⚠️#Lebanon’s humanitarian emergency is deepening.

Over 1 million people are displaced — and rising prices are pushing food beyond reach — as crisis enters third month.

WFP is scaling up assistance nationwide. 📣 But access and funding are critical to keep lifelines open. https://t.co/2Lcp7oKPWM

[Philip Proudfoot @PhilipProudfoot]

Britain has revoked the visa of @hasanthehun at the behest of a genocidal settler-colony that, at this exact time, is engaged in systematically destroying the 5000 year-old city of Tyre in Southern Lebanon.

We live in such a disgusting, vile, and barbarous world.

[Zachary Foster @_ZachFoster]

If Hezbollah killed 41 Israelis today, the antisemitism industry would describe it as a barbaric and savage massacre.

When Israel kills 41 Lebanese people, they call it a ceasefire.

[Jonathan Cook @Jonathan_K_Cook]

Israeli journalist Gideon Levy:

"Now that [Gaza] has been destroyed almost completely, Israel is advancing confidently toward the next phase: making the entire population permanently disabled, injured, sick, hungry, homeless and unemployed."

It's the prelude, says Levy, to mass expulsion.

"No society can function without teachers, doctors, social workers, engineers and clerks. And without a functioning society, it's easy to expel Gaza's residents to the four corners of the earth."

The UK ban on @hasanpiker and @cenkuygur is deeply disturbing for many reasons.

One: another assault on free speech, and specifically pro-Palestinian speech.

The assault on pro-Palestinian speech is the biggest assault on free speech in the West since McCarthyism 7 decades ago.

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

While there supposedly is a "ceasefire," the Israeli army has captured a strategic castle in its deepest incursion into Lebanon in 26 years. https://t.co/cMRnTVsfW9

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

This is a "ceasefire"? Netanyahu instructs the Israeli military to bomb the southern suburbs of Beirut, the most serious escalation of Israel’s war in Lebanon since the supposed ceasefire was announced on 17 April.

We call on Kuwaiti authorities to release Kuwaiti-American journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, detained under new security and fake news laws. Journalism is not a crime. #freeahmed #FreeAhmedEldin #journalismisnotacrime

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

Israel continues to try to sabotage the Iran ceasefire: Israeli forces struck more than 200 targets in southern Lebanon over the past 24 hours. https://t.co/S5wXz0AqNg

[Kenneth Roth @KenRoth]

Kuwait has detained award-winning Kuwaiti-American journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, who has not been seen or heard from since March 2 while visiting family in Kuwait. He was charged with vague offenses used to silence independent journalists. https://t.co/Wnhg5DZ4uq

Parents separated from their children during the @IDF massacre in #Lebanon are posting their children’s photographs on social media, pleading for help in finding them.

A Prime Minister that Spain can be proud of. (I wish that we could say the same about ours).

[Karim Emile Bitar @karimbitar]

🇱🇧 Last week, I was in Geneva to give a talk on the parallels between the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon and the 2026 war. I had a hunch that the mad escalation would continue.

On my very first slide, I put the August 1982 cover of @TIME magazine, showing a devastated Beirut.

بيروت | ١ آب ١٩٨٢

١٨٥ ألف قذيفة سقطت فوق بيروت الغربية والضاحية الجنوبية..وأدى القصف إلى استشهاد أكثر من ٢٠٠ وجرح أكثر من ٤٠٠

الغارات الجويّة قدرت بـ ٢١٠ غارات بمعدل غارة كل ٣ دقائق استمرت ١٥ ساعة متواصلة وشاركت فيها البوارج الحربية والدبابات الثقلية

[B.M. @ireallyhateyou]

Roald Dahl, 1983, about Beirut under Israeli bombs:
"One finds it almost impossible to believe that a civilised people could perform such acts of fiendish barbarism upon women and children and patients in hospitals... The Israelis pinpointed and hit no less than thirteen out of the seventeen hospitals in Beirut, one of them a mental hospital and many of the others full of children."

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

🇱🇧🇮🇱 The village of Al-Dwayr in southern Lebanon just got hit by an Israeli airstrike.

Yesterday, JD Vance said Israel was going to be restrained in attacking Lebanon. This doesn't look like restraint to me.
