Numerous Israeli officials have said they want to force Palestinians out of Gaza. They're making Gaza unlivable before our eyes. When will American politicians + Jewish leaders say no: We will not allow another Nakba on our watch. nytimes.com/2024/01/07/opi…

Hi SkyTeam, just learned from Kenya Airways support that KQ is leaving SkyTeam. What's the effective date of this and when are you announcing this to the public?

Sen. Chris Van Hollen says he heard reports of children now dying of starvation - no longer on the brink, but now actually dying. He says he texted WFP head Cindy McCain, who wrote back: “This is true. We are unable to get in enough food to keep people from the brink.”

This is 7 year old Sidra, the cousin of my wife. The impact of the Israeli missile was so powerful it flung her out, leaving her mutilated body dangling from the ruins of the destroyed building in Rafah 48 hours ago. My wife’s aunt Suzan, her husband Fouzy Hassouna, two of their

Hi KNOMAD team, have a question about the 2021 bilateral remittances data set. I see 0 flows between Tanzania and Kenya, but large volumes between Tanzania and Kiribati. Seems likely to be a coding error. Can you please look into this?

But per Bret Stephens, this is just sadly necessary in the context of urban warfare. And Hamas something something. Except this is in the West Bank. A 12-year-old child.

This is the deputy speaker of the Knesset, Israel’s parliament. Rarely in history has a genocide been so loudly and proudly confessed by its perpetrators. And those who’ve failed to speak out will deserve being damned for eternity by history.

The parallels between the dehumanization and persecution of Jews during the Holocaust, and the ongoing US-backed cataclysm in Gaza, where Palestinians are enduring the Israeli government’s genocide, are too stark to be denied.

Bombing a tent camp full of displaced people is a clear-cut, full-on war crime. Even if Hamas troops were present, that does not absolve the IDF of the obligation to protect civilians. It does not turn a tent camp into a free fire zone.

My friend Yoeal Haille is missing. Last heard from 3pm jana. He was protesting at the World Bank. Was arrested and released at 3pm. At 7pm an almost copy pasted message went to his gf. He didn't come home that day. Phone seems off. WhatsApp single tick. If you’ve seen him, hola!

We’ve found Yoeal. He’s being held at Upperhill and now we’re working on getting him out because he’s being held without charge. #RutoMustGo

More than FOUR months ago, we explained Israel killed at least 200,000 Palestinians but people didn't believe us. An article published in one of the most prestigious scientific journals just gave a conservative estimate of 186,000 Palestinians killed by Israeli *live fire*. 1/

As Palestinian writer Susan Abdulhawa notes, over 500,000 Palestinians have likely been killed by Israel so far, meaning over 20% of the 2.2 million Palestinian inhabitants of Gaza have been wiped out by Israel in this genocide.
