Over one year since the ceasefire agreement, more than 1,400 people have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza, nearly two million still need shelter, not a single hospital is fully functioning, and 1.4 million face crisis-level hunger.
Accountability cannot be swept under the rubble. The recovery and future of Gaza cannot be separated from a framework grounded in international law, justice, and the rights of victims.
The persistent failure to hold Israel accountable and press Israel to comply with the International Court of Justice’s binding orders continues to fuel the atrocity crimes on a mass scale against Palestinians.

הלילה בחברון וברחבי הגדה המערבית, תושבים נשים וילדים הוצאו מביתם.
ככה לא נראית מלחמה למיגור הטרור.
ככה נראה טרור.

Since this morning, I’ve been unable to leave my home. All checkpoints in H2 and exits from Hebron are closed. Israeli forces have begun demolishing homes and shops near the site of the attack.
Residents are living in fear, cut off from basic necessities.
We urgently call on the UN, international governments, and humanitarian organizations to act now: protect civilians, demand an end to unlawful demolitions and collective restrictions, and ensure safe access to essential supplies and emergency services.
Hebron must not be forgotten. We need urgent action, not just statements of concern.

“Gaza’s children are trying to recover their childhoods, to find some routine and stability in their young lives, which for too many have again been cut short. A ceasefire that does not protect children has failed them.” - @UNICEFmena's Edouard Beigbeder

Israeli occupation forces are forcibly evacuating residents from their homes in preparation for demolishing them in the Farsh al-Hawa area of Hebron.
Everyday ethnic cleansing on the West Bank.

At least 419 people have been convicted by Lukashenka for supporting Ukraine—donating, reporting Russian military movements or resisting the war. 142 remain behind bars. Belarusians are paying for their solidarity with freedom.

In Ukraine, tens of millions of Europeans live under daily Russian terror.
In Belarus, 9 million Europeans are held hostage by a dictator.
We are not Europe’s neighbours. We are Europe.
Stand with us. No dictator gets to decide where freedom ends.

Today is Mother’s Day in Belarus.
Viktoryia Damastoi spends it away from her 3 children.
She was sentenced to 4 years in prison in Belarus for online comments and supporting political prisoners💔
Repression affects both political prisoners & their families.

Today marks 20 years since Novaya Gazeta journalist Anna Politkovskaya was murdered in Moscow. She recognized Putin's true nature earlier than most—and the regime could never erase the truth she died to tell.

Glory to the Heroes 🇺🇦
Today, Ukraine marks the Day of Defenders of Ukraine.
They defend the country on the front line, rescue the wounded, evacuate civilians, clear mines, and provide medical care.
Our defenders are men and women who defend the future of Ukraine and all of Europe.
They are the shield of our freedom.

Belarusian artist Aksana Shalyapina, 48, has been diagnosed with cancer in prison.
She used to support political prisoners. Now, for that, she is a political prisoner herself, serving 3 years behind bars.
It is unknown whether she is receiving adequate care 💔
22 September 1939: Nazi Germany and Stalin's USSR held a joint victory parade in Brest following their partition of #Poland. A shameful event in WW2.

We can say whatever we want they will continue glorifying their criminal past.
The real question is why? Who stands behind them, and why do they keep getting away with it despite years of criticism and UEFA sanctions?
Imagine Bayern posting Hitler or Juventus glorifying Mussolini. The reaction would be immediate and massive.
So why are the standards different when it comes to Serbia? Is it their political ties with Russia? Countries like Spain still refusing to recognize Kosova? Or simply the unwillingness of European institutions to confront them properly?
At some point, the question is no longer what Serbia is doing it’s why everyone else keeps letting them do it.

🚨 The electoral reform amendment won't be heard today - it was ruled out of scope.
This is disappointing. But if the government thinks this is the last they'll hear from us, they're badly wrong.
A fair voting system is not a "nice to have." It must be a priority.

Billy Bragg is right. Over and over again, millions of us cast a vote knowing it will likely count for nothing.
It's no wonder so many people are angry, frustrated and disillusioned.
It's no wonder many are giving up on voting and losing hope that things can change for the better.
Proportional Representation is a way to give everyone a fair vote and a fair voice. @billybragg
