‘Humanitarian city’ would be concentration camp for Palestinians, says former Israeli PM
The “humanitarian city” Israel’s defence minister has proposed building on the ruins of #Rafah would be a concentration camp, and forcing #Palestinians inside would be #ethnic #cleansing, Israel’s former prime minister - Ehud #Olmert has told the Guardian.
#Israel was already committing #WarCrimes in #Gaza and the #WestBank, Olmert said, and construction of the camp would mark an escalation.
“It is a #ConcentrationCamp. I am sorry,” he said, when asked about the plans laid out by Israel Katz last week. Once inside, Palestinians would not be allowed to leave, except to go to other countries, Katz said.

Rubio said the US was sanctioning Albanese for directly engaging with the #ICC in its efforts to prosecute American or Israeli nationals, accusing her of being unfit for service as a #UN Special Rapporteur.
The sanctions are likely to prevent Albanese from travelling to the US & would block any assets she has in the country.

The #Netherlands & #Germany intelligence agencies have gathered evidence of widespread Russian use of banned #ChemicalWeapons in #Ukraine, including dropping a choking agent from drones to drive soldiers out of trenches to be shot.
"The main conclusion is that we can confirm #Russia is intensifying its use of chemical weapons," Dutch Defence Minister Ruben Brekelmans said Friday.
Israel limits entry of baby formula in Gaza as infants die of hunger
lemonde.fr/en/international/ar…
While waiting to enter Gaza on a medical aid mission, an American doctor watched Israeli security forces confiscate the cans of powdered baby formula packed in his luggage. The vital product is desperately lacking in the Palestinian enclave, where about 50 children have died of hunger since March.

Last month, the #USgovernment pledged $30 million for the group to continue operations — the first known US donation to the group, whose other funding sources remain opaque.
Journalists have been unable to access the
#GazaHumanitarianFoundation [#GHF] sites, located in #IDF controlled zones. The AP cannot independently verify the contractors’ stories.
Other videos include conversation between English-speaking men discussing how to disperse crowds & encouraging each other after bursts of gunfire.
The testimonies from the contractors — combined with the videos, internal reports & text messages obtained by the AP — offer a rare glimpse inside the #GazaHumanitarianFoundation, the newly created, secretive American organization backed by #Israel [& run by a #Trump ally] to feed the #Gaza Strip’s population.
“There are innocent people being hurt. Badly. Needlessly,” the contractor said.
He said American staff on the sites monitor those coming to seek food & document anyone considered “suspicious.” He said they share such information with the #IDF.
Videos provided by one of the contractors & taken at the sites show hundreds of #Palestinians crowded between metal gates, jostling for #aid amid the sound of #bullets, stun #grenades & the sting of #PepperSpray.
The contractors said the security staff hired were often unqualified, unvetted, heavily #armed & seemed to have an open license to do whatever they wished.
They said their colleagues regularly lobbed stun #grenades & #PepperSpray in the direction of the #Palestinians. One contractor said bullets were fired in all directions—in the air, into the ground & at times *toward* the Palestinians, recalling at least 1 instance where he thought someone had been hit.
US contractors *guarding* #aid distribution sites in #Gaza are using #LiveAmmunition & stun #grenades as hungry #Palestinians scramble for food, acc/to accounts & videos obtained by The AP.
2 #US contractors, speaking to the AP on condition of anonymity because they were revealing their employers’ internal ops, said they were coming forward because they were disturbed by what they considered dangerous & irresponsible practices.

Friedrich Merz has such a boner for the murder of Brown people. Poor chap was clearly born a few decades too late to enjoy partaking in his own genocide and must live vicariously through israel’s atrocities.
