June 2024: A massive demonstration took place in London to support the Palestinian people and condemn the brutal Israeli massacre in the Al-Nusairat refugee camp.

The Israeli military has now rescued a total of 7, & killed 70 of their own hostages. Their kill-to-rescue ratio stands at 10:1. You can only deem this a success if you share the Israeli government’s view that the destruction of Gaza is worth more than the lives of hostages.

Gaza June 2024: Part of the massive destruction in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip has been caused by Israel's massacre and unprecedented bombing.

Did you know that as of August 2017, there were more than 6,000 Palestinian political prisoners held in Israeli jails?

Buried at the end of a long, 3,800-word New York Times article on Israel's secret torture prison are details that Palestinian inmates are being raped.

To continue the Gaza genocide, Israel and the US must destroy the laws of war.

The world's two highest courts have made an implacable enemy of Israel in trying to uphold international law and end Israeli atrocities in Gaza.

Separate announcements last week by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) and the International Criminal Court (ICC) should have forced Israel on to the back foot in Gaza.

A panel of judges at the ICJ – sometimes known as the World Court – demanded last Friday that Israel immediately stop its current offensive on Rafah, in southern Gaza.

Instead, Israel responded by intensifying its atrocities.

On Sunday, it bombed a supposedly "safe zone" crowded with refugee families forced to flee from the rest of Gaza, which has been devastated by Israel’s rampage for the past eight months.

The air strike set fire to an area crammed with tents, killing dozens of Palestinians, many of whom burnt alive. A video shows a man holding aloft a baby beheaded by the Israeli blast.

Hundreds more, many of them women and children, suffered serious injuries, including horrifying burns.

Israel has destroyed almost all of the medical facilities that could treat Rafah's wounded, as well as denying entry to basic medical supplies such as painkillers that could ease their torment... READ MORE https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/gaza-genocide-continue-israel-us-must-destroy-laws-war

	103 Israelis (one, a Bedouin Muslim) are being held prisoner by Palestinians, while 9,000 Palestinians are currently imprisoned by Israel. (View Sources & More Information)

“Since the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territory in 1967, more than 800,000 Palestinians have been detained under Israeli military orders in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt). This number constitutes approximately 20 percent of the total Palestinian population in the oPt and as much as 40 percent of the total male Palestinian population… 8,000 Palestinian children have been arrested since 2000.”
