Civilian injuries in Gaza similar to those of soldiers in war zones, study finds

Colombian President Gustavo Petro hits out at President Donald Trump in his United Nations General Assembly speech, calling for "criminal proceedings" over missile attacks on suspected drug-running boats in Caribbean waters.

Good thread.

NEW Quinnipiac poll of registered U.S. voters: • Half now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza • Only 47% see backing Israel as a U.S. interest, down from 69% in 2023 • 60% oppose more military aid to Israel • 58% favor UN recognition of a Palestinian state www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025...

Canada, UK, France and Australia should also send warships to protect the Global Sumud Flotilla.

Italy and Spain are in NATO. NATO Article 6 says an armed attack in the Mediterranean Sea on the vessels of a NATO party shall be deemed an armed attack on one or more of the parties for purposes of Article 5 & thus shall be considered an attack on all NATO parties. www.reuters.com/world/middle...

"We did not stop the Holocaust. We did not stop the genocide in Rwanda. We did not stop the genocide in Srebrenica. We must stop the genocide in Gaza. There are no excuses anymore. None." - President of Slovenia Natasa Pirc Musar.

“We can’t keep silent, nor look the other way, when confronted with so much devastation, w/the bombing-of hospitals, schools, places of refuge-or w/ so many deaths among the civilian population, or w/ the famine& the forced displacement of 100,000s of people” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Amnesty: The flotilla has already been attacked by drones. Now they're being branded as "terrorists" by the Israeli government. Mathilda explains why she's there, and why breaking the blockade matters.

🚨BREAKING: Last night the Global Sumud Flotilla was attacked by drones - again. British-Palestinian journalist Kieran Andrieu was aboard one of the ships. Despite these attacks the flotilla sails on, because the mission is too important.

Canada, UK, France and Australia should also send warships to protect the Global Sumud Flotilla.

Nearly two years into this holocaust and the images only get more shameful

In a new threat today, Israel’s Foreign Ministry labeled the Global Sumud Flotilla the “Hamas-Sumud flotilla,” criminalizing a civilian aid mission and setting the stage for more violence...

...It ordered ships to dock in “a nearby country” and vowed Gaza’s coast will remain sealed under its “lawful naval blockade” — the illegal siege fueling mass starvation and UN-documented famine.

🚨🇪🇸 Breaking: Spain has dispatched a navy vessel to support the Global Sumud Flotilla heading to Gaza. Speaking from New York, Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said Spain “condemns the genocide” in Gaza and demanded Israel uphold international law and allow Spanish citizens to sail safely in the...

Gustavo Petro, the president of Columbia, addressing the UN one final time, had some choice words for these “United Nations”. And added a not-so-subtle threat as well.

If Trump says this, then hopefully many of the people who listened to him today will understand that this is a racist, cruel, and ultimately self-destructive policy for so many countries that actually benefit from the cultures, values, and labor that immigrants bring.

“And here we are, all these years later, more than a year into yet another genocide. The US and Israel’s unflinching and ongoing televised genocide in Gaza” -Arundghati Roy, PEN Pinter Prize acceptance speech 10/24 canadiandimension.com/articles/vie...

From a world-renowned Palestinian-American academic Edward Said , who was a professor of literature at Columbia University, writer and a political activist.

This is such a perfect reflection of why #KamalaHarris was such a terrible candidate. Even now, she still doesn't get it. People in #Gaza did not need her or #Biden's sympathy. They needed action to stop the genocide, something neither of them even CONSIDERED giving them.

#Gaza is not a warzone – it is a graveyard for humanity’s conscience⚠️ Palestinian children are being starved to death and killed by bombs in their tents. It must stop now. We urgently need international action to protect children & families now. We cannot fail them❤️

It is horrifying how many Americans, including officials within the U.S. government, can witness civilians in Gaza, especially babies, being burned in their tents or torn apart in the streets and shelters by U.S.-made bombs, & yet feel no urgency to stop it. How deeply shameful. How utterly inhumane

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

We are already past all of this:

ABC ordered to pay Antoinette Lattouf another $150,000 for unlawful termination over Gaza Instagram post

@mark-carney.bsky.social Canada must live up to its lofty proclamations of following the ”rules-based system”, international humanitarian law and Genocide Convention and act to stop genocide, illegal occupation and an apartheid regime in Palestinian Territories.

Serious question: is there a single other government on the planet that can murder American children as frequently as Israel does without our politicians & media raising hell about it?!
