Jerry Seinfeld said Palestine doesn’t exist. This was actually the subject of my PhD dissertation. Turns out that Arab, Muslims & Christians have been calling Palestine Palestine continuously for more than a millennium. Receipts: academia.edu/34686627/The_In…

⭕️ REPORT | Israel has killed 987 Palestinians and launched more than 1,450 airstrikes and shelling attacks since agreeing to a “ceasefire” in Gaza last October Israeli forces have carried out at least 3,224 ceasefire violations across Gaza since the Sharm el-Sheikh agreement, according to a report shared by the Palestinian side with mediators and obtained by Drop Site News. 🔸Field Attacks🔸 Wednesday alone saw 12 armed field incidents, including repeated artillery and naval attacks across the Strip: 🔹 Israeli artillery shelled northern Gaza 🔹 Artillery shelling east of Deir al-Balah 🔹 23-year-old Faten Faisal Odeh Al-Arouqi was wounded by Israeli live fire east of Al-Maghazi Camp 🔹 Israeli warships opened fire toward the beaches and coastline of Gaza City in two separate incidents 🔹 Israeli artillery shelled northeastern Gaza City 🔹 Two civilians were wounded by Israeli warship fire west of Al-Nuseirat 🔹 Artillery shelling east of Khan Younis in two separate attacks 🔹 Ahmad Rafiq Al-Batsh was abducted by armed militias operating under the protection of the Israeli army east of Gaza City’s Al-Tuffah neighborhood The UN-backed @BoardOfPeace has not condemned a single attack. Since the “ceasefire” took effect, 987 Palestinians have been killed, including 236 children, 110 women, and 30 elderly people, while 3,109 have been wounded, nearly half of them children, women, or elderly. A total of 95 civilians have also been newly abducted. Israel also continues to hold approximately 34 square kilometers beyond agreed withdrawal lines and has blocked repairs to electricity, water, and sewage infrastructure. Aid and movement restrictions remain severe: 🔸Rafah crossing🔸 ▪️ Only 6,674 of 19,400 planned crossings have been carried out (~34.4%) ▪️ 88 individuals have been turned back at the crossing ▪️ Gaza’s Health Ministry says roughly 20,000 patients are awaiting Israeli approval to leave the Strip for treatment abroad, and that about 10 die each day while waiting. 🔸Aid entry🔸 ▪️ Only ~36.1% of agreed humanitarian aid has entered, averaging about 217 trucks per day compared with the 600 agreed under the ceasefire ▪️ Fuel deliveries remain at just 14.7% of required levels ▪️ The WFP estimates 77% of Gaza’s population faces acute food insecurity, including 100,000 children and 37,000 pregnant women suffering from acute malnutrition, amid what MSF in May 2026 described as a “manufactured malnutrition crisis.” 📸 Central Gaza, Maghazi Refugee Camp tonight (Thursday) after new Israeli air strike.

My latest feature for @WIRED is about long Covid. It focuses on extremely sick patients who believe they recovered, partially or fully, with the help of "mind-body therapies." But it is ALSO about why featuring these patients leads to the kind of reaction you see here:

Satellite imagery shows southern Gaza increasingly reshaped as military control expands entire neighborhoods, farmland, and even cemeteries reportedly erased. This is not just battlefield damageit reflects long-term territorial transformation on the ground. #Gaza #Geopolitics #IR
