Yemenis have a good chance of being granted asylum in EUrope, but no chance of securing a visa to enter and make a claim.
I wrote a short piece on violence at the PL-BL border, and how against all odds people seize their right to mobility and refuge.

The average number of people in Gaza killed per day since October 7th is 135 - 138 if you include those killed killed in the West Bank. It's 664 per day if you include predicted 'indirect' casualties! No matter how you cut it, it's a daily massacre. We must condemn every day
Its Saturday for most people today. In Khan Younis, it is another massacre with advanced weapons targeting a people trapped in the hold of the most vile racist-colonial violence we can barely name from other nodes of empire.

Evidence of what Israel is doing is everywhere, in painful detail. No one can say they didn’t know, and as history has shown us time and again, mass killing requires people who are silent, who look away, and who think it has nothing to do with them.

Open letter by Gaza academics and university administrators to the world:
"We call on our supporters to help us resist the Israeli campaign of scholasticide and rebuild our universities."

When a state is burning people alive in their tents after it has displaced them and demolished their homes and killed their relatives, there is a moral obligation to abolish that state, to sanction its supporters and benefactors, to burn its flag wherever—wherever—it may appear.

Heartbroken beyond words. Now, Israel has killed Refaat Al-Areer's eldest daughter, Al-Shaimaa, her husband, and newborn. No words can convey this endless loss and pain. For days now I stood on stages saying "they are killing our poets, but they can't kill their words"
Israel has assassinated Ismail Haniyeh's children and grandchildren not to pressure Hamas to negotiate a ceasefire, but to make a ceasefire – which it does not want, because it would render the genocide incomplete – less likely.
Ghassan Kanafani—the Palestinian resistance writer and revolutionary politician who produced some of the Arab world’s most celebrated works of fiction before he was assassinated in 1972—was born on this day in 1936.
Here is a brief remembrance:

Al Shifa Hospital constituted 30% of the capacity of the health system in the Gaza Strip. The Israelis have blown up or torched all its buildings to ensure that it is irreprable and needs to be rebuilt from scratch. The aim was and remains making Gaza uninhabitable. Genocide

How many massacres of starving Palestinians are necessary for an outcry? How many strewn bodies of Palestinians denied access to water, hygiene, & food before a single head of state describes Israel’s killing campaign as “barbaric”?

Zionists are scared of Jonathan Glazer.
He refuted their hijacking of Jewishness and the Holocaust to justify their occupation.
He also pointed to how we can resist: the girl in the film who resisted by hiding food for prisoners.
Solidarity—the opposite of blocking aid.

We are one day away from Ramadan and people in Gaza have been fasting for months.
Is it possible for people who do not have food to break their fast on to fast at all?
There is no Ramadan this year in Gaza. There is no life at all.
Shame on this world.
