Israel is beheading journalists in Gaza

Today we will bury my colleague and friend Ismail Alghoul without a head. He was targeted intentionally and intensely ; his body was decapitated from his head. We continue to be targeted & the world is silent.

A moment of contemplation and self-reflection… then Israel kills someone

Tweet from Shael Ben-Ephraim:

I feel stupid and ashamed. In May, an expose came out on CNN detailing the abuses in Sde Taiman. Then, the NYT released their own article on it. Both were backed up with Israeli sources, crossed with Palestinian ones.
I dismissed them because my government sources and Israeli media denied them. My whole life I was told that the international media was out to get Israel. That they were all antisemites.
But today, I realized how much I was lied to. By my country. By my friends. By my media. Today, many of the people I talked to who denied these allegations admitted they were true.

And the worst part? None of this is coming to light because the IDF and government have changed their hearts about it. Its coming out because the pressure from the UK, ICC and ICJ was getting too great to ignore. This would get Netanyahu, Gallant and the Chief of Staff in serious trouble. So they finally said the truth.
That Israel is routinely torturing inmates. That sexual abuse is fairly common there. That people have been tortured to death.
Worst of all, many of the people in this facility were innocent. Rounded up by accident. But there was no real verification process before they were subjected to this hell on earth.
This can't go on.

Tweet from Shaiel Ben-Ephraim:
Today was the best day of the war for Israel in months. Getting the No. 2 in Hezbollah and the No. 1 in Hamas within 24 hours (assuming it was Israel). Hats off to Israeli intelligence. They have utterly redeemed themselves.

Tweet from that guy:
I am waiting for the artistic martyr renderings of Hanyieh. You just know they will be lit.

Graph showing posts per second by language over the past 24 hours.
English and Japanese dominate the graph during midday in each timezone, but in the past hour or two, Indonesian and Tagalog have seen a huge increase in usage.

Indonesian went from ~0/sec to ~2.4 posts/sec.
Tagalog went form ~0/sec to 0.6 posts/sec.

The graph is filtered to only show English, Japanese, Tagalog, and Indonesian. English and Japanese are the primary languages used by users on Bsky and Tagalog and Indonesia are the two languages showing a breakout moment right now.

Graph showing new records created on the event firehose for Bluesky.
The graph swells from around 60 events/sec 3 hours ago to around 140 events/sec now. The vast majority of that increase is in new follows created per second which reached a max of 52.5/sec up from a steady state of around 2.4/sec. This generally indicates new accounts or old accounts that are becoming active again.

"Sometime at the end of April, the subject matter experts were taken off the report and we were told it would be edited at a higher level. So I did not know what was in the report until it came out," she said. "But when the report came out, late on the Friday afternoon [on 10 Mayl, I read it and I had to reread it. I had to go back and print out that section and read it, because I could not believe it stated so starkly that we assess that Israel is not blocking humanitarian assistance.
"Two hours after it was released, I sent an email to my front office and the team that is working on this, saying I will resign as a result of this," Gilbert said.

This is scary: UNICEF vehicles attacked by Israel in what seems to be the same targeted manner that killed World Central Kitchen workers recently As many suspected, Biden having one tough conversation with Bibi (but continuing to ship weapons) did nothing to change Israeli conduct in Gaza

UNICEF said one of its convoys was awaiting entry to northern Gaza on Tuesday when it was hit by gunfire that appeared to have originated from Israeli forces. The convoy was carrying 10,000 liters of fuel to power water and sanitation points, as well as nutrition and medical supplies intended for Kamal Adwan Hospital, which has reported that children there are dying of malnutrition and dehydration.
The agency's armored car was hit three times as the group waited at a designated U.N. holding point along a route coordinated with Israeli forces, said Ingram, who was traveling with the convoy.

Amidst the revelations of mass IDF sexual assault, summary executions of medical personnel, and intentional mass starvation of 2.3 million humans, Biden just signed into a law a bill blocking UNRWA funding until March 2025. UNRWA is the only org capable of distributing aid in Gaza at scale.

Al Jazeera news snippet
UNRWA says US funding cut will
'compromise access to food' in
Gaza
The US's decision to cut hundreds of millions of dollars worth of funding to the
UN agency for Palestinian refugees
(UNRWA) will have serious implications for Palestinians in Gaza and the region.
"In Gaza, the humanitarian community is racing against the clock to avert famine. As the backbone of the humanitarian response, any gap in funding to UNRWA will compromise access to food, shelter, primary health care & education at a time of deep trauma," the organisation's chief, Philippe Lazzarini, wrote on X.
"Palestine Refugees are counting on the international community to step up support to meet their basic needs."

Washington, the UN agency's largest donor, cut its funding until March 2025 after an Israeli claim that about a dozen of UNRWA's thousands of staff participated in the October 7 attacks.

Tweet from Lazzarini:

The US foreign aid spending bill for 2024 limits funding to @UNRWA until March 2025.
This decision will have implications for Palestine
Refugees in #Gaza & the region.
I appreciate our committed supporters in the
US Congress who advocated on behalf of
UNRWA during this... Show more
