"There are no safe zones."
A 27-year-old Palestinian woman, Basma Aram Banat, was shot dead by Israeli occupation forces this morning in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza Strip, according to local sources.
Her killing raises the Palestinian death toll to 615 since the ceasefire started.
Between displacement tents and shelters, Gaza's displaced population are trying to preserve the spirit of the holy month of Ramadan, but the pain and destruction make it far more difficult.
Irish author Sally Rooney welcomed the UK High Court’s ruling that banning Palestine Action under anti-terrorism laws was unlawful, calling it a major victory for civil liberties in Britain.
The court found the government’s decision to proscribe the group disproportionate and said it significantly interfered with freedom of speech and assembly.
Rooney, who submitted witness statements supporting the legal challenge brought by co-founder Huda Ammori, said the ban posed a serious threat to artistic and political expression and even risked preventing her books from being published in the UK.
Hundreds of mourners take part in the funeral of slain Mohammad Hanani, a Palestinian teenager who was killed last night by Israeli army fire in the town of Beit Furik, east of Nablus.
Amjad Al-Shawwa, head of the Palestinian NGO Network in Gaza, said that Israeli forces continue their violations in the Strip, expanding the so-called “yellow line” further into residential areas.
He stated that Israel now maintains control over around 60% of Gaza’s territory and has not allowed the entry of any mobile homes, worsening the suffering of displaced families living in tents.
He added that the ongoing expansion of the Yellow Line deeper into civilian neighborhoods is further compounding the crisis.
The Oscar-nominated film The Voice of Hind Rajab has emerged as one of the most discussed entries of this awards season.
Directed by Tunisian filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania, the movie recounts the true story of Hind Rajab, a young Palestinian girl killed by Israeli forces in Gaza, incorporating actual audio from her emergency call.
The film has garnered widespread critical acclaim, winning the Grand Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival and earning a nomination for a BAFTA.
