Horrific. Death toll has risen to 81 and reports of injured or wounded people in the several hundreds. You can hear the shooting in the background; these people were desperate for flour and were annihilated.

This is probably what Israel were hoping for with this heinous and senseless provocation. Now they have reason to continue their decimation into Ramadan.

Excerpt from The Guardian live updates feed:
Hamas warns it could end hostage release negotiations
Hamas has release a statement warning it could stop taking part in negotiations after the incident today which health authorities in Gaza say has killed at least 104 Palestinians who were seeking humanitarian aid amid the widespread food deprivation in the Gaza Strip.

Reuters reports in its statement Hamas said:

The negotiations conducted by the movement’s leadership are not an open process at the expense of the blood of our people.

Rishi Sunak pledges extra £54m for security of Jewish communities amid record levels of antisemitism

The additional funds will go to the Community Security Trust (CST) - a charity protecting Jewish communities in the UK - to provide security measures until 2028.

At the expense of the tax payer?? When we have public services in England on its knees…when there are soaring crime rates, austerity and issues with food importation due to Brexit?

 

[Haich]

Just an FYI, there is a large Jewish community in London, not sure if the same exists in other cities but they have their own schools, hospitals and even police. There is clearly no need to fund them for ‘protection’…

£52 million for a community already well off and stable is just bewildering and infuriating given the circumstances of most Brits.

U.S. Bypasses UNRWA in Palestinian Aid Funds

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) will not receive any aid as part of $53 million in new humanitarian assistance for Gaza that Washington announced on February 27....

www.fdd.org

U.S Special Envoy to the Middle East David Satterfield said on February 16 that "Congress has made clear...that U.S funding for UNRWA will stop. It's not a suspension. It is a prohibition on providing further funding.

Expert Analysis
“There is no coming back from October 7 for UNRWA. The UN secretary-general needs to come to terms with this reality and execute a transition to the many available alternative vehicles for aid delivery.”

You've got to wonder why the Gulf States haven't come out and donated to UNRWA. They could easily add a 0 to the $53 million that the Americans are diverting elsewhere.

MAY CAUSE DISTRESS

Footage authenticated by Al Jazeera’s verification unit Sanad shows a child being pulled from under the rubble of a collapsed building targeted by an Israeli bombardment in Gaza City.

The visibly emaciated child was rescued by a civil defence unit after surviving nine days amid the ruins of his collapsed home in the Zeitoun neighbourhood, where fighting has been raging for the last few weeks.

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Israel last month to ensure that adequate humanitarian aid reaches Gaza as part of a ruling on preventing genocide in the territory.

But UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini says assistance to Palestinians in the besieged territory has drastically decreased since the top UN court issued its orders.

In a world run by normal decent human beings todays atrocity would have been the last straw. Unfortunately we are being run by zionists and their lickspittles both of whom are neither decent or normal.

"Israeli journalist Yuval Abraham says that he has received death threats for giving an “anti-Semitic” speech at the Berlin International Film Festival.

His film No Other Land – about young Palestinian activist Basel Adra, who is fighting against being displaced by Israeli settlers in the Masafer Yatta community in the occupied West Bank – won the Documentary Award at the festival.

Israel’s Channel 11 aired a section of Abraham’s acceptance speech – in which he criticised the “situation of apartheid” between him and Adra – and labelled it anti-Semitic, prompting a backlash against the journalist.

“In two days, we will go back to a land where we are not equal. I’m living under civilian law, and Basel is under military law,” he said in his speech.

“We live 30 minutes from one another, but I have voting rights, and Basel does not have voting rights. I’m free to move wherever I want in this land, Basel is like millions of Palestinians locked in the occupied West Bank.”
