Good statement that makes clear Israel is deliberately massacring starving civilians.
"We condemn the drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians, including children, seeking to meet their most basic needs of water and food. "
www.gov.uk/government/n...
Without immediate intervention, the last reporters in Gaza will die - AFP, July 21, 2025 AFP has been working with one freelance writer, three photographers, and six freelance videographers in the Gaza Strip since the departure of its staff journalists in 2024. Along with a few others, they are now the only ones reporting what is happening in the Gaza Strip. The international press has been banned from entering the territory for nearly two years. We refuse to see them die. One of them, Bashar, has worked for AFP since 2010, first as a fixer, then as a freelance photographer, and since 2024 as the main photographer. On Saturday, July 19, he managed to post a message on Facebook: "I no longer have the strength to work for the media. My body is thin and I can no longer work."
Bashar, 30, works and lives in conditions equal to those of all Gazans, moving from one refugee camp to another as Israeli bombardments dictate. For over a year, he has lived in absolute destitution and works at enormous risk to his life. Hygiene is a major problem for him, with periods of severe intestinal illness. Bashar has been living in the ruins of his Gaza City home since February with his mother, his four siblings, and the family of one of his brothers. Their house is devoid of any amenities or comforts, except for a few cushions. On Sunday morning, he reported that his older brother had "fallen from hunger." Even though these journalists receive a monthly salary from AFP, there is nothing to buy, or only at exorbitant prices. The banking system has disappeared, and those who exchange money between online bank accounts and cash charge a commission of nearly 40%.
AFP no longer has the means to have a vehicle, let alone the fuel to allow its journalists to travel for their reports. Traveling by car is tantamount to running the risk of being a target for the Israeli air force. AFP reporters therefore travel on foot or by donkey cart. Ahlam, for her part, survives in the south of the enclave. And she is determined to "bear witness" for as long as possible. "Every time I leave the tent to cover an event, conduct an interview, or document a story, I don't know if I'll come back alive." The biggest problem, she confirms, is the lack of food and water. We see their situation worsening. They are young, and their strength is failing them. Most no longer have the physical ability to travel the enclave to do their job. Their heartbreaking pleas for help are now daily.
Over the past few days, we have understood from their brief messages that their lives no longer depend on much and that their courage, devoted for many months to informing the whole world, will not help them survive. We risk learning of their deaths at any moment, and it's unbearable. This Sunday, Bashar wrote: "For the first time, I feel defeated." Later that day, he told one of us that he thanked him "for explaining what we live daily between death and hunger." "I wish Mr. Macron could help me get out of this hell." Ahlam is still standing. "I try to continue practicing my profession, to carry the voice of the people, to document the truth in the face of all attempts to silence it. Here, resistance is not a choice: it's a necessity." Since AFP was founded in August 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, we have had wounded and prisoners in our ranks, but none of us remembers seeing a colleagues die of starvation.
“Since AFP was founded in August 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, we have had wounded and prisoners in our ranks, but none of us remembers seeing our colleagues die of starvation.”
The AFP news release has been released in French. Below is an English translation via Google translate.

Ce constat illustre bien comment certains responsables politiques instrumentalisent un sentiment inexistant pour justifier des politiques migratoires toujours plus restrictives – au risque de nuire à l’économie et à la société française. (4/4)

📊 Cette tendance se vérifie même au sein des groupes traditionnellement les plus réticents à l'immigration : les personnes âgées (65+) et celles ayant un faible niveau d’éducation (moins que le bac). (3/4)

Dans cette tribune pour @theconversation.com, B. Michaillat démontre que l'idée d'un sentiment de "submersion migratoire" en France ne repose sur aucune réalité factuelle.
Contrairement aux idées reçues, les Européens sont de plus en plus pro-immigration (1/4)

06.01.2025 10:30 — 👍 5 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Here’s what happened to residents already living in Denmark’s “Ghettos”:
👉 Their income decreased.
👉 Driven largely by Danes who moved away shortly after the policy.
👉 This suggests native flight coming at a financial cost.
Unintended consequences of place-based policies can be costly. (3/4)
Did Denmark’s 2010 “Ghetto” policy achieve its goals?
Short answer: No.
Instead of improving conditions, the targeted areas saw their socio-demographic makeup worsen.
Why? Relatively better-off Danes avoided moving into these neighborhoods after they were publicly labeled as Ghettos. (2/4)
🚨 New WP Alert! 🚨
In 2010, Denmark launched a controversial policy labeling certain public housing areas as “Ghettos” based on high immigrant populations, crime, and unemployment.
The goal? To change the socio-demographic makeup of these neighborhoods.
Did it work? 🤔 (1/4)
