Israel’s decision to cut off electricity supply to Gaza desalination plant cruel and unlawful
“Israel must not be allowed to use water as a weapon of war. Fuel, food, shelter and other supplies critical to the survival of the civilian population are a matter of life and death, not a means to exert pressure in negotiations.

I don't want to be a broken record here, but the senate had an opportunity to try to force the GOP to negotiate on stuff like this, and they threw it away instantly, with absolutely no effort to apply leverage at all. because they were afraid the GOP might criticize them.

@magicalgirlsabrina Wut? The same Gwen Stefani who dated her half Indian band mate for nearly a decade and has two other African American bandmates is ..... racist? K.Mastodon
I lost 15 followers for calling Gwen Stefani a racist.
Gwen Stefani, who has claimed to be Japanese (because her dad traveled there a lot) and whose vision for her “Harajuku Girl” era was to “own” four Japanese women. The women were contractually forbidden from speaking or using their own names. She herself has never once gone on the record about AAPI hate.
Yes, that Gwen Stefani is a racist.
I was a huge fan once. I am not trying to melt your Tragic Kingdom CDs by acknowledging this.
And rascist.

BREAKING: Trump halts military aid to Ukraine, media reports
U.S. President Donald Trump has ordered a suspension of all military aid to Ukraine, escalating pressure on President Volodymyr Zelensky mere days after a heated exchange in the Oval Office cast doubt on U.S. support for Kyiv.
A senior Defense Department official told Bloomberg that all U.S. military assistance to Ukraine is on hold until Trump determines that Ukrainian leaders are making a genuine effort toward peace.
The pause affects not only future aid but also weapons already in transit, including shipments on aircraft and ships, as well as equipment awaiting transfer in Poland.
Edit: changed source from Bloomberg to Kyiv Independent b/c there's no paywall and more detail in the story.
