The UN report, entitled "Anatomy of a Genocide", says Israel has violated three of the five acts listed in the UN Genocide Convention. Israel is on the UN's “black list” of countries and organizations that harm children. On the so-called “list of shame”, Israel is listed alongside “terrorist groups” such as Daesh/ISIS, al-Qaida and Boko Haram. The UN’s international court of justice (ICJ) has ordered Israel to end its occupation of the Palestinian territories “as rapidly as possible”.
A new initiative named the Anti-Zionist America Political Action Committee (Azapac) released an unprecedented video ad on Monday calling for donations and volunteers to help it build momentum and counter pro-Israeli lobbying groups in the US. The project, which kicked off earlier this year, is spearheaded by former New York University professor and author Michael Rectenwald, a self-described Libertarian. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
For a second night in a row, members of the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) say their ships have come under attack while docked in Tunisia.

The incident follows Monday night’s strike on the flotilla’s main ship. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
Qatar’s Foreign Ministry has rejected claims from US President Donald Trump that Doha was warned in advance of Israel’s airstrike on its soil. The ministry called the statements false and misleading. Majed Al-Ansari, adviser to the Qatari Foreign Ministry, said that “what is being circulated about Qatar being informed in advance of the attack is baseless.” 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
Tens of thousands of people in Australia have joined rallies to demand an end to the genocide in Gaza. It's part of a national day of action, with protesters calling on the government to take a tougher stance against Israel. Organisers say it's one of the largest coordinated demonstrations in the nation's history. Al Jazeera’s Sarah Clarke reports from Brisbane. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
When we speak of the devastation in Gaza, the blame does not rest solely on the generals and politicians of the occupying power. The tragedy is sustained by the international system that arms, trains and protects it. And Britain, far from being a neutral observer, is among the most significant enablers of this machinery of destruction. For more than 22 months, the Gaza Strip has been subjected not to war, but to genocide. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News image
United States predicted Israel might use nuclear weapons against Iraq during the war to liberate Kuwait from Iraqi occupation, newly declassified British documents reveal. On 2 August 1990, Iraqi forces invaded and occupied Kuwait. After Iraq refused to withdraw despite global condemnation, a US-led coalition launched Operation Desert Storm on 17 January 1991 to expel the Iraqi military. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News image
President Donald Trump has said little about his idea of relocating many of the Gaza Strip’s 2 million Palestinians to other countries since he stunned the world by announcing it in February. But Israel’s leaders have run with it, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at one point listed it as a condition for ending the 22-month war sparked by Hamas’ Oct. 7, 2023, attack. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
Microsoft is investigating how Israel’s military surveillance agency, Unit 8200, is using its Azure cloud storage platform, amid concerns that company staff in Israel may have concealed key details about sensitive military projects. Senior executives are assessing what data Unit 8200 holds in Azure after a joint investigation [..] revealed that the agency has stored a vast collection of intercepted phone calls in the platform. https://english.almayadeen.net/news/technology/microsoft-probes-israeli-unit-8200-for-azure-use-in-gaza--wb 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
It is a mistake to think that Benjamin Netanyahu is solely responsible for Israel’s genocide or that removing him would bring it to an end. How has Israel been able to conduct a campaign of genocide in Gaza that has lasted almost two years? In Israel, two distinct but complementary narratives offer answers to this question. One denies the genocide altogether, urging the world to ignore Israel’s criminal conduct in Gaza. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
It is hard to describe in words the pain of witnessing your people being destroyed for more than 670 days. It is even more unfathomable to contemplate another Israeli escalation, after witnessing so much suffering and so many crimes committed against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip. How can this be allowed in full view of the world for so long? Will the world stand by? 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News image

Police in London have arrested hundreds of people at a protest in support of the group Palestine Action, which was classified as a “terror organisation” by the British government last month. The Metropolitan Police said 365 demonstrators had been arrested at Parliament Square by 6pm local time on Saturday “for supporting a proscribed organisation”. Al Jazeera’s Sonia Gallego reports from the scene of that protest in London. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
Israel has dropped 85,000 tonnes of bombs on Gaza. More than the firebombing of Dresden. More than the London Blitz. More destructive than “Little Boy” in Hiroshima. This is not warfare, but genocide through total extermination. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
A leading Israeli newspaper is facing criticism for openly pushing zionists in New York to derail the campaign of Zohran Mamdani, a progressive Democratic candidate for mayor, through coordinated manipulative tactics modeled on the 2019 UK smear campaign against Jeremy Corbyn. Zvika Klein, editor of the Jerusalem Post, published a guide calling on New York zionists to unite against Mamdani. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
The UK government’s ban on Palestine Action is at odds with international law. Volker Turk, the UN high commissioner for human rights, said that the UK’s decision to proscribe the group as a terrorist organisation was “disproportionate and unnecessary” and called for the designation to be rescinded. He said: “UK domestic counter-terrorism legislation defines terrorist acts broadly to include ‘serious damage to property’. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
At 10:00 am on July 4 [..] Shaun Maguire, the multi-millionaire general partner at Sequoia Capital, one of the most esteemed venture capital firms in Silicon Valley, was rage-tweeting. "[Zohran] Mamdani comes from a culture that lies about everything," he posted. "It’s literally a virtue to lie if it advances his Islamist agenda. The West will learn this lesson the hard way." 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
If damaging two synagogues in Melbourne is an act of hate, does not the same expression apply far more strongly to Israel’s destruction of nearly 80 percent of Gaza’s mosques? In early July, someone ran up to the front door of the East Melbourne Hebrew Congregation synagogue, threw inflammable liquid onto it, set fire to it, and ran off. The paint was scorched off the lower part of the door but no other damage was done. https://www.palestinechronicle.com/the-greatest-hate-crime-of-all-gaza-in-ruins-the-west-in-silence/ 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
Glastonbury Festival organisers said they are “appalled” at Bob Vylan’s comments and that chants about the Israeli military “very much crossed a line”. The festival organisers' comments come after police said they are assessing videos from the band's performance on Saturday, along with Irish trio Kneecap’s set. Rapper Bobby Vylan, led crowds on the festival’s West Holts Stage in chants of “death, death to the IDF”. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News image
Early estimates indicate that Israel’s war with Iran is costing the country hundreds of millions of dollars a day. “The biggest single cost” is that of the interceptors “needed to blow up incoming Iranian missiles, which alone can amount to between tens of millions to $200 million a day.” Other factors are ammunition and aircraft, as well as the extensive damage to buildings, which is estimated to be at least $400 million. https://www.palestinechronicle.com/israels-war-on-iran-costing-hundreds-of-millions-of-dollars-a-day-report/ 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
A Columbia University graduate has been denied entry into the United States and deported following 12 hours of detention at the Los Angeles International Airport. Australian writer Alistair Kitchen says agents questioned him about his views on Israel and Palestine and downloaded the contents of his phone. “They were waiting for me when I got off the plane. I didn’t even make it into the queue for passport processing,” he says. 🕎 🇵🇸 ☮️ #Gaza #Palestine #Press #News
