West Bank village Khalet al-Daba'a was crushed by Israeli bulldozers in May. Palestinians tell me they are losing hope. This is the story of Israeli attempts to dismantle the Masafer Yatta community + why things are "worse, more dangerous, than ever"👇 independent.co.uk/news/world/mid…

Big news about a new party led by Zarah Sultana and Jeremy Corbyn, but with Zack Polanski likely to take over the Greens will this actually end well for the left? I'm not so sure
