Trump silent amidst global outrage on Jenin video; unthinkable step by UK govt. | Janta Ka Reporter
The video from Jenin involving IDF soldiers has evoked widespread criticism even as western leaders chose to look the other way. This comes amidst the UK government resorting to an extraordinary step by removing the judge who was expected to hear an appeal by Palestine Action against their proscription. Rifat Jawaid questions the silence of Donald Trump and his allies in Europe over the video from the occupied West Bank. He also compares the removal of the judge in the UK with that of India where it’s common to misuse the powers by the government.
UN condemns ‘brazen killing’ of Palestinians in West Bank
he UN says it's 'appalled' by what it called the 'brazen killing' of two Palestinian men by Israeli forces in the Occupied West Bank, describing it as an "apparent summary execution'.
The incident - which Israel says is being investigated - comes amid widening Israeli military operations across the Palestinian territories and neighbouring countries in recent days. An IDF raid on the Syrian village of Beit Jinn overnight killed at least 13 people. The IDF say they were targeting terror suspects, but Syria's government labelled it a 'war crime'. Israel has also continued to strike Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon. While in Gaza - strikes have been reported in Rafah, with Israel and Hamas accusing each other of repeated ceasefire violations. A warning; this report contains distressing images.
Pensioners in Derry stand firm as UK arrests thousands over Palestine Action support
In Derry, Ireland, a small group of elderly protesters gathers each week outside the town hall, holding cardboard signs declaring support for Palestine Action, now banned under UK terrorism laws. Since the July proscription, more than 2,000 people have been arrested nationwide for showing solidarity with the group, a crackdown that followed activists’ break-in at RAF Brize Norton.
While police in London have hauled protesters away for identical signs, officers in Derry mostly stand back as the pensioners hold their quiet vigil. For many here, the ban echoes past repression and feels like a stark warning that hard-won freedoms are once again under threat.
