Put on headphones and please try to listen through this piece We've tried to capture what Palestinians in Gaza hear daily - the constant buzz of Israeli drones punctuated by explosions, gunfire, sirens - and the stress these sounds put on minds and bodies https://t.co/gNNIRYwRnK

As Palestinian journalists were killed, displaced and lost their families, Anas al-Sharif filled a massive gap in reporting from Gaza, especially in it's north. Now Israel has killed him and colleagues as it orders a new attack on Gaza City.

📢 I get asked by people in governments and media all the time: “How do we know if things have gotten REALLY bad in El Fasher?” Look at the images below of swelling graveyards growing exponentially in past few weeks. What more does world need to see to act in Darfur and Sudan?
EL FASHER, DARFUR, SUDAN 🇸🇩: @HRL_YaleSPH finds that a significant number of fatalities have occurred since May 2025, including an unknown number of civilians. HRL confirms that 2 markets, 3 schools, 2 mosques have been bombarded since June 2025. https://t.co/y5gaMRlBm2 🛰️@Maxar

This is the inside, shocking story of a massacre of Sudanese civilians - the most vulnerable population in the world at the time - and why the world let it happen.

Israel has for years calculated the minimum amount of food to let into Gaza without people dying from starvation. So it knows what it's doing when it allows in far less than that amount. https://t.co/qRkNS8vwlB

Israel controls the flow of food into Gaza. It has calculated how many calories Palestinians need to stay alive. Its data shows only a fraction has been allowed in

It is simply remarkable how much the recent pivots to condemning Israel are premised on fabricating a recent watershed, on summoning a new history of events. Hind Rajab was killed a year and a half ago. The ICJ case was filed in 2023.

“My children have become skeletal, skin and bone...even the slightest effort makes them dizzy. They sit down again, asking for food, and I have nothing to give. I can’t lie and say I’ll bring them something when I know I won’t be able to.” https://t.co/fafdPI9o8L

For months Israel kept food shipments to Gaza far below starvation rations. Now the death toll is rising rapidly

“You always know that it could be you who gets shot, or it might be someone next to you.” This is in the minds of Palestinians who see death when they seek aid from the GHF militarised food distribution sites. Still they go because they have no choice https://t.co/IWW75cE1L8

Homeland Security records reveal that officials knew that more than half of the 238 deportees were labeled as having no criminal record in the U.S. and had only violated immigration laws.
