🚨BREAKING : Nurse Mohammed Al-Habil was killed while filling water on the roof of his home, and his children were injured after an Israeli strike hit the house in the Abu Iskandar area, north of Gaza City.
An Aboriginal woman in Canberra's jail was pepper-sprayed while experiencing a severe mental health crisis. According to official findings, she lost consciousness, was escorted by 14 correctional officers to a crisis unit, and did not receive medical attention until the following day.
The following day.
Anyone who has experienced pepper spray knows the pain can be excruciating. Burning eyes. Burning skin. Difficulty breathing. Yet this woman was allegedly left without a medical assessment until the next day.
Then there is the case of Bennet Schwartz.
A Sydney prisoner suffering severe PTSD who repeatedly begged for help and repeatedly requested his prescribed psychiatric medication. Court evidence later revealed he went approximately two months without receiving it. Two months. He later died in custody.
This is not happening in some brutal overseas dictatorship. This is Australia.
And I know how dangerous this can be because I experienced it myself. When I entered prison, I was prescribed medication for major depression and PTSD. I was left without it for weeks. The result was severe akathisia, psychological torment and eventually psychosis.
How many more stories do we need?

A man begging for psychiatric medication for two months before dying in custody.
Prisoners with serious mental illnesses going without prescribed treatment.
This is barbaric. It is abhorrent. It is unbelievably cruel.
Australia urgently needs a major independent review into prison healthcare, mental health treatment and the management of vulnerable prisoners in custody.
A prison sentence is the punishment.
Untreated mental illness, or any illness, should never be part of it.

Elon Musk is now the first trillionaire, but no one is celebrating this terrifying milestone.
With $1 trillion, Musk could give $100 to every single person on Earth, and still be one of the ten richest people in the world.
He’d still have $184 billion in the bank!
For those wondering the visa bond implemented by the Trump admin against Cape Verde is $15,000 per person. Many players in this tournament are here without family or personal support because they literally cannot afford the visa.
Russia launched more than 60 missiles at the Ukrainian capital alone. In total, 70 missiles and 611 drones were used against Ukraine. Their targets were innocent people sleeping in the middle of the night and a 1,000-year-old Cathedral.
gaza is the worst humanitarian catastrophe of the modern era. even the warsaw ghetto didn’t have drones and quadcopters hovering above them 24/7, ready to kill them at any moment. just think about what that does to people mentally

Israeli drones targeted me while I was clearly filming a report in an open space with all requirements (press signs on the car, vest and helmet with press signs, cellphones open and not doing anything else.
I was told that Lebanese army was blocking the road somewhere, so i went there searching for where the Lebanese army is.
I stopped at Arnoun-Yohmor-Kfartebnit roundabout because i didn't want to go further.
I got outside my car, with my cameras in the cage and my microphone with PressTV logo.
I was filming when the Israeli drones deliberately attacked where I was standing, and not my car.
Two brave men were able to come to my rescue after about 15 to 20 minutes. I was trying to get away from my car as I was expecting they might retarget it.
6 shrapnels hit my body (1 right chest, 3 right leg, 2 left leg).
I am better now.
Targeting journalists is a war crime.
I wish if any international legal side was able to benefit from this video to
Glory to the resistance, our only hope in front of those zionist criminals.

I was very lucky to see Barry Manilow last week in Leeds on his final UK tour. He was amazing. Such a joyful evening filled with warmth and absolute bangers.
