The power of nonviolence in the face of a violent state is being demonstrated perfectly by the Global Sumud Flotilla. Israel has a dilemma: continue to attack over 50 peaceful boats from 45 countries, or let them through to deliver aid to Gaza.

‼️ BBC MANCHESTER OCCUPIED This morning, Youth Demand supporters occupied the lobby of the BBC office in Manchester. Others stood outside with banners chanting. The BBC is complicit in genocide. Palestinians are being starved and murdered, while the BBC fail to report on Israel's war crimes.

Banning the war criminals means nothing if you still allow their weapons companies to attend. Ban the war crime convention now. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

On Saturday, Youth Demand supporters joined 1000 others in Parliament Square with @defendourjuries.bsky.social. Over 500 people were arrested under the Terrorism Act for sitting down and holding signs reading "I oppose genocide, I support Palestine Action".

Israel has announced plans to take over Gaza City. Germany responded by stopping the export of any military equipment that could be used in the Gaza Strip. When will Starmer follow suit? The UK government must implement an immediate trade embargo on Israel.

Shooting can be heard lasting for several minutes as the person filming says prayers. "Forgive me mum, I just wanted to help people. I wanted to save lives". He is understood to be one of the dead paramedics. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Israel — on trial for genocide at the ICJ, with leaders under ICC arrest warrants — bans journalists from Gaza to hide its genocide with lies & hasbara. The evidence of war crimes is overwhelming — yet the UK government still refuses to implement a full arms embargo & sanctions.

Video discovered on the mobile phone of one of the victims reveals the details of an Israeli attack that killed 15 medics, including eight from the Palestinian Red Crescent in Gaza. Read more: aje.io/6xwedh
