The failure of the UN Security Council, blocked by the US, robustly to condemn and threaten consequences for attacks by Israel on peacekeepers in UNIFIL is another abject moment of the shameless double standards and hypocrisy that are destroying international rules globally.

Tomorrow's front page of The National. We publish a timeline of a year of Israel's bombardment of Gaza. It's all here in black and white - the war crimes, murdered journalists, flattened hospitals, orphaned children. 7567 words, 42,000 deaths. Don't look away.

Interesting article m. When and what is the right way to give up? How can we view “giving up” as a positive thing…as “giving space” to new things to come. newyorker.com/culture/open-q…

Israel has voted to ban Unrwa, the UN's relief agency, from the country, effectively blocking the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza. How much more evidence is needed before the UK Government, and others, act on this genocide?
