Even behind bars, my father never stops making history. Today, he is honored with the 2025 Human Rights Defender Award… Because truth cannot be imprisoned, and humanity knows no chains. Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya – the pride of Palestine.

This is not business as usual. My new UN report, From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide, is out today. It shows how corporations have fueled and legitimised the destruction of Palestine. Genocide, it would seem, is profitable. This cannot continue, accountability must

BREAKING: 🚨 Over 100 BBC staff have signed a letter declaring they're being FORCED to do PR for Israel. This is one of biggest scandals of Western journalism of our time. Fuck the BBC, you will be remembered as participants in genocide.

The Gaza health ministry just put out an urgent bulletin saying “unprecedented numbers of starving people of all ages are arriving at emergency rooms in a state of extreme exhaustion and fatigue” and are at risk of death. This is Israel’s unchecked policy of forced starvation.

Gaza is more than a humanitarian crisis – it is a moral crisis that challenges the global conscience. We will continue to speak out. But words don’t feed hungry children. The United Nations stands ready to make the most of a ceasefire to dramatically scale up humanitarian operations.

1 million women and girls are starving in Gaza 1 million women and girls are starving in Gaza 1 million women and girls are starving in Gaza We will keep repeating it and demanding delivery of lifesaving aid #ForAllWomenAndGirls in #Gaza, immediate ceasefire, and release of all

Let’s be clear: The creeping annexation of the occupied West Bank is illegal. It must stop. The wholesale destruction of Gaza is intolerable. It must stop. Unilateral actions that would forever undermine the two-state solution are unacceptable. They must stop.
