The Israeli army attacked a convoy of Red Crescent ambulances. They handcuffed the paramedics. They executed them by shooting them in the head and chest. Then they threw their bodies into a mass grave. What. Does. It. Take. theguardian.com/world/2025/a…

Israel has intentionally blocked aid in Gaza, targeted humanitarian workers & has now banned Gaza’s primary aid lifeline, UNRWA. Starvation is being used as a weapon of war. Words aren’t enough. We need sanctions, a full arms embargo & for the Israeli Ambassador to be expelled.

Barclay's Bank has totally divested all funds from Israel's largest arms firm, Elbit Systems, following 54 operations against the bank launched by Palestine Action, including 20 in one night.

Stop selling arms to Israel then.
Reports that Israeli strikes have hit health facilities and support personnel in Lebanon are deeply disturbing.   All parties must comply with international humanitarian law. Our priority is an immediate ceasefire on both sides so Israeli and Lebanese civilians can return home.

Stop selling arms to Israel then.
The situation in Lebanon is volatile and getting worse. The UK government is providing an option for British nationals to leave now. My message is clear – take it. register.service.csd.fcdo.go…

Governments, including UK and US, that did not hold Israel to account for its genocidal assault on Gaza are complicit in the horrors now unfolding in Lebanon. We demand nothing less than a full arms embargo, economic sanctions and ceasing of diplomatic support to Israel.

Between gaza, Lebanon, Sudan and the horrors of the music industry, the general state of the world, I feel so detached from this world. What do you mean we are just watching genocides unfold. Being muslim is honestly the only thing that helps keep me half sane.

Lebanese people are fearful of texting their loved ones in case their phones explode. Our government’s cowardly failure to call out this latest war crime is shameful. There is only one reasonable response: end all arms sales to Israel, now.

Last night saw @HackneyAbbott in conversation with @afuahirsch at @southbankcentre for her upcoming memoir, A Woman Like Me. A packed out 700 seater night filled with the INCREDIBLE wit, charm & strength of the two women on stage. @AmelFair @Jane54321 @shyamktweets @4nnaLambert

look at the examples of antisemitism given in this article… a mockery at this point. babies are being shredded alive, prisoners are being raped and tortured. and these extremists are still trying to tell the world it is racist to accuse Israel of genocide. shame on them

In the last week Israel: -blew up a Gaza drinking water reservoir -debated & defended the rape of Palestinians -killed the man negotiating a ceasefire with them -killed the journalist covering the story Netanyahu does not want peace. #NotAnotherBomb @JoeBiden @KamalaHarris
Not sure what it means when you say you want a ceasefire and then kill the person you’re supposed to be negotiating it with

Shame on every journalist in the West who has sat silently by and not said a word as over a hundred of their colleagues in Gaza have been killed by Israel, again and again and again. What happened to ‘journalism is not a crime’? To standing for press freedom? Shame on them.
This is the moment journalists in Gaza found out that their colleagues, Al Jazeera journalist Ismail al-Ghoul and his cameraman Ramy El Rify, were killed in an Israeli strike on Gaza City, bringing the number of killed Palestinian journalists since 7 October to 165. Video by: osama.s.ashi

This was Palestine’s first ever flag bearer at the Olympics, Majed Abu Maraheel, in Atlanta ‘96. Abu Maraheel was killed in Gaza last month. Unable to receive adequate care at Gaza’s destroyed hospitals, he died of kidney failure. These killings don’t figure in the death toll.
Palestine flag-bearers at the Paris 2024 Olympics 🇵🇸 24-year-old swimmer Valerie Tarazi, whose family is originally from Gaza. Top medalist at the 2023 Arab Games. 20-year-old Waseem Abu Sal from Ramallah, the first Palestinian boxer to ever compete at the Olympics.
