Headed up to @Mowglistfood's new #Bristol gaff today: lovely service, great place, fresh fresh food, but left feeling green around gills from so much sugar in all our veggie & fish dishes. This ain't Indian! Wishing well, but won't be back...

UN flags are lowered to half-mast at Headquarters and offices around the world on Monday to mourn and honour our colleagues who have been killed in Gaza in recent weeks.

Civilians and humanitarians are #NotATarget.

[United Nations @UN]

Babies are #NotATarget.

Schools are #NotATarget.

Children are #NotATarget.

Civilians are #NotATarget.

Hospitals are #NotATarget.

Humanitarians are #NotATarget.

Healthcare workers are #NotATarget.

They must be protected.

At all times.

Everywhere.

[Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières @MSF_canada]

The huge number of children whose wounds we have treated or bodies we have delivered to hospital morgues obliterates any notion that adequate precautions are being taken to protect civilians. #Gaza

A historic day in London, all over the U.K. and the world 🇵🇸✊🏽

[Jewish Voice for Peace @jvplive]

Israeli government officials express their genocidal intentions loud and clear.

Anything but a call for a ceasefire is an endorsement of this violence.

Yesterday dozens of Na’amodniks joined the Jewish Bloc at the @PSCupdates London rally. We were honoured to join a bloc of Jews who are calling for an immediate ceasefire. 📷🧵

Staff at Shifa Hospital have shared this photo of their heroic attempts to keep the premature babies alive in an operating theatre after they were forced to shut down the NICU. Taken 6pm today.

Attacks on the hospital must end, and aid must be allowed to reach it. #CeasefireNOW

[Norman Finkelstein @normfinkelstein]

Targeting Hospitals

A hospital is the bedrock and ultimate symbol of Humanity.  Israel's open, systematic targeting of Gaza's hospitals leaves no room for doubt: it has embarked on a barbarian war of total annihilation in Gaza.

[Richard McNeil-Willson @mcneilwillson]

📢 In our thousands, in our millions, we are all Palestinians.

Protesters in every direction, as far as the eye can see, from Hyde Park to Central London.

#CeasefireInGazaNOW

[Led By Donkeys @ByDonkeys]

We had planned to project this message to Suella Braverman onto Parliament from @NaamodUK, but the police didn't let us

[Claudia Webbe @ClaudiaWebbe]

We cannot be silent or silenced

In our thousands in our millions we are all Palestinians.

This is London, England

[Nadeem Ahmed @Muqadaam]

One of the biggest protests in the history of Great Britain

We did it 1 MILLION

#CeasefireNOW

[Richard McNeil-Willson @mcneilwillson]

Hyde Park is a sea of red, green, black and white.

Absolutely incredible numbers and noise, and a wonderful atmosphere of hope and unity.

London demands #CeasefireNOW

@TomiconicX @SkyNews IRemembrance Day's tomorrow.

[William Dalrymple @DalrympleWill]

Utterly unacceptable. We are watching ten of thousands of innocents being slaughtered with no escape. Our leaders have completely lost their moral bearings.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

Israel's ministers, parliamentarians, generals, president, & prime minister have all said stuff about Gaza that *sounds* genocidal to a lot of experts on genocide.

I laid out the evidence on the @MehdiHasanShow.

Israeli officials, in their own words:

[Grace Blakeley @graceblakeley]

If Keir Starmer cannot call for an end to the mass slaughter of innocent children, then he is worse than pointless. He’s complicit.
