These women are wearing thobes and crosses 🇵🇸✝️

Not as a costume. Not as a statement. Simply as who they are.

Palestinian Christian women from the land where Jesus was born, walked, preached, was crucified, and rose again. Descendants of the first Christians. Custodians of the oldest continuous Christian community on earth.

Still here. Still praying. Still embroidering their history into their dresses, stitch by stitch, generation by generation.

Every pattern tells a story. Every cross tells a story. Every thobe tells a story.

The world keeps asking whether Christians belong in the Holy Land.

They never left.

The Jewish activist Tony Greenstein, whose opposition to the Gaza genocide will see him on trial in August for "supporting terrorism", is now being hounded – like other prominent Palestine solidarity activists – with a freeze on his bank accounts.

This is being directed by the government through the National Crime Agency.

Santander are the latest culprits to engage in what Greenstein calls "financial terrorism", after similar bank freezes from Nationwide, HSBC and First Direct.

One of the accounts frozen by Santander held money raised to help a Palestinian children's centre in Jenin.

As Greenstien notes, Jenin's children "suffer enough at the hands of the terrorist IDF without facing the terrorism of the British state acting via its banking system".

⭕️ New at Drop Site: How Secret Pro-Israel Money Flooded the Labour Party and Ended with a Ban of Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur

A years-long investigation by journalist Paul Holden traces how a little-known organization called Labour Together evolved into the political machine that helped engineer Keir Starmer’s rise to power, dismantle Jeremy Corbyn’s left-wing movement, and ultimately reshape the British state.

Drawing on leaked internal documents, whistleblower material, Freedom of Information requests, and records obtained under UK data laws, the investigation reveals that Labour Together received more than £800,000 from wealthy donors between 2017 and 2020, including over £406,000 from prominent Israel lobbyist Sir Trevor Chinn, while failing to declare more than £600,000 in donations before later being fined by the Electoral Commission.

The report details how Labour Together’s longtime managing director, Morgan McSweeney, developed a strategy to remove Corbyn, install a successor, and systematically purge the Labour left while publicly presenting the project as one of party unity. McSweeney would later become Starmer’s chief of staff and one of the most influential figures in government.

Holden also documents Labour Together’s role in amplifying Labour’s “antisemitism” crisis, helping build campaigns against independent media outlets and journalists critical of Israel, and later hiring the global lobbying firm APCO Worldwide to investigate Holden and other reporters examining the organization.

The investigation further traces the links between Labour Together, senior members of Starmer’s government, pro-Israel organizations that campaigned to exclude Hasan Piker and Cenk Uygur, and the Home Secretary who ultimately imposed the bans. Rather than an isolated immigration decision, the report argues, the exclusions were the culmination of a political project years in the making.

To all the media outlets and twitter bros suddenly reporting on Lebanon, realize that Israel has been killing men, women and children since October 2023. They have been killing journalists, medical professionals, Lebanese army members, municipality workers. From November 2024 until March 2nd this year, every single person they killed was a civilian. Every single one.
During the ceasefire, they systematically targeted civilians and civilian infrastructure on a daily basis. I know because I was there and so were my colleagues from Al Akhbar, Al Mayadeen and Al Manar.

Here is a video report and funeral video of a family that was attacked by an Israeli drone. An 18 month old child was beheaded, as was his father. What you see the paramedics picking out of the upholstery are baby teeth and skull fragments.

This is what it is actually like to report from the frontline in Lebanon.

Nada Abu Alrub: "It was like a slaughterhouse, like a horror movie. Kids were arriving with their neck open, with their brain matter out, they'd basically been targeted while they were playing.. people coming in in pieces, many arrived in plastic bags"

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

An Israeli attack on a tent camp in Gaza City has killed at least six Palestinians and wounded a dozen more, including children.

Hamas condemned it as ‘a massacre of women and children’, accusing Israel of undermining ceasefire-related talks in Cairo.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Israel just assassinated Ali in South Lebanon.

Not a fighter. Not armed.

Ali was a nurse.

They hunted him down with a drone, and executed him as he made his way to work at Hiram hospital in Tyre.

Israel isn’t targeting combatants.

It’s targeting the people who save lives.

