Hamas is a terrorist organization and a dictatorship.
Israel should take much greater precautions to stop killing non-combatants in Gaza.
It should be easy to embrace both of these positions and not just one of them.
If you can't, please rethink.

UPDATE:
"UNICEF has been able to contact only a few of its humanitarian staff in the Gaza Strip.
The situation in Gaza is horrific.
We say it again: We demand an immediate humanitarian ceasefire & safe access.
The killing or captivity of any child is an outrage. It must stop."

Gaza is in complete blackout and isolation while heavy shelling continues. @UNRWA warns about the desperate situation of Gaza people without electricity, food, water. Far too many civilians, including children, have been killed. This is against International Humanitarian Law.

Doctors in Gaza told me they are cleaning wounds with washing up liquid. The WHO says over a third of hospitals have shut, more will close in next 24 hours as generator fuel runs out completely. Gaza's health ministry says healthcare system has collapsed independent.co.uk/news/world…

Russia detains lawyers acting for opposition leader Alexei Navalny. Putin is applying his usual MO of a total scorched earth attack against his enemies. Anyone even remotely associated with him (including his lawyers) are targeted. theguardian.com/world/2023/o…

Every time Russia strikes civilians & breaks international law by targeting civilian infrastructure in Ukraine there needs to be a response. We did that with Starstreak and Storm Shadow. Germany should now send their Taurus missile systems to Ukraine and join the UK and France.

This third European Political Community symbolises Europe’s determination to stand up for Ukraine.
We are united around three principles:
Ukraine needs to prevail in this war.
We will determine the future security architecture of Europe.
And never accept the right of might.

Kharkiv region. Another insidious Russian attack that had no military logic. A strike on a cafe and a grocery store. About 50 dead, including children.
Social networks will hide these images and call it "sensitive content". The leadership of "X" will probably limit the reach.
But this is a reminder to anyone who is willing to smile and shake hands with war criminal Putin at international conferences.
A reminder to all those who are willing to post memes and mock Ukrainians.
A reminder to all those who want to sell something to Russia and return to bloody business as usual.
Putin's Russia is a true evil, and this is not just a metaphor or a figure of speech.
We have to defeat it. Together.
The whole civilized world.

Russia: We’ll rape, torture, & kill Ukrainians as long as the world lets us. While #Ukraine waits for Western aid we’ll reinforce our defenses & bomb as many civilians as we can.
@Bundeskanzler Scholz: The Kremlin doesn’t want 🇩🇪 to send 🇺🇦 #Taurus missiles? I better not then.

No, @elonmusk. Ukraine aid is the ultimate investment!

If we disarm Ukraine, Putin will not stop killing Ukrainians. The idea that disarmament = peace is just pure fantasy. Instead, the war will get bigger and go longer. Putin will be even more emboldened to expand his war aims if his enemy is weaker.

Arrived in Granada for European Political Community summit.
We're here to devise Europe's course of action.
For peace, stability & security, we must stick together. If not, others will gain influence.
It's the only way forward for a resilient, prosperous & geostrategic Europe.

“It is an erasure of a people. The world handed us over”. Almost all ethnic Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh have left in just a few days. This escaped the world largely unnoticed but ends a 3-decade fight for independence that 1000s have died for:

I welcome congressional action tonight to avert an unnecessary and destructive government shutdown, but I also urge Congress to live up to America’s commitment to provide urgently-needed assistance to the people of Ukraine.

Eighty-two years ago, Nazis murdered 34,000 Jews at Babyn Yar. Soviets buried this history, which today Putin's government manipulates to provide cover for Russia's abuses in Ukraine. The U.S. is committed to justice for Holocaust survivors and accountability for atrocities.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Soviet prisoners of war (POWs) were among the people who were massacred at Babyn Yar. The Soviets liberated Babyn Yar and Kiev in 1943. The Soviets held a trial in 1946 in Kiev for 15 German policemen involved in the Babyn Yar massacres.

It was a very long and difficult night for Odesa as Russia attacked it with Kalibr and Oniks missiles and Shahed drones.
Our kids suffer so much. Listen to this boy.

Russian soldiers raped women aged 19 to 83 in Kherson region, placing relatives nearby so they could hear the screams, UN Commission says.
According to the head of the independent international commission of inquiry into violations in Ukraine, Erik Møse, in some cases torture was used with such cruelty that it led to the victim's death.
"The team has gathered evidence that indicates that the use of torture by the Russian military was widespread and systematic," Mr. Møse emphasized.
Imagine what the people who are still living under Russian occupation are going through.

Australia thinks Russia's veto power in the UN Security Council should be restricted.
Foreign Minister Penny Wong said more need to be expected from permanents members of the SC and added:
"Russia is mocking the UN every day it continues its illegal invasion of Ukraine"
