As EPBC reforms get framed as political tussles & deal-making, don't forget ongoing colonialism, what's at stake on Indigenous lands, and their warnings that bad amendments & inadequate environmental laws "risk irreversible damage to country, culture and communities"

Israeli group B’Tselem notes that, since a supposed “ceasefire” in Gaza, Israel has:

* killed 345 Palestinians,

* denied food to 70% of the population who need it,

* demolished a further 1,500 buildings.

All of this is in blatant violation of the agreement.
