Hello all. I am going to delete the account because Elon thinks it's fine that Grok can basically post abusive pictures, including women and children on request. Follow me on insta. Look for Imranism. Respect all. X
I've just turned my phone on after Yom Kippur, when like many British Jews I go out of digital contact. I've just felt a visceral shock of such terrible news. My thoughts and prayers with all affected in Manchester. We cannot allow division and hatred to rule. I'm proudly British, my family have been in the UK for many generations. I believe this is one of the great tolerant societies that revels in, and should be proud of, freedom of worship for all, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Hindus and more. These individuals seeking to divide us will not win. We must not let them.
🚨REACTION: Responding to Gaza airdrops and Israel’s announcement of a "tactical pause," @Oxfam says what’s needed is the immediate opening of all crossings for full, unhindered, and safe aid delivery across all of Gaza.

Our father lived in Pakistan - away from us - for most of our lives. Not because he had to, but because he chose to stand up against a corrupt regime. While he wasn’t there every day as a father, Pakistan had him as a leader. He gave his country everything: hospitals, universities, and a movement for justice.
He’s been offered the chance to spend the rest of his days in comfort - going on walks or playing cricket with us in England. Instead, he chooses to remain locked away in a dark prison cell.
His sacrifice is for Pakistan.
His strength comes from its people.
So, the lines between popular non-fiction and truth have sadly been blurred again recently.
Why not read some fiction inspired by some deeply felt real-life experiences?
In Truth, Madness by war correspondent @ajimran feels…
A lot of fascinating stuff happening in Syria right now. Journalist @ajimran breaks it down and offers some lively descriptions of what’s happening on the ground in our conversation for @AJEPodcasts#TheTake. 🎧
US President Trump announced removing decades-long sanctions against Syria. What might this mean for the country's future?

Palestinians mark prisoners day today.
Thousands of Palestinians are locked up under what Israel calls administrative detention, detained indefinitely with no charge or trial, & Palestinians in Israeli jails are routinely tortured & denied medical treatment
@ajimran reports
"Some spoke of the torture at the hands of the Israeli army"
@ajimran reports on Israel releasing 80 Palestinian hostages, some of whom have been held since October 2023. As Imran notes, Israel holds thousands of Palestinians in their prisons.
Palestinians living under Israels brutal military occupation in East Jerusalem and the West Bank are on strike in solidarity with the people of Gaza.
@ajimran: "Under Israeli occupation & oppression this act is one of defiance and is a powerful symbol of Palestinian solidarity"
Israel continues bombarding Gaza, killing several Palestinians, including a journalist in southern Khan Younis and a child in northern Gaza City.

Ukrainians marked the third anniversary of the start of the Russia-Ukraine war as world leaders met at a summit in Ukraine's capital to discuss national security guarantees. Al Jazeera’s @ajimran reports ⤵️
After seeing this report from @ajimran@AJEnglish IMO it would be extortion for @ZelenskyyUa to trade the rare minerals #Ukraine has for weapons from Trump, when it was never like that almost 3 years prior. Zelensky shouldn't trust Trump because he's friends w/Putin #SlavaUkraïni
Sharing #Ukraine's estimated US$12 trillion in rare earths & minerals with the free world makes good common sense. Watch from 1:21 as I reaffirm @ZelenskyyUa's rock-solid position on developing our resources to @ajimran of @AJEnglish & #StandWithUkraine🇺🇦! https://t.co/Tz8hTwOMLR
Israeli troops used a US munition to target & kill Lebanese journalists on Oct 25, @will_christou reports. The team's guest house was under constant Israeli surveillance, meaning IDF troops would have known the location was used by press -- not militants. https://t.co/X4p5E8zNu0
For years, this spot served as a beloved destination for fast food and sandwiches in the southern suburb, while also housing numerous families in its residential spaces. With an Israeli airstrike, it vanished, taking with it the memories of dozens of families who once called it home.
Or who are currently risking so much to make sure we do not forget the terrible human cost - and we are sending our love today to one of our novelists, and a member of our collective, war correspondent @ajimran.
