Up to 700 million people could be forced to migrate by 2050 due to declining land productivity, coupled with climate change which significantly affects global drylands. 🏡 This poses severe risks of forced migration, food insecurity and regional socioeconomic instability. 🌍

📌 Released Palestinian prisoner Khaled Al-Sayfi has died a week after his release from Israeli prisons in critical condition, from the Dheisheh Refugee Camp, Shehab News reports.

Israeli human rights group B’Tselem says Israeli prisons have been turned into a coordinated network of torture camps for Palestinian detainees, documenting widespread, systematic abuse including deliberate starvation, denial of medical care, extreme overcrowding, prolonged shackling, physical and psychological violence, and in many cases sexual violence including rape, based on testimonies and monitoring by the group. 

The report lists 84 Palestinians who died in custody since October 2023, including one minor, with prisoners from Gaza, the West Bank, and Israeli citizenship, and notes that Israeli authorities are still withholding most of their bodies.
