If any of you read the #Narnia books as children, do you remember a scene in "Prince Caspian" when Aslan is returning to Narnia and they come to the Bridge (formerly Ford) of Beruna where a river god calls out "Hail, Lord, Loose my chains". Something like that really happened for the Klamath River in Oregon! Check out the latest Planet Snapshots medium.com/@planetsnapshots/is… #PlanetScope #Klamath #DamRemoval

The #UNRWA flag on the school made it a target instead of protecting it from Israeli bombardment.

“From the beginning of this genocide … [UNRWA] has been a target by the Israeli government for what it represents.”

“UNRWA represents … the right of return for the Palestinians refugees who were kicked out of their homes in 1948. So UNRWA represents a cause – a right of return for refugees – and this is what Israel has been trying to eliminate.”

Ibrahim Fraihat

Israeli raids destroyed water supply for 35,000 Palestinians in #Jenin

45 homes were left “completely uninhabitable” by Israeli forces, displacing 297 people, including 102 children.

Israeli bulldozers and heavy machinery tore up approximately 25 kilometres of roads, around 70 percent of all the city’s roads.

The destruction of the roads also damaged underlying water and sewage pipes, leaving approximately 35,000 residents without a #water supply since August 28.

Israeli forces killed at least five Palestinians in the occupied West Bank city of Tubas on Wednesday, as it continued mass raids across the territory, including by detaining emergency service workers.

The five men were killed in an Israeli air strike at dawn near al-Tawhid mosque in Tubas.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said it received the bodies after Israeli authorities initially prevented ambulances from reaching the site.

Petition for a decent and humane Disability Benefit in Canada
From deeply unreasonable eligibility requirements to a measly maximum of just $6 a day – the Canadian government’s current proposals for the CDB fall short of their promise to lift millions out of poverty.

Meanwhile in Burma
The situation in Khin-U Township has spiraled into a crisis of unimaginable proportions. For four consecutive days, the military junta has unleashed a campaign of terror, systematically setting fire to villages and leaving devastation in its wake. Since September 2, eight villages in the northern part of Khin-U have been torched, displacing thousands and obliterating entire communities.

She was there to prevent militant settlers attacking and burning Palestinian homes and agriculture. She was shot in the head by Israeli soldiers protecting the settlers


Turkish American peace activist was murdered in cold blood by IDF with a shot on the head.

Do not expect Biden, Blinken or WH press secretary calling her an American hero and her murderers for barbarians and calling for sanctions of IDF for their criminal actions in occupied West Bank.

Not all Americans are treated equally. She didn't go there to kill Palestinian children. So her death will not be called "heroic" and the murderers to be held accountable.

On Tuesday Rafat and Nurs Abu Al-Kian, #Arab residents of the Negev with #Israel citizenship, made their way from their home to #Jerusalem, Dekal, Highway 60. Near the village of Khirbat Karma, soldiers stopped them and ordered them to get out of their vehicle while holding weapons to their heads, after which they were brutally beaten.
