He argued that, despite widespread public opposition to Israel’s actions in Gaza and strong support for an arms embargo, the British government continues to prioritise geopolitical alliances over legal and moral obligations.

Sie befindet sich in der Mitte des Bildes und schaut direkt auf den Betrachter zu. Die Wasseroberfläche ist mit kleinen, grünen Algenflecken bedeckt, die den größten Teil des Bildes einnehmen. Einige Blätter und andere kleine Objekte sind auf der Wasseroberfläche verteilt. Die Ente scheint ruhig zu sein und sich in ihrem natürlichen Lebensraum zu befinden.

Around 80,000 people gathered outside Parliament on Saturday, demanding an end to UK arms sales to Israel amid warnings of mass starvation in Gaza.
The protest followed UN reports that one in three Palestinians in Gaza can’t access a single meal, and that over 875 people have been killed near aid points. Israeli soldiers told Haaretz they were ordered to fire on civilians queuing for food.
The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal and Aaron Mate discuss the formation of the Hague Group, a convention of mostly non-aligned nations dedicated to holding Israel accountable for ghastly violations of international law.
Max questions whether the two most powerful members of the group, China and Turkey, will now cease their economic and diplomatic cooperation with Israel.

The image depicts a panoramic view of a natural landscape under a clear blue sky. In the foreground, there is a wooden path with a black dog walking along it, surrounded by green vegetation, including shrubs and small trees. The path leads towards a gently rolling hill in the midground, which is covered with a mix of green grass and patches of snow. The background features a larger mountain with a green slope and some snow patches, indicating a cooler climate or higher altitude. The overall scene is serene and showcases a typical landscape found in northern regions, possibly in a national park or protected area.

Nearly 1,000 Palestinians have been killed while trying to reach food and water, as Israeli forces open fire at aid sites and push civilians toward Rafah.
The area, intended to be a ‘humanitarian zone,’ is overwhelmed by severe hunger, overcrowding, and ongoing airstrikes.
Shadia Edwards Dashti has the story.
Genocide expert Omer Bartov is called Israel's war on Gaza an official genocide.
A month after the Hamas attack on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, I believed there was evidence that the Israeli military had committed war crimes and potentially crimes against humanity in its counterattack on Gaza. But contrary to the cries of Israel’s fiercest critics, the evidence did not seem to me to rise to the crime of genocide.
