Read this policy brief by our colleague Tasnim Abderrahim to learn more about how North #Africa and #Europe can work together on sub-Saharan #migration.

While attention fixates on the fate of #Hezbollah leader Hassan #Nasrallah, bear in mind that flattening 6+ high-rise apartment buildings, without prior notice/evacuation, means 100s of casualties. This is a mass casualty event, whatever #Hezbollah losses.

أكبر غلطة ارتكبها حزب الله في تاريخه وهي اللي افقدته تعاطف ودعم الأمة هو وقوعهم في الوحل بدعمهم المجرم بشار الأسد ومحاربة شعبه. إحنا للأسف وضعنا سئ جدًا جدًا كأمة إسلامية والجبهة اللي كانت تُعتبر شكل من أشكال الدعم لغزة دلوقتي في وضع لا تُحسد عليه. مُخترقة أمنيًا حتى النخاع، لا

Hassan Nasrallah, the Hezbollah leader killed by Israel, has a mixed legacy; revered by many for standing up to Israel for decades, but loathed by others for fighting the Syrian opposition to Assad's rule. Here’s how his life and death unfolded.

🇹🇳🚨Au large des côtes de Djerba, une embarcation transportant plus d'une quarantaine de migrants a sombré. 29 migrants ont été secourus et 12 corps ont été retrouvés, parmi lesquels 3 nourrissons. Le porte parole de la garde nationale a indiqué que le bateau avait quitté le

📅 This September, ECFR's #MiddleEast & #NorthAfrica programme looked at regional escalation in #Lebanon, Israeli frustration with Netanyahu and migration & economies in the #Maghreb, among others. Have a look at this month's pieces here🧵👇

Pendant ce temps, l’armée israélienne continue de détruire systématiquement les maisons palestiniennes en Cisjordanie. Gaza, Cisjordanie, Liban… Le projet colonial israélien avance dans une passivité internationale sidérante.

MEA is the most badass airline on the planet.

L'Union Européenne🇪🇺 veut racketer le Maroc🇲🇦!!!!! En effet comme l'a très bien mentionné M. Hassan Abkari, DG de Tanger Med, l'UE va imposer une taxe carbone sur chaque conteneurs TEU qui transite par Tanger Med. Elle est de l'ordre de 50€ en moyenne par conteneurs. En

Even as a politics lecturer in a Middle East department, I am lost. Israel has a right to self defence, but Lebanon does not? Israelis have the right to be safe, but Palestinians do not? Iran can’t launch missiles into civilian areas, but Israel can? None of this is coherent.

قررت إسرا.ئيل اليوم في سابقةٍ تاريخية تصنيف الأمين العام للأمم المتحدة أنطونيو غوتيريش شخصاً غير مرغوب فيه وممنوعاً من دخول إسرا.ئيل.. وقبله كان بطرس غالي، الأمينَ العام الوحيد في تاريخ الأمم المتحدة الذي عارضت الولايات المتحدة التمديد له لولاية ثانية بالرغم من موافقة 14 دولة

Hezbollah has organised a media tour in Beirut’s southern suburbs to show journalists the destruction from the last two weeks of Israeli air strikes (it wasn’t possible for most to get access before this). Here’s the first stop. #lebanon 1/

Extraordinary number of ships at #singapore. All bunched up here because of Red Sea disruption to shipping and shifts in way things are being shipped. Fascinating. This is where commerce and geo politics come face to face

This is Beirut now. Just like the West Bank a few hours ago. Just like Gaza every night. This is not “counterterrorism” This is not “self defence” This is colonial violence, done across the Middle East with the support of western governments, and should be called out as such.

Israeli forces sent Jamal, a detainee, to a hospital in Gaza to relay evacuation orders. Snipers then shot him and killed him in front of his mother. When his body was retrieved, the evidence of torture and assault was apparent on Jamal’s body. War crime after war crime.

Absolutely devastating images... We are all mostly focused on Beirut, but the destruction in southern Lebanon is harrowing...

Israeli occupation forces have asked all residents of northern Gaza (300k+) to evacuate as a means of ethnically cleansing North Gaza . However, they then besieged Jabalia refugee camp, and when people tried to leave, they were shot at by snipers. Many residents are on the

It really disturbs me professionally as a researcher of colonialism that I so fell for the idea that the worst of genocidal colonialisms is well behind us that my analytical imagination was and still is is unable to encompass the perpetration and legitimisation of so much evil.
