Let's be very clear about what we're seeing: Israel is turning Gaza into a series of smaller and smaller concentration camps. 2 million people corralled into so-called "humanitarian zones" of ~20% of the land (& attacked even there). Cut off from adequate food, water, medicine.

Situation in the State of Palestine: #ICC Pre-Trial Chamber I rejects the State of Israel’s challenges to jurisdiction and issues warrants of arrest for Benjamin Netanyahu and Yoav Gallant. Learn more ⤵️ icc-cpi.int/news/situation…

A thread of states that have said they will honour and/or welcome the ICC warrants issued for Israeli officials Netanyahu and Gallant. This highlights Israel’s growing isolation as they won’t be able to enter these countries on pain of arrest. Netherlands 🇳🇱 🧵

We are outraged after an Israeli drone strike almost hit 5 of our Palestinian and international staff on their way home from Nasser hospital in Khan Younis. As always, the Israeli authorities were notified about our movements and the vehicle was identifiable with an MSF logo.

So Nigel Farage, who has repeatedly suggested that migration puts women's safety at risk, has been harbouring a senior colleague who was jailed for violently assaulting his own girlfriend

We are in awe of the determination & bravery of Nikita Hand as she endured the civil process to seek justice for the brutality she received at the hands of Conor McGregor. We hope that the verdict today gives Nikita a sense of vindication and will help her healing and recovery.

Difficult to describe what a dangerous moment we are in. The owner of this site/richest man in the world/closest adviser to the next president is promoting a Tommy Robinson (!) documentary to his 200 million followers. This is the mainstreaming of violent, Islamophobic fascism.

Our initial reaction to the Scottish Budget: a statement with an eye on the election, but announcements without costs attached and no accounting for the increase in NICs are risky - and make us wonder if any lessons on financial planning have been learned buff.ly/4giO0nJ

Now that Turkey is trying to eliminate #Rojava, let’s revisit the struggle of the revolutionary women of the #YPJ, who have built one of the most progressive systems of governance in #Rojava. Zilan Cûdî, a revolutionary Kurdish woman from the YPJ who bravely fought against ISIS
