ALT Woman with light brown hair sits on a mattress on a floor with an infant in her arms. The infant is swaddled in a blanket. In the background there are people sitting and lying in various poses. The scene depicts the woman and infant in the foreground with others behind them. They look worried. This building is a public space like a hall or a school and the people are here because an emergency has forced them to flee their homes.

Today, a Taliban court sentenced a woman to be stoned to death in Balkh province. Yesterday, a Talib leader laughed when a journalist asked when girls would return to school.
The world is increasingly complicit in the systematic erasure of Afghan women.

"Israel is killing us like it's the first day. Please, I'm asking you, keep talking like it's the first day."
Deeply affected and humbled by the discussion with @azaizamotaz9 in @TheMACBelfast yesterday evening. Every word he said is a punch to the gut.
It is the 11th month of the genocide. We cannot become jaded, or complacent or despondent. We have to keep battling, as if was the first day, for the killing to stop, for justice for Gaza and a free Palestine.

Hind Rajab’s death has already been forgotten. That’s exactly what Israel wants | Owen Jones theguardian.com/commentisfre…

For 200 days now, I’ve pressed the US on the killing of Hind Rajab, her family & medics sent to save her.
Outside investigation—“not plausible” Israeli forces didn’t see who they shot 335 bullets at.
Over & over, US deferred to Israel to investigate itself:

Exactly, like what happened with me when I collected body parts of my son..
He collected body parts of his brother and held them in this piece of cloth..

Most in the media have forgotten about, and moved on from, the horrific killing of little Hind in Gaza.
Not Zeteo.

“There was a female officer who gave us a briefing on the day we arrived. She said, 'It will be hard for you. You'll want to pity them, but it's forbidden. Remember that they aren't people. From your point of view, they are not human beings.”
A number of soldiers and medical professionals who served at Sde Teiman agreed to talk with Haaretz about their time there.
Eight of the testimonies follow, anonymously and in chronological order, from the earliest stint to the most recent

This is an astonishing resignation letter from Mark Smith of the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office.
We wait with bated breath for this extremely serious matter to be covered by all of the mainstream media & for government ministers to be rigorously questioned.

As part of our market study, we’ve identified significant concerns in the #InfantFormula market.
To address these, we’re continuing our study and will soon develop possible recommendations to governments to improve market outcomes.

I wonder what the purpose of an old man is?
Any ideas?

Why the misleading headline @JSimpsonjourno? @CMAgovUK said: ‘the combined effect of the current regulatory framework, the behaviour of manufacturers & suppliers & the needs & reactions of people buying formula, are resulting in poor market outcomes’.

If I had to carry my family members in a plastic bag after being bombed to bits I would want to burn the whole world down. I cannot believe what we are witnessing everyday. You think you've seen the worst and then more comes.

How many more children will be killed in Gaza or undergo indescribable suffering before the nightmare ends?
Heartbreaking to hear that newborn twins and their mother were among the latest casualties.
It's past time for a ceasefire, and the unconditional release of hostages.
Clare Patton retweeted
Please understand the times we are living in right now. Whole institutions are doing the bidding of Israel’s genocidiares. From the arts, to the banks, to our universities to our newsrooms, all are complicit.

‘A doctor was forced by the IDF to strip naked and stay naked and urinate and defecate on the floor underneath him. After 2 days in this state he was allowed to treat the patients in the hospital he had refused to leave. While still naked. The patients were children’
Israeli soldiers are rapists and paedophiles. These rapists and paedophiles are supplied by the United States.
