There is "growing evidence" journalists in Gaza have been "targeted and killed by the Israeli army on the basis of unsubstantiated claims that they were Hamas terrorists" according to Irene Khan, UN special rapporteur on freedom of expression.

Listen to a top UN official describe the horrific humanitarian disaster in Gaza right now: "I can tell you from having visited...death on this scale has a sound and a smell that does not leave you." History will never forget that we enabled this atrocity.

Two million people trapped with no access to aid or assistance. Tens of thousands of dead people. The wounded. Orphans. This is the reality in Gaza today.

This…And we need a reform of the continuing health care system (CHC) and the often arbitrary distinction between healthcare and social care in the context of dementia.
Around one million people are living with #DementiaBehindClosedDoors. We can change that when we act as one, loudly telling our stories to make people in power understand why dementia must be a priority. 1/3

More than 41,800 people have been killed in a year of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. The health ministry in Gaza has confirmed the identities of more than 34,000 of them. Here are their names.

Over 100 people killed, mostly women and children. At a school. Massacred. How is there no arms embargo on Israel? How do the people who express horror and revulsion when Putin and Assad do this sit silently by as Netanyahu does it? Don’t look away:
This is the only image I can bear to share from the massacre at Tabeen school in Gaza City. The scattered bodies and burned corpses are covered, but this glimpse barely scratches the surface of the true horror that unfolded.

The equivalence, back in the day, would be the RAF bombing a school full of chlidren in West Belfast, with the Government claiming that it was being used by the IRA. Why is Israel being allowed to get away with this? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8er…

Over the coming days, parties will be releasing their manifestos laying out what they will do if they form the next UK Government. We've been clear on what we're asking for, and we're calling on the parties to listen. Read more about our calls here: alzheimers.org.uk/about-us/p…

President Biden's call for an immediate ceasefire is welcome. But actions are what matter for civilians facing death and starvation. The US must use all available leverage to achieve a ceasefire, the release of hostages, and the immediate expansion of aid crossings by land.

Yes. For our politicians, not speaking out - given what’s been happening in Gaza and West Bank - is complicit. ā€œThere comes a time when silence is betrayalā€ (MLK)…
The great Gideon Levy speaks out in a way that Western politicians, safe in their own homes, have simply refused to do. haaretz.com/opinion/2023-12-…

Agree…shocking!
A shameful moment. Only matched by the UK vote in 1980 -- on the instructions of the US -- to continue recognising the Khmer Rouge as the legitimate government of Cambodia after they had been removed from power by Vietnam.
