[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

A court in Israel says the two volunteers abducted in international waters from a Gaza-bound aid flotilla will not be released.

The lawyer for Brazilian national Thiago Avila and Spanish Saif Abu Keshek says they have been abused in custody.

Brazil and Spain say their abduction and detention are illegal.

They’re not even subtle.

BREAKING:

Trump and Israel dropped bombs on a warehouse full of medicines and baby formula in Hamedan, Iran today — completely obliterating it.

Not a military target.

Medicines. Baby formula.

[Dimitri Lascaris @dimitrilascaris]

The fastest way to deplete the munitions stocks of the United States and Israel?

Inflatable hospitals.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Why @Reuters? Is someone blocking aid to Gaza??

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

“Restarted”??

Israel has carried continuous attacks on Lebanon since the so-called ceasefire began, without ever fully withdrawing from Lebanese territory.

What is this headline @CNN?

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

🚨 Watch: Footage from Palestine National TV shows Israeli soldiers executing two detained Palestinians in cold blood during a raid in Jenin in the northern occupied West Bank today.

Their hands were raised, they posed no threat, and Israeli soldiers murdered them anyway.

Hi @YouTube,

This BT News video has 762 views in 5 hours … on a channel with over 1 million subscribers…

That means not even 0.1 percent of our audience has seen this video.

How is that statistically possible? What explains this??

[Mariam Barghouti مريم البرغوثي @MariamBarghouti]

Since the ceasefire went into effect between Israel and Hamas, Israeli forces have killed at least 34 Palestinians, of them children and injured at least 122 Palestinians in Gaza alone.

In the West Bank, Israelis (the army and armed militias) continue to escalate violence against Palestinians, with at least 3 Palestinians killed in the last 72 hours, including an 11-year-old boy shot and killed in Hebron, south of the West Bank.

When I first spoke out about the genocide, I was one of the few voices in tech, and it came at a cost.

I faced sabotage especially from the VC class: lies, leaks, threats, and blocked investments.

It was painful, but I never once regretted standing up for the children in Gaza.

Today, the tide in tech has shifted. The truth is undeniable.

If you’ve been holding back, now is the time to speak out and call out anyone supporting or celebrating genocide. It won’t cost you much—in fact, it will earn you respect, and more importantly a clear conscious. Plus, alienating those who will hate you for speaking is a feature, not a bug.

If you’ve been following the news, 20 Gazan families were brought to the United States for medical treatment. But of course AIPAC boot licker Marco Rubio recently banned any additional visas for children looking for medical help last week.

Yesterday I met a family who is housing one of these families from Gaza. One of the children has a half blown off foot and the family was flown into the US to see how to salvage her little foot.

Some tidbits from my conversation that are seared into my brain:

- The kids have very sensitive hearing and he mentioned once there was a faint sound of a lawnmower and the kids all ran into closets because they thought drones were coming for them. Any whirring sound immediately triggers them.

- If the kids don’t see their mother in their field of vision for more than 30 seconds, they go into panic attacks. They’ve lost so many family members that they are afraid it might be the last time they see her.

- It’s hard taking them on public walks because the children are deathly afraid of dogs. Due to the piles of corpses in the street and the inability to do proper burials, the dogs have been eating the human bodies. In turn they now have a taste for flesh and routinely attack live humans, especially children and babies in tents.

If you support Laura Loomer and these other racist ghouls who are trying to prevent these children from getting medical attention, you’re a piece of shit.

God bless people like @paulg @amasad and @msrachelforlittles for speaking truth to power and defending these helpless children.

Dr. Abu Safiya has been arbitrarily detained for over 6 months by Israeli authorities. He has been subjected to abuse and other ill-treatment. Act now and call for his immediate and unconditional release.

“Its hand in Gaza’s food shortage,” unbelievable even from NYT.

It’s not a “hunger crisis,” Israel deliberately starved Gaza. This isn’t journalism, it’s complicity.

[Rep. Dave Min @CongressMin]

What’s happening in Gaza is devastating and heartbreaking, which is why I am once again calling on the Israeli government to ensure that starving Palestinians receive food and other humanitarian aid.

The suffering must end.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

“Hunger and death in Gaza”

Framing this story without saying ISRAEL IS DELIBERATELY STARVING AND KILLING PALESTINIANS is journalistic malpractice.

[Kaja Kallas @kajakallas]

The killing of civilians seeking aid in Gaza is indefensible.

I spoke again with @gideonsaar to recall our understanding on aid flow and made clear that IDF must stop killing people at distribution points.

All options remain on the table if Israel doesn’t deliver on its pledges

[Mairav Zonszein מרב זונשיין @MairavZ]

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, director of a northern Gaza hospital, has been held by the Israel Prison Service since Dec 2024. His lawyer says he has since lost 1/3 of his body weight, is suffering from heart issues and 'doesn't understand what he did'

"The powerful punishing those who speak for the powerless, it is not a sign of strength, but of guilt".

Reporter: What’s evidence that 🇮🇱 is actually shooting children as they queue for food? That’s clearly a war crime if it’s true

@1james_elder: I met those children… (explains aid issue)

Reporter: Can you answer my question

Elder: I met a boy who was hurt and 15 witnesses. He had tank shell in him, there’s only one side that has tanks…he died two weeks later
