for those in London:
"The dynamic and intimate trio A Body of Rumours, is a celebration of music, movement, and brotherhood. Three young Black men—linked by rhythm, trust, and shared histories—move through a choreography that draws from ballet, hip hop, and contemporary forms." - at The Place

#Dr.HussamAbuSafia was detained in the notorious Sadiya Talman detention center because of his treatment of children in Gaza. The occupation refused to release him under the ceasefire agreement and is being treated inhumanely.

Remember, from nowon, every donation you make is a stone in a shelter for my family to protect them from the winter.

We've lost a sense of security since losing our home.

I hope you don't let us down and abandon us during this most difficult time we're going through.

While Israelis celebrated the return of captives from Gaza, Israel warned Palestinian families against holding celebrations over the return of prisoners – some who had been held for decades. Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh explains.

On this week’s cover of The Lancet, a new letter: “Gaza’s healthocide: medical societies must not stay silent”.

Read the letter and more in our latest issue: tinyurl.com/5n85x448

Cover of The Lancet's Oct 4, 2025 issue. Cover quote reads: "Most medical and surgical societies worldwide have remained silent or issued vague statements about Gaza's healthocide [...] Staying silent while pretending to be neutral is, in effect, a form of complicity."

The Swiss journalist @emilianobos.bsky.social ( @rts.ch ) managed to enter the Gaza Strip with a cameraman on Friday - first foreign journalists that enter Gaza. The below video was taken in Rafah.

Criticism of biased media coverage of Gaza is often discarded as baseless..

so we set out to study the coverage of Palestinian and Israeli victims by German press systematically!

The resulting study 'Hierarchies in Death' was just published #OA by Peacebuilding www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

People gave a record amount of money to multiple organizations for the people of Gaza and all this money just sat there for the past 2 years because Israel blocked it. I hope this money gets distributed quickly now so that the people of Gaza don't have to beg anymore

Wenn man keinerlei Argumente mehr hat, muss man zu offensichtlichen Lügen greifen, in der Hoffnung, dass es niemand kapiert.

In ihrem heutigen Beitrag in der taz stellen Klaus Lederer und Alexander Karschnia die falsche Behauptung auf, der Gruppe „Israelis für Frieden“ habe man eine Rede auf der Gaza-Demo am 27. September nicht erlaubt. Diese Aussage entspricht nicht den Tatsachen, was sich problemlos überprüfen lässt.

Die Attacke von Nius ist skandalös, dass Weimer darauf überhaupt eingeht, aber ebenso. Er akzeptiert damit die Prämisse, dass das Verlagsprogramm vor Preisverleihungen überprüft werden soll.

The airstrikes may have stopped, but the real war in Gaza has just begun, a silent war of grief and shattered hearts.
Every night without those we lost, Gaza turns into one endless house of mourning.
