On 16 June, we convened a group of amici to submit observations in the Al Hassan reparations proceedings before the International Criminal Court. The brief highlights gendered and intersectional harm, presumption of victimhood, and risk of early release. More: 4genderjustice.org/our-latest-p...

“We are witnessing acts of war in Gaza that show an utter disregard for human life.” Signed by heads of OCHA UNICEF UNOPS UNRWA WFP WHO www.unrwa.org/newsroom/off...
For over a month, no commercial or humanitarian supplies have entered Gaza. 

More than 2.1 million people are trapped, bombed and starved again, while, at crossing points, food, medicine, fuel and shelter supplies are piling up, and vital equipment is stuck. 

Over 1,000 children have reportedly been killed or injured  in just the first week after the breakdown of the ceasefire, the highest one-week death toll among children in Gaza in the past year.

Just a few days ago, the 25 bakeries supported by the World Food Programme during the ceasefire had to close due to flour and cooking gas shortages.

The partially functional health system is overwhelmed. Essential medical and trauma supplies are rapidly running out, threatening to reverse hard-won progress in keeping the health system operational.

The latest ceasefire allowed us to achieve in 60 days what bombs, obstruction and lootings prevented us from doing in 470 days of war: life-saving supplies reaching nearly every part of Gaza.While this offered a short respite, assertions that there is now enough food to feed all Palestinians in Gaza are far from the reality on the ground, and commodities are running extremely low.

We are witnessing acts of war in Gaza that show an utter disregard for human life.

New Israeli displacement orders have forced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to flee yet again, with no safe place to go. 

No one is safe. At least 408 humanitarian workers, including over 280 from UNRWA, have been killed since October 2023.

With the tightened Israeli blockade on Gaza now in its second month, we appeal to world leaders to act – firmly, urgently and decisively – to ensure the basic principles of international humanitarian law are upheld. 

Protect civilians. Facilitate aid. Release hostages. Renew a ceasefire.

It was a lovely sight to see Sydney University fly the trans flag for Transgender Day of Visibility. At a time when academic institutions are ignoring trans voices and countenancing transphobia because of political and other pressures, small gestures of symbolic support like this feel significant. 🏳️‍⚧️

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence. This is a campaign of eradication. www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/rcna...
"A screenshot of an NBC News article headline. The headline reads: 'Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a felony punishable by jail.' Below the headline, a subtext states: 'The bill, while unlikely to pass, highlights the increasing extremism of legislation targeting trans people, especially in Texas, in recent years.' The NBC News logo is visible at the top, along with a navigation bar that includes a 'WATCH' button and a user profile icon."

A glimmer of justice for gender persecution under Taliban rule. Strong charges, spanning the obliteration of women and girls' voices and liberties, violence to LGBTIQ+ folks, and male defenders of gender equality too. I did a lightning quick spot on ABC Radio on this tonight.