🇵🇸 Gaza Municipalities Warn of “Most Dangerous Environmental Disaster in History”

Gaza’s municipal union and environmental authorities marked World Environment Day on Saturday from inside a waste dump in central Gaza City, warning of a full-scale health and environmental catastrophe with risks from environmental and groundwater contamination threatening more than 2 million Palestinians, Palestine Online reported.

🔸 Waste crisis
▪️ 380,000 cubic meters of waste accumulated at the Firas landfill over two years
▪️ Israel has blocked access to the main landfill at Juhr al-Dik, forcing garbage into residential areas
▪️ Rodents and insects spreading through displacement sites; sewage flowing into streets and toward the sea

🔸 Water and sanitation collapse
▪️ 80% of water infrastructure destroyed or damaged — available water down to less than 20% of pre-war levels
▪️ An estimated 320,000 sewage absorption pits now threatening soil and groundwater, with contamination risks expected to persist for years

🔸 Scale of destruction
▪️ 80% of buildings and facilities damaged or destroyed
▪️ 57+ million tonnes of rubble scattered across residential areas and camps

@adamjohnsonCHI, author of "How to Sell a Genocide: The Media's Complicity in the Destruction of Gaza" speaks to Pluto Press about the scale of suffering in Palestine.

“My friend was executed in front of my eyes.”

Read testimonies from people who went to food distribution points run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a devastating aid scheme that was operating in Gaza during 2025 and should never be replicated.

Tantura, le film sous-titré en français.

En 1948, quelques mois après la création d’Israël, des soldats juifs israéliens ont commis un massacre dans ce petit village côtier paisible. La brigade Alexandroni, une unité de l’organisation terroriste Haganah, attaque. Les soldats rassemblent les hommes, les femmes, les enfants. Ils violent des femmes. Ils exécutent. Au moins 250 morts, selon les témoins. Des enfants de 13 ans, une balle dans la nuque, sur la plage. À peine sortis de l’horreur nazie, certains ont reproduit les mêmes crimes sur des civils innocents. Plus tard, ils enterreront les corps dans des fosses communes pour cacher l’horreur.

Le chercheur israélien Teddy Katz documente les faits et recueille les aveux de soldats. L’un d’eux rigole : « Je ne me souviens pas du nombre d’Arabes que j’ai tués. » Un autre pleure, mais trop tard. Katz est traîné en justice, perd son diplôme et signe une rétractation qu’il regrettera amèrement. Les preuves, elles, ne se rétractent pas : les fosses communes sont toujours là. L’une d’elles, sous un parking, a été documentée par Forensic Architecture. Les vétérans avouent à la caméra, dans Tantura.

Ce n’est pas un mythe, pas une légende. C’est la Nakba. C’est Israël.

Dans ce film, on voit le déni dans lequel ils sont plongés. Ils n’admettront jamais avoir assassiné 250 personnes à Tantura. Alors, comment pourraient-ils reconnaître avoir tué des dizaines de milliers d’enfants à Gaza ? Le déni les suit depuis toujours. C’est leur armure. Et leur malédiction.

Le film est sous-titré en français. Regardez. Et n’oubliez pas.

🔴Lebanese Ministry of Public Health:

3,516 civilians killed and 10,674 wounded in Israeli attacks since March 2nd.

130 of those killed were medical professionals, including two paramedics targeted and killed today.

🔴 Less than a week after Israel burned several preteen children to death in their tents, four more residential apartments were set ablaze overnight, with Israel’s military burning entire families to death as they slept.

The strikes hit homes in Al-Shati refugee camp, the Karama neighborhood, Tel al-Hawa, and Sheikh Radwan in Gaza City.

BREAKING

Israel is now threatening to bomb the Christian Quarter in the city of Tyre, South Lebanon.

There are no military targets.

This is one of the oldest continuously inhabited Christian areas in southern Lebanon — over 2,000 years old.

Not a peep from Western governments

[Mohammad Alsaafin @malsaafin]

There was a point, 3 yrs ago, when Israel felt compelled to explain its attacks on hospitals. Then it realized Western govts aren’t fussed about such war crimes & Western media was happy to justify them. And so here we are: dozens of hospitals bombed in Gaza, Iran & Lebanon.
