The Senate has rejected a pair of resolutions from Senator Bernie Sanders aimed at blocking weapon sales to Israel.
Genocidal rhetoric against Palestinians has moved from the fringes to mainstream Israeli discourse over recent decades, with politicians and public figures openly calling for mass killings, and many Jewish Israelis agreeing #israel #gaza https://buff.ly/c6cIQTt

Bij een Israëlische luchtaanval op een school in #Gaza die volgens de autoriteiten dienst doet als schuilplaats voor ontheemden zijn tientallen doden gevallen. Volgens het burgerbeschermingsagentschap van Gaza zijn minstens 25 doden gevallen. Meer dan honderd anderen zouden gewond zijn geraakt.
On April 5, thousands are gathering in Washington D.C. to stand up against the U.S.'s continued support for the genocide in Gaza and the Trump administration's wave of domestic suppression.

Over a month of siege has left people in #Gaza deprived of food, water and medicine, marking the longest period without relief since the war began.
Doctors Without Borders' teams are forced to ration medications and treat wounds without pain relief.
This must end.

Gaza-oorlog Sinds het einde van het staakt-het-vuren heeft #Israël de strijd in #Gaza geïntensiveerd.
De ruim twee miljoen inwoners van Gaza krijgen het ene na het andere bevel van het Israëlische leger om te evacueren. Zo moeten de inwoners van een wijk in Gaza-Stad en van de zuidelijke stad Rafah opnieuw hun huizen verlaten. De meesten komen terecht in Al-Mawasi, een gebied aan de kust dat Israël tot ‘veilige zone’ verklaard heeft – al bombardeert het dit gebied ook.

The United Nations envoy for Syria on Thursday condemned Israel’s intensifying attacks in the country.
Geir Pedersen decried in a statement “the repeated and intensifying military escalations by Israel in Syria, including airstrikes that have reportedly resulted in civilian casualties.”
“Such actions undermine efforts to build a new Syria at peace with itself and the region, and destabilize Syria at a sensitive time.”

The government of PM Viktor Orban had made clear that it would ignore its obligations to act on the I.C.C. warrant.
Instead of arresting Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, Hungary rolled out the "red carpet" and welcomed him with a military honor band at Buda Castle overlooking the Danube River.
A withdrawal would not take effect for at least a year, meaning that Hungary breached its obligations under the 1998 treaty that established the court.
"I am Hani Al-Ayy, from #Gaza, I am 30 years old, married and I am a devoted father to three beautiful daughters. My family is my whole world. Unfortunately I was injuried but I hope to survive. I need surgery, doctors here hardly do urgent and emergency operations, and they require money, a clean environment and the right time so it is better to leave the country for treatment.

Even representatives of the UN bodies like OCHA look and talk like robots. The world knows, that it's a violation of international law and international humanitarian law, but it's not possible for officials to not just express concerns but to demand actions. Their indifference comes across like it's an "ordinary war situation", when it's an overt #genocide.
I have a problem w/this demeanor.

Israeli forces executed handcuffed Palestinian medics before burying them in a mass grave underneath their crushed ambulances in southern Gaza's Rafah.
The fifteen humanitarian workers went missing last week after responding to a distress call from civilians being attacked by Israeli forces.
MEE spoke to Olga Cherevko in Gaza, a Staff member of the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.
