No Cold War Statement on the War Without End “These wars appear to be without end. But they will end. The human spirit is far too strong to be vanquished by tormenters. It uses every avenue, as you should, to refuse a world in which this history of war without end determines our future.” Read the full No Cold War statement here: nocoldwar.org/news/no-cold-w…

Urgent: Protest against the US war on Iran Trump says US will hit Iran 'very hard' tonight and threatens to take Kharg Island. In a post on Truth Social, he also vows to "assume total control" of Iran's oil and gas markets and to take Kharg Island. #EndTheWarOnIran bbc.co.uk/news/live/cly7nr3j…

🇲🇽 Mexican President Sheinbaum is "against the American-Israeli war axis." "Whoever calls the killing of children self-defense is an agent of genocide... and whoever remains silent about it is an accomplice in the blood." More countries should publicly oppose the US-Israeli wars on Iran, Lebanon and Palestine! #IranWar‌ #Lebanon #Palestine
🚨Mexican President Sheinbaum shatters the wall of silence: 'I am against the American-Israeli war axis. Bombing schools full of girls is not self-defense; it is a full-fledged war crime.' 🇲🇽💀 'Whoever calls the killing of children self-defense is an agent of genocide... and whoever remains silent about it is an accomplice in the blood.' 🔥🇵🇸"
Community note
Sheinbaum never said the quotes the post contains. This is a video from March 2, 2026. In it she is calling for multilaterism and diplomatic solutions for conflicts, reiterating that the people who suffer in war are always regular civilians, like the children killed in Minab youtube.com/live/GrbK5hyRk…

To enforce its blockade of the Gulf the US has 'disabled' 8 vessels since 14 April. In this latest US attack on ships, on 9 June, 3 Indian seafarers have been killed. The US blockade, along with its unwillingness to negotiate a real ceasefire, is the root cause of the damage being inflicted on the international economy. The price of oil is approximately 50% above its level prior to the US launching its war on Iran, and at present that price is rising again. #EndWarOnIran #EndTheUSBlockade
🔴 New: 3 Indian Seafarers Killed in U.S. Strike on Oil Tanker Off Oman Three Indian seafarers were killed in a U.S. military strike on the Palau-flagged oil tanker MT Settebello in the Gulf of Oman, India’s shipping minister Sarbananda Sonowal confirmed. The three were initially reported missing before their bodies were recovered; 21 of the 24 Indian crew were rescued. CENTCOM said a U.S. aircraft fired precision munitions into the ship’s engine room late June 9 after the crew “repeatedly failed to comply” with American instructions, claiming the tanker was carrying Iranian oil in violation of its blockade. CENTCOM said it has similarly disabled eight vessels since the U.S. blockade began April 13. India condemned the strike and summoned the U.S. chargé d’affaires in New Delhi. The IMO called it the 43rd attack on shipping in or around the Strait of Hormuz since February 28.

The US struck civilian water infrastructure in South Iran - which is a war crime under the Geneva Conventions. The US is not 'defending' itself, it is just continuing its war on Iran. #EndWarOnIran
The US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) says it carried out “self-defence strikes” against Iran in response to what it said was the downing by Iranian forces of a US attack helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz on Monday. 🔴 Follow our LIVE coverage: aje.news/xt6tl6

In recent weeks, organizations across the world have personally delivered solidarity letters to Cuban embassies. From Pakistan to Benin to Australia, workers’ parties, youth organizations, and movement leaders are condemning the escalating US aggression on the island. #CubaNoEstáSola
🇨🇺 As Trump intensifies sanctions and openly threatens to take over Cuba, the world is showing that Cuba is not alone!  In recent weeks, organizations across the world have personally delivered solidarity letters to Cuban embassies. From Pakistan to Benin to Australia, workers’ parties, youth organizations, and movement leaders are condemning the escalating US aggression on the island. We stand with them in the global call to defend Cuba’s sovereignty, dignity, and socialist project. 📣 Protest US aggressions at US embassies, consulates and public places and stand in solidarity with the Cuban people. Cuba has stood with the peoples of the Global South for generations: hosting the Tricontinental Conference, sending doctors after earthquakes and pandemics, training working-class students through free medical education, and proving that another world is possible even under siege.  The struggle for Cuba is inseparable from the struggle against imperialism everywhere. SOLIDARITY WITH CUBA @tri_continental  #HandsOffCuba #LetCubaLive #EndTheEmbargo #CubaNoEstaSola #InternationalSolidarity

The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Volker Türk has warned that the expansion of sanctions imposed by the US against Cuba is causing widespread harm to the population and endangering lives. US sanctions against Cuba are endangering lives and must be lifted! #CubaNoEstáSola
The expansion of US sanctions against Cuba is hurting ordinary people and endangering lives. It is unacceptable that children are dying for lack of essential medical supplies. These sanctions must be lifted immediately. ohchr.org/en/press-releases/…

Cuba defends its right to sovereignty and offers the world compassion and generosity. The US demands the submission of other countries and imposes wars in pursuit of its domination. Cuba represents hope for humanity! Step up solidarity with Cuba Now! #CubaNoEstáSola
♥️🇨🇺 This image represents the countries that have received medical cooperation or international solidarity from Cuba. More than 160 countries. Keep in mind that Cuba is a developing country, almost 70 years under the U.S. blockade. Cuba represents hope for the people of the 🌎

