Israeli military medics are training on dead Americans. And it’s all happening thanks to a little-known connection between two U.S. universities and the Navy.
@Dena reports in collaboration with the student journalists who broke the story about the body donor program.

@RutgersU canceled a graduation speaker because of his views on Palestinian rights. That’s unconstitutional. CCR has sent a letter to Rutgers demanding they reinstate Rami Elghandour as the 2026 School of Engineering convocation speaker.

Do better @RutgersU. Thousands of your students and faculty want to hear @RamiElghandour speak. You are disrespecting all of us when you cancel him bc “~5 students” complained. What about the 1000s of students who deserve to be represented?

I know @RamiElghandour. Rutgers picked the wrong guy to cancel.
NEW: Months ago, Rami Elghandour (biotech CEO & "The Voice of Hind Rajab" EP) was invited to give a Rutgers grad speech.
It's now canceled. Because some students complained about his posts.
He takes us inside the cancelation in his first video interview:youtube.com/watch?v=CJryezSc…

This is part of a larger trend of governments - including the Trump administration - trying to censor journalists reporting on the realities of this war.
Ahmed Shihab-Eldin must be released immediately.

With the world’s attention on Iran, Israelis are waging unprecedented violence against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.
“This is the worst I have seen,” Palestinian journalist @MariamBarghouti tells @Dena.
