The main United Nations agency that aids Palestinians, known as UNRWA, said on Thursday that it had temporarily closed its headquarters in East Jerusalem for the safety of its staff after parts of the compound were set on fire following weeks of attacks.
“This evening, Israeli residents set fire twice to the perimeter of the UNRWA Headquarters in occupied East Jerusalem,” said the leader of the agency, Philippe Lazzarini, on social media.

"Whistleblowers Further Expose Israel's Torture of Detained Palestinians: Barbaric"
Three Israeli whistleblowers gave accounts of the treatment of Palestinians: "doctors have amputated limbs due to handcuffing injuries, allowed detainees' wounds to rot, & carried out vicious beatings."
Palestinian detainees are stripped "of anything that resembles human beings". The harassment & torture are done "out of revenge" for Oct 7.

Shireen Abu Akleh, the highly respected Al Jazeera correspondent, was shot dead by an Israeli soldier two years ago.
To this day, her niece, Lina Abu Akleh says she and her family have been unable to hold anyone accountable, and in the process they’ve witnessed the systematic killing of more journalists by the Israeli military in Gaza.
“The fact that there was no justice for Shireen has paved the way for the systematic targeting of journalists.”

Folks, if your strategy is to vote multiple times (at ~€1/pop) to try and influence the Eurovision Song Contest outcome against Israel: please don’t.
Financially rewarding the EBU will only make them look successful. You don’t buy all the beer at the fascist bar to teach them a lesson.

" #Eurovision viewing parties in #England cancelled over Israel’s participation - High-profile parties including London’s biggest viewing event called off amid ongoing offensive in #Gaza ... Viewing parties in London and Brighton have been called off, while campaigners in Bristol have called for venues continuing with Eurovision events to be picketed.
Crystal, a drag performer who had been due to host a party for 800 people in east London, said they had cancelled the event in protest at Israel’s inclusion, which they said crossed a “red line”.
"I am someone who has my whole life been concerned about #Palestinian solidarity,” Crystal said. “But like many of us I have been more and more energised by what we’ve seen over the last few months.”

I'm a huge fan of the Eurovision Song Contest, but this year I'm boycotting Eurovision.
Eurovision has always been political. Its purpose is political by seeking to unite Europe with the power of love of music over the power of hate and war.
In previous years, I celebrated the overt shows of support for Ukraine, LGBTQIA people, and other oppressed people.
But this year, the organisers of the Eurovision Song Contest have chosen ignore calls for BDS and allowed Israel to enter, and they have chosen to ban other participants from showing even support of the people of Palestine.
If you think the Eurovision Song Contest has chosen an appalling stance on this issue, you're not alone. The Israel singer was booed off stage, and there have been a record number of protests against Eurovision inside the auditorium, outside this year's venue in Malmö, and in many participating countries around the world.

#EBU 2022: "The decision reflects concern that, in light of the unprecedented crisis in Ukraine, the inclusion of a Russian entry in this year’s Contest would bring the competition into disrepute."

Analysis
"Nearly 100% of Campus Gaza Protests Have Been Peaceful"
Of 553 US campus protests, 97% remained non-violent.
Of the 3%, half were from clashes with police sent in to clear peaceful protests.
"If someone is speaking more about 'violent encampments' than they are about violent genocide of the Palestinians, they have a problem reflective of deep and dangerous biases."

US finds Israel’s use of weapons in Gaza ‘inconsistent’ with human rights law, but will not cut flow of arms | Biden administration | The Guardian
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/article/2024/may/10/us-weapons-israel-human-rights-law
"State department also says not enough concrete evidence to link specific US-supplied weapons to violations "
Not enough evidence? FFS!
The report said that conclusion was based in part on the difficulty of collecting reliable information from the #war zone & the way #Hamas operates in densely populated areas. It also stressed that #Israel has begun the process of seeking accountability for possible violations of the #law, a key component in the #UnitedStates assessment about whether to provide #military aid to allies accused of #HumanRights violations.
#LawsOfWar #Gaza #Palestinians #HumanitarianCrisis #MiddleEast #geopolitics
In the admin’s most detailed assessment of #Israel’s conduct in #Gaza, #State said in a written report to #Congress that Israel “has the knowledge, experience & tools to implement best practices for mitigating #civilian harm in its #military operations.”
But it added that “the results on the ground, including high levels of civilian casualties, raise substantial questions” as to whether the #IDF are using them sufficiently.
#LawsOfWar #HumanRights #Law #Palestinians #MiddleEast #geopolitics
The #Biden admin has concluded it is “reasonable to assess” that #Israel’s military campaign in #Gaza has violated #InternationalLaw, but has not found specific instances that would justify the withholding of #military aid, #State Dept told #Congress Fri.

“Major aid organizations know how to run large, well-integrated operational responses to emergencies like #Gaza. However, this is not happening, in part because #Israel is not giving aid groups what they need to do so.”
The former president of Oxfam America looks at why famine relief in Gaza isn’t working, including why the usual UN organizations for delivering aid haven’t stepped up.

A United Nations agency known as UNRWA is the main player in crisis response in Gaza – but Israel will no longer work with UNRWA, and border crossings are not consistent in getting aid through.The Conversation
The bar for hospitals to lose protected status under international law is set very high. Those conditions were not met for any of the 36 hospitals in Gaza that Israel destroyed.

500 Palestinian Bedouins became homeless overnight in Wadi al Khalil in the Negev desert as Israeli forces demolished their homes.
At least 50 homes owned by members of a Bedouin community in the Negev desert were torn down because they were branded as "illegal" by National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir.
Bulldozers razed buildings Wadi al-Khalil, triggering anger and frustration among residents of the village of some 500 people.