Gideon Levy's assessment (in Haaretz) of the situation in Gaza: "Now that the genocide has run its course and the Strip has been destroyed almost completely, Israel is advancing confidently toward the next phase of the plan: making the entire population of Gaza permanently disabled, injured, sick, hungry, homeless and unemployed." "Once Gaza's population is reduced to a disparate mass without an organized society, without basic services, essential institutions and, of course, without leadership, the complete disintegration of the social fabric will make it easier for Israel to move to the next phase, which it has never relinquished, the phase of expulsion." "Israel doesn't want any organization to govern in Gaza. It wants 2 million people in tents. It will make their expulsion easier." Israel, backed by the US and its allies, is continuing its genocidal assaults on the Palestinians. It is vital everywhere to support the movements in solidarity with Palestine! #Palestine #OpposeGenocide archive.ph/bd9kL#selection-9…

Cuba at present: No electricity US starving millions of people Food rotting Water pumps stopped working This is a crime against humanity. US military action against Cuba is illegal and unacceptable. Step Up Solidarity With Cuba Now! #CubaNoEstáSola
This’s Cuba and there’s no electricity. This's a hospital running on bare minimum power in Cuba. The U.S is starving millions of people in Cuba. The U.S. is laying siege cruelly cut off all fuel and humanitarian aid, power is out, leaving hospitals without electricity. Dialysis patients, babies in NICU, and others will die. Food is rotting. Water pumps stopped working. Systems are breaking down, strangled by the US fuel chokehold. This's a criminal act of collective punishment, it's a blatant violation of international law, This’s a crime against humanity. We should be speaking out loudly in the international community: U.S. military action against Cuba is illegal and unacceptable. Put an end to U.S. impunity before it takes another sovereign country into chaos.

Trump's war on Iran, most importantly, is severely impacting the lives of people in Iran. The war is also harming the international economy and depriving people of essential supplies, particularly in the Global South. The effects are less severe in the Global North, but living standards are being hit. In Britain there is increasing understanding that price rises are due to this war. These are recent front pages from 2 British newspapers: the Independent which is a centre right neo-liberal paper; and the Morning Star which is a left wing working class paper. It is vital to end Trump's war on Iran. #HandsOffIran

Congress Representatives Nydia Velazquez & Gregory Meeks have introduced a War Powers Resolution to stop Trump from pursuing military action against Cuba that has not been authorized by Congress. Congresswoman Velázquez has pointed out that Trump's belligerence against Cuba is to distract attention from his lack of progress in his war on Iran & the US's weakening economy. Congressman Meeks is calling for a new relationship with the Cuban people, with an end to the oil blockade. Oppose Trump's war-drive against Cuba! Lift the blockade! #CubaSeDefiende
Trump is marching us toward another unauthorized war, this time in Cuba. Congress must reassert its constitutional authority if the President continues on this illegal path. Today, @RepGregoryMeeks & I introduced a War Powers Resolution to stop this conflict. No war with Cuba.

Ukraine is preparing for years more war against Russia. In conjunction, European NATO states are stepping up their war preparations against Russia and vastly increasing their military spending. The US's European allies are preparing for prolonged military action against Russia. If European states increasingly pursue the US policy of provoking conflict with Russia, they are risking disaster. It is in Europe's interest to end the provocations and halt the war-drive. #StopReArmEurope #EndTheWarDriveAgainstRussia
“Zelensky has ordered preparations for another two or three years of war” (The Economist). So, the blood-soaked comedian has decided to sacrifice tens (?) of thousands more Ukrainian working-class lives in exchange for power, money and endless standing ovations from the West. In 2019, Zelensky told Poroshenko: “I am your sentence.” It turned out he became a sentence for the entire Ukrainian nation. And that is how history will remember him.

This Politico article states: "The Pentagon has spent months positioning the troops and weapons needed for the U.S. to launch a military attack on Cuba — all it needs is a final go-ahead from Donald Trump." "These strategically placed assets set the table for military action, from a capture of Havana’s leadership much like the seizure of former Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, to a series of precision strikes." The threats of US military action against Cuba are increasing. Oppose Trump's war preparations against Cuba! Step up solidarity with Cuba! #CubaNoSeRinde

The US continues to make military attacks on Iran, claiming it is acting in 'self-defense'. The message being sent to Iran is: Agree to Trump's demands! - If not the US will dramatically escalate its military action. #HandsOffIran
The US started a war of aggression against Iran. Tehran retaliated in self-defense. But now the US is bombing Iran again, and claiming to act in "self-defense", after it started the war in the first place! Aggressors cannot act in self-defense, by definition.

🚨 Trump and the US government are preparing to start another war. This time against the Cuban people. Trump claims that Cuba poses a threat to US and regional security yet we know that this is false and part of a campaign to manufacture consent for an unprovoked war.  At the same time, the US is increasing its military presence around Cuba. US aggressions are unjustified and are part of an imperialist campaign to reconquer Latin America and the Caribbean as part of the Trump Corollary of the Monroe Doctrine.  📣The IPA calls on anti-imperialist and people’s organizations world wide to take action to protest US aggressions at US embassies, consulates and public places and stand in solidarity with the Cuban people. May 29 - June 2!

Cuba is the victim of US-organised & backed terrorism, which has killed many Cubans. To defend its people, Cuba had to combat this terrorism. The indictment of Raul Castro is simply the US creating a pretext to justify military action against Cuba. This 2020 film sheds light on Cuba's fight against terrorism, including the incident involving the shooting down of planes from the US. #CubaEstáFirme #Cuba
📽️🇨🇺We invite you to watch the documentary “Castro's Spies”, a 2020 film directed by Irish filmmakers Ollie Aslin and Gary Lennon, which sheds light on the fight against terrorism in Cuba, including the incident involving the shooting down of “Brothers to the Rescue” planes. Cuba is not a state sponsor of terrorism; it has been a victim of this scourge on humanity. Watch more👉🏻youtube.com/watch?v=qiT-WM2M…
