1/ New from @amnesty: we have documented five unlawful Israeli attacks which caused mass civilian casualties in Gaza. They took place from 7 October and 12 October and must be investigated as war crimes.
Here is a short thread about what we found 👇

Journalists should remember that Israel's first response after they killed their colleague Shireen Abu-Akleh was to say Palestinians shot her. This is part of a consistent Israeli military information damage control strategy in response to such events.
"How to grieve, what meaning to give those tears, is cruelly a political question whether we like it or not," @gabrielwinant writes. https://t.co/sqoPD6T8Br
Western governments are criminalizing solidarity with Palestine because they know that people of conscience all over the world will not tolerate the unfolding Israeli genocide that they have funded, armed, and endorsed.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
If it’s not paired with any change to the admin’s policy of uniform support for Israel’s siege—which as far as I can see, it’s not—then his “tone” is entirely useless. Enough giving credit for liberal handwringing. It’s PR ass-covering and nothing more
An Al Jazeera digital investigation reveals that a video that the Israeli army claims to show the killing of four Palestinian fighters, is in fact four unarmed Palestinian men surrendering to Israeli soldiers before being shot at close range.
Israel is now bombing bus convoys of Palestinians they told to flee to the south of Gaza. 70 killed so far. Thousands aimlessly walk while bombs drop around them. My friend said internet will be cut off in a few hours w/no more contact: “I hope these are not my last words to you”
#Nakba2023 is what happening in #Gaza, not sure if this will go thru, masses flocked to the south of which many don't know where to go & have no1 there. Complete blackout that will deepen by tonight. Keep speaking about Gaza. Don't forget us. #GazaUnderAttack
When I was in Palestine we visited a Palestinian refugee camp. My western American mind was expecting an encampment of tents but instead found a community that looked & felt eerily similar to reservations in the US
I write a diary on every war night in Gaza. I share human details about my life like other Gazans living under war.
Here is the latest:
#Day 4
Today in Gaza, I no longer believe we will get out of this alive https://t.co/HG0AISYZjb via @AJEnglish
