In the past 24 hours #Israel has killed about 40 people in #Gaza, incl. 6 journalists, attacked the airport in #Yemen with further deaths & nearly killed the head of WHO Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. Gazans continue to starve. How can western governments allow this to continue? #GazaGenocide‌

“It’s the end of humanity.” Israeli forces unplugged oxygen supplies, stripped patients and forced them into the cold, and then burned Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of the last functioning hospitals in northern Gaza.

Trump & Musk have a problem with Wikipedia’s focus on non-profit decentralised information, collaboration & diversity. It’s not perfect but not billionaire controlled. All the more reason to support it. Elon Musk Takes Aim at #Wikipedia - Newsweek newsweek.com/elon-musk-take…

The last photo of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, detained after refusing to abandon his colleagues and patients. In just one image, we see both the power of Palestinian humanity and the moral weakness of all those complicit in genocide. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

On this New Year’s Eve, as the world celebrates, we honor the resilience of the Palestinian people. Through the rubble, the smoke, and the horrors of genocide, they remain unyielding. From 2024 to 2025, their message is clear: We are still here. Justice, liberation, and the fight

I am largely going to be inactive here. Please find me on @lylamehta.bsky.social & Prof Lyla Mehta@mas.to. I stayed here despite growing unease due to all the great connections, esp. w. global South folks & activists. But it's now too toxic & Musk is truly dangerous. Time to quit.
