Israel Escalates West Bank Military Assault, Invading Areas Across the North (Mariam Barghouti | Drop Site News, 2025-01-31)

“Israel’s defense minister says troops will remain in Jenin refugee camp indefinitely”

“Barely 48 hours after the ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza came into effect on January 19, Israel announced “Operation Iron Wall,” a large-scale military operation to ‘defeat terrorism in Jenin.’

“What began in the #Jenin refugee camp has expanded to #Tulkarem, #Tubas, #Qalqilya, #Nablus, and #Jericho…”

“A day before the latest Israeli invasion, Palestinian Authority security forces had concluded their own large-scale offensive on the camp dubbed Operation Home, one of the longest and most lethal assaults by Palestinian security forces in recent memory…”

A film by Antony Loewenstein (a Jewish-Australian journalist and author)

“… what makes Israel's industry unique is the mix of weapons, surveillance technology and architectural techniques that combine to create a comprehensive system for controlling 'difficult' populations and are based on years of experience in Palestine."

Crips for eSIMs for Gaza: A Lunar New Year Update

“Our work is not over. Gazans are returning to a devastated land. Entire neighborhoods are rubble on rubble. Local cell towers will take months to repair, meaning people will continue to rely on eSIMs for wifi and service…”

“The genocide in Gaza is far from over, it has – as Bisan Owda and many others point out – simply slowed down. Until the local Internet infrastructure is safely restored, we will keep our eSIMs active and send new ones when we have the funds to do so.

“As Palestinian writer Jehad Abusalim observes, ‘The real fight…doesn’t end with a ceasefire.’ It will take years to rebuild Gaza. Now is not the time to abandon the struggle or waver in our solidarity.”

Israel's Bombs May Have Stopped, But the Genocide Is Not Over (Zeteo, 2025-01-30)

https://zeteo.com/p/israel-bombs-gaza-stop-genocide-not-over-unrwa
———

“Yes, Israel’s bombs have stopped, but the genocide is not over. With a destroyed and collapsed healthcare system, we will continue to see more Palestinians die, as they are unable to get the treatment necessary to be able to survive the devastation that Israel (with no US bombs and help, of course) meted out against them.”

“… Israeli leaders made it clear throughout their bombing campaign that they intended to make Gaza unlivable…”

Israeli soldiers are risking jail by refusing to fight in Gaza | The Independent (2025-01-15)

https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/israel-soldiers-idf-gaza-war-b2679934.html

“… a growing number of Israeli soldiers speaking out against the 15-month conflict and refusing to serve anymore, saying they saw or did things that crossed ethical lines. While the movement is small — some 200 soldiers signed a letter saying they’d stop fighting if the government didn't secure a ceasefire — soldiers say it’s the tip of the iceberg and they want others to come forward.”

“Seven soldiers who've refused to continue fighting in Gaza spoke with AP, describing how Palestinians were indiscriminately killed and houses destroyed…”

So last summer al-Jazeera reported that Israel used the Hannibal directive. Since then the news has not been much followed up, or am I missing something? Are investigations about this ongoing? Did ICJ mention it? Curious to know what you think about why it seems to have not caused the attention it should have.

In the West Bank, Palestinian unemployment is now Israeli policy (+972 Magazine, 2025-01-21)

https://www.972mag.com/west-bank-unemployment-permits-israel/
———

“Ever since the beginning of Israel’s assault on Gaza in October 2023, Palestinians in the occupied West Bank have been suffering from an acute unemployment crisis. In the first six months of the war, the unemployment rate nearly tripled, with over 300,000 workers losing their main source of income.”

“Historically, our community subsisted on shepherding and agricultural farming. But over the years, the expansion of the Jewish settlement … and violence from Israeli settlers and soldiers have rendered the vast majority of our land inaccessible. Forced to find alternative sources of income, many young men in the community began working as laborers inside Israel…”

https://x.com/CraigMokhiber/status/1883925720868761701

"Today the UN has shamed itself, violated its human rights mission, & dishonored the memory of millions of victims of the Holocaust. In an event that was supposed to commemorate the genocide of European Jews & the principle of “never again”, it honored & platformed a perpetrator of genocide, Isaac Herzog, president of the Israeli regime, & allowed him, unchallenged, to spout lies, racism and genocide propaganda, (as well as propaganda for war with Iran). If the UN does not get up from its knees, speak truth to power, and challenge the genocidal apartheid regime, its sponsors & proxies, & hold them to account for their serial criminality, it will almost certainly go the way of the League of Nations. Never again means never again for anyone. #ArrestHerzog"

The United Kingdom’s military collaboration with Israel during its assault on Gaza, as well as its support through arms provisions, logistical aid, and direct military interventions in Yemen to support Israel’s objectives, could constitute a breach of international law, a new report reveals.

“A UK-based human rights group [=The Arab Organisation for Human Rights in the UK (AOHR UK)] has called on the International Criminal Court (#ICC) prosecutor to open an investigation into the crimes committed by the Palestinian Authority (#PA) security forces in the occupied Palestinian territories.”

“The AOHR UK emphasised that following the events of 7 October 2023, PA security forces acting under the directives of President Mahmoud Abbas launched a widespread crackdown targeting activists and prohibiting any show of solidarity with fellow Palestinians in the Gaza Strip…”

"In a video posted on Instagram, a Palestinian woman said: “We’re willing to die on our land. We won’t leave it. This is the proof right in front of Trump’s eyes. Tell the whole world: we’re ready to die on our land."

"Our land is our honour. Trump is dreaming if he thinks any of us will go to Egypt or Jordan,” she continued in the voiceover of a clip filmed from the Netzarim corridor in Gaza, where thousands of Palestinians can be seen returning to their destroyed homes in the north."

""My heart is beating. I thought I would never come back,” said Osama, a 50-year-old public servant and father of five, as he arrived in Gaza City.

“Whether the ceasefire succeeds or not, we will never leave Gaza City and the north again, even if Israel would sent a tank for each one of us. No more displacement,” he told the Associated Press.""

Remembering our colleagues killed in Gaza | MSF (2025-01-24)

https://www.msf.org/remembering-our-colleagues-killed-gaza
------

"We mourn the tragic loss of our colleagues who have been killed since the start of the war in Gaza in October 2023. We are outraged that many of these people were killed while providing care for patients or sheltering with their families. We remain deeply concerned for the safety of all our staff members and patients in Gaza, Palestine.

"We denounce the repeated attacks on health workers and medical facilities by Israeli forces, which made it nearly impossible for us to continue to provide lifesaving humanitarian assistance. While a temporary ceasefire is in place, a permanent and sustained ceasefire remains the only solution to ease the suffering of Palestinians."

Followed by photo, name, date of killing and short description for each 9 members.
