@NhlanhlaNyosi I made a chow mein with ostrich steak. Deliberately didn't say anything until the kids were halfway through. One had already eaten all her meat and struggled to finish the noodles - completely weirded out by the ostrich. Later she came home from school and ate the leftovers.

Dr Hussam Abu Safiya has been held in Israeli captivity for 536 days, subjected to torture, inhumane living conditions and medical neglect. No charges have been brought against him. What is Israel holding him for?

@Khuze_Elikhulu Didn't this happen when they sent an assassin to kill some Rwandan dude in SA?

Israel has no sovereignty over Hebron or any part of occupied Palestinian territory. Smotrich’s move to strip Hebron Municipality of its authority, including over Ibrahimi Mosque, is a blatant violation of int. law.

These illegal measures are void. Int. community must act now.

@IraninSA quick question - why do they keep referring to Iran as the Islamic Republic of in world cup coverage but Egypt isn't the Arab Republic of? Does Iran push for use of the full name? Or are they trying to push Islamophobia by deliberately including it?

@XolsTYQ @zan_diva Muslims also slaughter at home sometimes. I'm guessing these rules would apply to Muslims living in this complex as well.

@ahmed_baokbah @Reycholosimeone Why blame FIFA??? They normally force host countries to allow everyone in, except apparently for when it's the US. They're calling out FIFA's hypocrisy, not calling out Saudi. If you can't see that no one can help you.

[Rukeya.parker @PRukeya]

@ahmed_baokbah @Reycholosimeone It's not a matter of the flag. It's a matter of respect - in a space where all nations should be equal, they very obviously are not. And I'm not saying the Saudi flag should be on the ground. But the flag is afforded more respect than people by FIFA and the organisers

Israeli Supreme Court rejected, once again, an appeal against Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya’s detention

According to his lawyer, the Israeli Supreme Court has ruled that Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya will remain imprisoned under the “Unlawful Combatant” law, rejecting an appeal against his detention despite no charges being brought against him.

The decision allows the continued detention of Dr. Abu Safiya without charge, in a manner that contradicts international law and the Geneva Conventions, which afford special protection to medical personnel during armed conflicts.

Dr. Abu Safiya remains held in solitary confinement at Nafha Prison under harsh conditions, while being denied necessary medical care and other basic rights.

محامي الدكتور الأسير حسام أبو صفية، ناصر عودة:

▪️"المحكمة العليا الإسرائيلية" تصدر قرارًا برفض الاستئناف المقدّم بشأن احتجاز الدكتور حسام أبو صفية، وتوافق على استمرار اعتقاله وفقًا لقانون المقاتل غير الشرعي، دون تقديم أي اتهام ضده، في تناقض واضح مع القانون الدولي واتفاقيات جنيف، التي تكفل حماية خاصة للطواقم الطبية أثناء النزاعات المسلحة.

▪️ولا يزال الدكتور أبو صفية محتجزًا في العزل الانفرادي في سجن نفحة، في ظروف احتجاز قاسية، مع حرمانه من العلاج الطبي اللازم ومن أبسط الحقوق الأساسية المكفولة له.
