Stell dir vor, es ist Krieg, alle gehen hin stehen an für ihre wöchentliche Ration an Trinkwasser, aber der Lastwagen kommt nicht, weil kein Motorenöl nach Gaza reingelassen wird. #EndTheSiege
How do you explain to someone that an entire neighborhood can lose access to drinking water because of a few liters of motor oil? Not because there is no water. Not because there is no desalination plant. But because the machines and trucks that keep life running can no longer operate. Twice a week, a water truck comes to our neighborhood. Families line up with containers and collect enough drinking water to last until the next delivery. Yesterday was one of those days. My father waited with the neighbors from early morning. The truck never arrived. Today, they waited again. Still nothing. By then, many families had already run out of safe drinking water. Later, some of the men went to find out what had happened. The answer was painfully simple. The truck assigned to our area had broken down. It needed motor oil. Motor oil is still not being allowed into Gaza. Three of the station’s five water trucks have now stopped operating. Just days ago, Gaza City’s main desalination plant also reported disruptions because the lubricants needed to keep its machinery running were unavailable. What sounds like a technical problem quickly becomes something else. It becomes thirst. It becomes parents wondering what their children will drink. It becomes families forced to rely on water that is barely suitable for washing, let alone drinking. Today, my family managed to buy enough water. Many others could not. This is how suffering works in Gaza. It rarely arrives all at once. A blocked shipment. A broken truck. A machine that stops working. And suddenly, an entire neighborhood is left without water. That is why it is difficult to hear the word “ceasefire.” Because wars are not measured only by bombs. They are measured by whether people can drink clean water, receive medical care, and live with dignity. If essential supplies are still being blocked, if water systems are slowly collapsing, and if families are still struggling to secure the most basic necessities, then what exactly are we supposed to call this? How many more people must suffer before the world understands that war does not always arrive as an explosion? Sometimes it arrives as an empty water container waiting for a truck that never comes. #WoundedGaza

The Tabbouleh Language School is looking for new students who want to learn Arabic. I've been learning with Ahmed from Nablus, Palestine, and it's Mumtaz (ممتاز)! Link in tweet below.

June 7th, 1982. Prime Minister Begin and Defense Minister Sharon celebrate on the Beaufort Castle a few hours after it was taken by Israeli troops, starting a bloody 18-year quagmire than finally ended with Israel's departure from Lebanon in 2000. 44 years later, the same idiocy in the same place. The only difference will be the names of the dead. Maybe try something new? Just maybe?

Raneen and her father need your help NOW!!!
🚨 Urgent Help Needed 🚨 My disabled father depends entirely on his smole wheelchair, but its wheels are broken and he can no longer move around or manage his basic daily needs. We are living in very difficult circumstances, and I cannot afford to repair or replace it. I am asking for urgent help. My father's suffering grows every day, and any support, no matter how small, can help restore his mobility and dignity. Please don't leave us alone in this difficult time. We truly need your help. 💔🙏 chuffed.org/project/a-father…

Please support if you can. Remote online work is one of the few things Gazans can do. Hanaa deserves a shot at rebuilding her life.
Hanaa from Gaza 🇵🇸 The war has taken everything from us, but I still hold on to hope. I’m trying to raise $2,500 to buy a laptop, return to work, and rebuild my life. Your support could be the beginning of my new story. 🫂💙 👇👇 chuffed.org/project/hanama

This is great work by @aeisraa_ on the Lebanon Casualty Project, which I encourage you to look through. She's got a whole series of visualizations coming as well, so keep your eyes on her space.

Over the next few weeks, I'll be turning the casualty data collected and analyzed by @NicolasSawaya and @MichaelSpagat in a new article published in @AOAV into a series of data visualizations focused on the human cost of the war in Lebanon. This dataset documents at least 8,246 people killed and more than 29,000 wounded in Lebanon between October 2023 and June 2026. One of the most interesting things about it is that it breaks the war into five distinct phases, making it possible to see how the human toll changed over time.

Interesting interview with Daniel Levy about the shift in Israeli society over generations. How Nakba denial shaped 1967 and the Oslo negotiations. About being a dissident from within vs outside and "playing on cracks". This is also about the Jewish future x.com/MiddleEastEye/status/2…

"You got me to talk about things I don't talk about normally." Former Israeli negotiator Daniel Levy on his journey from an Orthodox Zionist upbringing to becoming one of the most prominent voices calling for Palestinian rights. Watch on Real Talk ⤵️ youtu.pulse.ly/qnfslqwc6y

BREAKING - A Swiss Tribunal recognises the legitimate right to peacefully oppose the ongoing genocide in Palestine. One again: justice for Palestine starts at home. It only takes people caring and applying Intl Law. And persevering.
🚨 HISTORIQUE : La justice suisse refuse de criminaliser la solidarité avec la Palestine ! À Genève, le tribunal vient de rendre une décision majeure qui fera date en Europe : 1️⃣Il reconnaît qu’un génocide est en cours. 2️⃣Il juge qu’aucun motif ne justifie de sanctionner des militants pacifiques. 3️⃣Il rappelle que la liberté d’expression protège la désobéissance civile non violente et que réprimer ces mobilisations est incompatible avec la démocratie. Une victoire cruciale : défendre les droits humains n’est pas un crime. 🍉✌🏼
