a wider assault on freedom of press.

🧵On this Freedom of the Press Day, we reveal that in 2024, the Israeli military censor intervened on average in 21 stories a day (!!), banning publication of 1,635 entire stories throughout the year. 1/3

משפחה אחת. תקיפה אחת. 132 שמות. תחקיר מעזה. יותר מ-51,000 פלסטינים נהרגו במלחמה בעזה, לפי משרד הבריאות בעזה. שיחזרנו את מהלך האירועים באחת התקיפות הקטלניות ביותר של צה״ל.

סיפור הרצח של 132 בני משפחה מורחבת אחת, בהפצצה אחת. חצי שנה מאז ההפצצה, ועד היום הצבא לא נותן תשובות על הטבח הזה. די למלחמה! הפסקת אש ועסקה עכשיו - הסכם שלום ארוך טווח מיד אחר כך

The attack on Oscar winner Ballal Hamdan is getting global attention, even a comment from the WH, because of that little golden statue.
But settler violence, backed by the Israeli army, is the day-to-day reality in Masafer Yatta. This is what "No Other Land" is all about

Yuval Abraham about an attack on an Oscar winner:
A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since.

This is Ella Keidar Greenberg. Today she was sentenced to 30 days in prison for refusing to join the Israeli army. It is likely but the first of several terms she will be serving for her resistance to be part of a genocide, in her words.
Strength and solidarity to you, Ella ✊

Tel Aviv: 100 demonstrators chanting “stop the genocide”, “soldiers - refuse!”, “Bibi - we’ll see you in The Hague”, and “you don’t win over the bodies of children”.
Parallel protests are taking place in the city, focusing on the call to free hostages and stop the war
