As #Israeli forces raid Qalandia refugee camp - considered an essential passage way between the West Bank and Jerusalem - a reminder that @hrw.org found the last Israeli raids on refugee camps amounted to crimes against humanity + ethnic cleansing.

Israel’s attacks in Lebanon—and the threat of more to come—have caused more than a million people to flee their homes. Governments should urgently act to end the potential forced displacement of civilians in Lebanon, ensure their right to return, and prevent further attacks on Lebanese civilians.

#Israel's mass displacement in #Lebanon follows the same strategy used in Gaza, the West Bank and Syria. Forced displacement of civilians, widespread destruction and prevention of return. In short, potential war crimes. My opinion for @AJEnglish: aje.news/gn8v60

Israel’s displacement of civilians in Lebanon is a possible war crime

1/15 🧵 Today, the UK government will ask MPs to railroad through social security legislation that makes cuts to disability-related benefits to the next stage. @hrw.org joins 80+ other orgs asking MPs to reject the UCPIP Bill. It is bad news for human rights. www.ucpipbill.co.uk/wp-content/u...
Joint civil society statement on the UC & PIP Bill
Monday 30th June 2025
We are coming together as organisations committed to fighting poverty,
providing advice, and supporting and championing the rights of disabled
people, their families, and carers. We stand firmly with disabled people and
their organisations in calling for the UK government to withdraw the UC & PIP
Bill and to undertake genuine dialogue with disabled people to shape
reforms centred on the rights and dignity that all disabled people need and
deserve.
At a time when the share of GDP spent on working-age social security has
remained stable for the last ten years, cutting the incomes of disabled people
is a political choice. There is time for the government to pursue alternatives.
If this Bill is voted through, then by 2030 it will have cut PIP for more than
400,000 disabled people and Universal Credit for more than 700,000 people
who are disabled or have a long-term health condition. These numbers will
only increase in the years to follow.This Bill has also been brought before parliament:
• Without consultation with disabled people
• Without any assessment of its impact on health and employment
outcomes
• Before the planned review of the PIP assessment has properly begun
its work
• Without knowing how the outcome of the PIP review may affect these
reforms
The changes announced last week and the compressed timetable for scrutiny
mean that MPs will only have a single day to debate or amend the new
provisions. There is too much at stake for disabled people for this Bill to be
rushed through without the opportunity for meaningful challenge or
scrutiny. We urge all MPs to vote against this Bill at Second Reading.Signatories
