Trump just shrunk Bears Ears by 91% and Grand Staircase-Escalante by 90%. Bears Ears was the first national monument co-managed by tribes. Five tribes spent years building that partnership. It's been walked back. 100,000+ archeological sites now exposed to mining and drilling.

💢 “Killings During The Day, Bombings During The Night”

Israeli forces issued fresh evacuation orders across central Gaza on Wednesday night, followed by some of the heaviest airstrikes of the day, according to Gaza relief committee coordinator Eyad Amawi.

Amawi told Drop Site that entire residential blocks in the Maghazi refugee camp, in central Gaza, were ordered to evacuate and then hit with heavy bombs, while another evacuation warning was issued for central Deir al-Balah nearby.

“Tonight is incredibly difficult,” he said, sharing footage showing the bombardment striking his refugee camp moments earlier.

He described the pattern as Gaza’s daily reality: killings during the day and heavy bombardment at night to level residential areas and force families to flee in search of safety once again.

The LAPD has stopped working with Flock.

The police department halted the use of Flock AI license plate surveillance cameras, as government officials cite concerns over data privacy.

Local organizers are demanding that the LAPD not find a replacement for Flock, and instead permanently stop the use of AI survillience cameras.

My gosh.
Yesterday, Egypt Coach Hossam Hassan asked FIFA to use its "soft power" to help Palestinians.
Today, just as the Egypt-Argentina match began, Israel killed Mohammed al-Wahidi, of the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza — which also organized Gaza screenings of the matches.

Right now, Cuba is under a total blackout. After six months of a fuel blockade and just one shipment received, the electrical grid is under heavy strain. Trump’s siege on Cuba is real, relentless and claiming lives off the news cycle. The world has to end this genocidal war!

The family of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya says his health has sharply deteriorated after more than 555 days in Israeli prisons.

Dr. Abu Safiya had served as a pediatrician and director of the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza until he was abducted by Israel in December of 2024. He's been held without charge ever since.

In a video message, Dr. Abu Safiya's son Elyas said his father showed clear signs of torture and medical neglect during a recent meeting with his lawyer in which Dr. Abu Safiya described being beaten with a hammer.

"My father was unable to breathe. My father was unable to speak. His face was disfigured from the marks of torture and pain," Elyas Abu Safiya said. "We still call out, plead, appeal and beg to all the free people of the world, and to everyone with an atom of humanity in their heart, to save my father's life before it's too late."

A global call is being made to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian doctor Hussam Abu Safiya and other abducted medical professionals.

Supporters are urged to gather in London on 7 July at 6:00 pm outside Downing Street to send a clear message that they are not forgotten.

People across the United Kingdom and around the world are also encouraged to organise peaceful solidarity rallies in the coming days.

For your information, this video was taken just an hour ago. It shows Israel blowing up buildings east of Khan Younis.

Again and again, shame on Western media that continues to call this a “ceasefire.”

By the Western media’s definition, an Israeli “ceasefire” apparently includes the continued killing of families, especially those with very young children, blowing up residential buildings, burning tents sheltering displaced people, banning international journalists, blocking life-saving medical supplies, and restricting, and on many days completely preventing, patients from leaving Gaza for urgently needed medical treatment abroad.

Ten of Israel’s most well-documented crimes in Gaza in 1000 days of genocide:

[BDS movement @BDSmovement]

1,000 days of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians.
1,000 days of genocidal complicity.
1,000 days of escalating BDS pressure.

Boycott, divest and sanction. Until Israel’s genocide ends. Until Palestine is free.
