A new 26 October 2026 UN report concludes: Israel is perpetrating crimes against humanity against Palestinians in the West Bank, including gang rape. Some new findings revealed: Since its March 2025 report on Israel’s systemic use of sexual, reproductive and other forms of gender-based violence, 4 more cases of sexual violence in Israel's rape dungeons have been documented, including gang rape, genital violence, groping of breasts and threats of sexual violence, forced nudity: ⏩ In 2025, in the Meggido prison, a Palestinian male victim was blindfolded, forced to remove his underpants. He was force to bend over on his knees exposing his genitals to male and female prison guards. He was then gang raped multiple times with objects while prison guards mocked and photographed him, squeezed his penis threatening him it would be cut off until he screamed in pain. He was also threatened that family members and colleagues would be raped. The victim sustained serious injuries, including bleeding from the rectum, for which he did not receive any medical treatment. ⏩ In 2025, a pregnant Palestinian woman was subjected to multiple strip searches accompanied by beatings. While in Damon prison, she was made to undress completely while a female guard touched and looked inside her vagina and anus while humiliating her. As a result of inadequate nutrition, compounded by mistreatment in detention, she was unable to produce breastmilk for her infant once released. ⏩ Another woman was subjected to multiple invasive body searches and forced nudity during her detention and interrogation at Jalma Interrogation Center and Damon prison. On one occasion, she was made to undress, unveil and was searched in the presence of male guards. On another occasion, female soldiers touched her breasts, made her squat naked while they looked inside her vagina and anus. During her interrogation, she was subjected to beatings, denied access to the toilet. Your friendly reminder that Israel operates the most well-documented network of rape dungeons on earth.

Masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on Friday, setting olive groves on fire and slinging rocks. Caught in the attack was Post photographer Heidi Levine. “They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times,” Levine said. wapo.st/4yt6dHY

As we enter the home stretch in the lead-up to Israel’s election, the attack ads are growing more and more vicious. Several candidates have now accused each other of the vile act of.. helping sick children in Gaza. Tonight, Yoseph Haddad is firing back with his adamant denial: Come on guys. You know me. I would never ever help sick kids in Gaza. I was only pretending to in order to make Israel look good! There truly is no bottom.

There's a story going around: after the drone strikes on Yandex data centres, comments on AfD and MAGA accounts collapsed. We monitor 17,000+ politicians, media and civil society accounts in 30+ countries. 50,000+ posts a day. So we checked. We don't see it. 🧵

New @nytimes reporting shows US Embassy officials in Israel are blocking info from Congress on the killings of Americans in the West Bank. I'm calling on @SenatorRisch & the Foreign Relations Committee to hold a hearing into this coverup. The American people deserve the truth.

Just another example of Israeli apartheid
“Only democracy in the Middle East” has 2 sets of speech rules: one for Jews and one for Palestinians. In English, we call this Apartheid. Not so complicated after all.

Why is Israel transporting trucks of rubble, and presumably human remains, out of Gaza every day? "The occupied Gaza Strip is currently undergoing the most serious terraforming, that is to say, transformation of the landscape, transformation of the topography, erasure of building and the removal of evidence," says @Weizman_Eyal.

🚨 SMOTRICH: “THE KEY TO FORCING GAZANS OUT IS TO TAKE AWAY THEIR HOPE” Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said the key to displacing Gaza’s population is to make them believe there will be no reconstruction, adding that Israel should annex territory up to the “yellow line” and leave Gaza “small, crowded and destroyed” so people will see “no point in staying.” He also referred to Gaza’s population as “two million Nazis.”

Horrifying. Now we know why Netanyahu continues to ban international media from Gaza.
Google Earth updated the images of Gaza. It's devastating.

🔴Statement from the Lebanese Ministry of Health: The Ministry of Public Health condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the barbaric crime committed by the Israeli enemy in burning down the Mays al-Jabal Governmental Hospital—an act constituting a flagrant and brutal assault. This public healthcare facility—which the Ministry had diligently refurbished and equipped with state-of-the-art medical technology to serve as a lifeline and a safe haven for displaced residents and those steadfastly remaining in border areas—is now facing systematic destruction that reveals a profound moral bankruptcy and deep-seated criminality. The occupation forces did not merely occupy the facility previously and convert it into a military barracks; they have now gone so far as to burn it down completely, thereby depriving the people of the South of their most basic human rights to medical treatment and healthcare. The Ministry asserts that targeting medical institutions and healthcare personnel constitutes a full-fledged war crime and a blatant violation of international conventions. It calls upon the international community, the World Health Organization, and the International Committee of the Red Cross to immediately break their suspicious silence and hold the occupation accountable for its repeated crimes against Lebanon’s health sector. Furthermore, the Ministry emphasizes that these criminal acts will not break the people's resolve; the Ministry remains committed to fulfilling its national and humanitarian duty and supporting the people of the South with all available resources, regardless of the sacrifices required.

“Boris Johnson, Deborah Lipstadt, Sir Niall Ferguson, Shari Redstone, Steven Pinker, Benny Morris, Sherry Lansing, Simon Sebag Montefiore, Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein, Irwin Cotler, Debra Messing and thousands of others reject the genocide accusation against Israel and warn that it fuels antisemitism worldwide” None of these people named above are genocide scholars or Holocaust historians (many of whom do say it is a genocide in Gaza!). One of them is a serial liar (Boris Johnson). Another (Benny Morris) says Israel made a mistake not getting rid of all the Palestinians from the territory in 1948.

As if we couldn’t guess that
British diplomats have privately told US counterparts that the new sanctions on Israeli settlements "are largely symbolic and will have no material impact on the UK's wider relationship with Israel", according to Bloomberg.

It’s crazy how bombing hospitals was a war crime until Israel did it over and over again. Now it’s barely a news story.

Replying to @SenatorSlotkin
You voted to starve Palestinians and then voted to sanction the ICC for charging the Israelis slaughtering them.
