The family explained that Yasser had deceived them for years by claiming to work in humanitarian aid for Gaza residents. However, shocking footage released by the Palestinian resistance later revealed his involvement in security operations for Israel. Testimonies from those close to him confirmed his affiliation with undercover Israeli units (“Mistaravim”), and even showed him beside an Israeli tank in Rafah wearing a helmet of an Israeli “anti-terror” unit.

The statement emphasized that the family would not allow its name and legacy of resistance to be tarnished by a collaborator, calling on the public and resistance forces to pursue and hold him accountable. The declaration went as far as stating that “his blood is forfeit.” The family urged anyone who followed him to immediately denounce him or risk facing the same consequences.

Previously accused of being affiliated with ISIS and stealing aid trucks, Yasser Abu Shabab has now become a symbol of a far more dangerous Israeli plan: to establish a post-war local force loyal to Israel and present it as an alternative to Gaza’s national resistance leadership. This bold step by the Abu Shabab family has been widely welcomed by Palestinians, who saw it as a clear message to every traitor:“Treason will not be protected—even if it comes from within the household.”

Life as a genocidal settler-colony can be hard. You just want to quietly go about your day, exterminating the natives to fulfil your Biblical prophecy of Disney Land Gaza, but you keep running into problems like "international law" and "public opinion".

Israel was close to clearing the skeletal population out of Gaza when they heard something truly terrifying is on its way. No, not the asteroid at the edge of the solar system that may or may not be an earthbound alien mothership! I'm talking about something much scarier: international wanted terrorist Greta Thunberg and her second-in-command Liam Cunningham, a fearsome warrior who was forged in the fires of Westeros. The pair are travelling aboard a flotilla of... humanitarian aid ships.

As you can imagine, the 4"10 autistic girl and her loyal assistant strike fear into the heart of every IDF soldier. The situation could only be scarier if Ms Rachel was aboard one of those vessels, but that doesn't bear thinking about. Israeli drone operatives are in a difficult position: if they do what they want to the Freedom Flotilla, they could find themselves charged with "war crimes", and if they allow the boats to get through, it will set the precedent that Palestinians eat. As you can imagine, Israeli strategists are in panic mode, trying to figure out the best way forward.

The weaponisation of food echoes the horrors of the Jewish ghettos, as Palestinians are pushed beyond the limits of human endurance.

Syria’s geopolitical importance cannot be underestimated, and its political alignment has shaped regional power dynamics for decades.

Aware of Syria’s strategic role as well as strength in resisting Western meddling and imperialistic goals, the US and its allies funded and trained hostile “opposition” groups, presenting themselves as defenders of freedom – their go-to slogan for pursuing imperialist agendas in the Arab country and beyond.

According to former US ambassador to Syria Robert S. Ford, the United States spent at least $12 billion on military and civilian efforts in Syria from 2014 to 2017 alone.

Importantly, the US and its allies did not just fund militant groups that carried out terrorist attacks in the country; they also imposed sanctions that devastated Syria’s economy, directly affecting the lives of ordinary and innocent civilians.

A UN report reveals that the economic crisis brought about by Western sanctions was one of the key drivers of poverty in Syria, pushing 82 percent of the population into extreme hardship.

No action was seen on the part of Jolani or his regime to challenge or resist this unlawful seizure of Syrian land, nor did he act when Israel bombed Syrian military sites that might have bolstered HTS’s military capabilities in the future.

Meanwhile, advocates of regime change and supporters of HTS claimed that a “free Syria” would lead to a “free Palestine.” Yet, the reality has turned out to be the exact opposite, and now the silence from these very proponents is so profound, it is almost palpable.

The Gaza Freedom Flotilla started a new attempt at delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza by Sea. The last attempt a month ago was stopped as their ship was attacked by drones. The climate and human rights activist Greta Thunberg is also aboard.

The tracker serves to document the travel of the Flotilla in case of a new attack.

While news reports and testimonies have emerged of the torture of Palestinian prisoners held in detention camps like Sde Teiman—where there are frequent beatings, starvation, forced stress positions, rape, and death—there has been less recognition that these conditions are prevalent across all Israeli prisons and detention centers. There are 19 carceral facilities in Israel, and Ofer Prison, which operates in the West Bank.

“The first thing [the Israeli Prison Services] began to do was to fully isolate detainees,” Jaghoub said. After October 7th, isolation of detainees was not limited to solitary confinement, but included cutting prisoners off from any communication with family, lawyers, or the outside world, including stripping them of radio, television, and access to phone calls.

“One of the worst things of the isolation practices was even cutting us off from time. The confiscation of watches meant we are completely and fully cut off from the world entirely—that we were denied any piece of information, even knowing what time it,” Jaghoub told Drop Site.

The isolation of detainees cut the world off from detainees, rendering them invisible and allowing Israel to continue its practices against them without challenge. Only when prisoners were released could they fully reveal the degree of abuse inside, though some did manage to communicate from their prison cells.

Now, if the GHF’s Gaza debut is any indication, the militarised distribution of food will continue to provide opportunities for mass killing as crowds of starving Palestinians gather around aid hubs. The phrase “shooting fish in a barrel” comes to mind – as if the Gaza Strip weren’t enough of a barrel already.

To be sure, the idea of luring starving people to specific geographical points to facilitate Israel’s genocidal conquest is singularly diabolical. And as the US persists in enabling Israel’s fish-in-a-barrel approach, any remotely moral world would refuse to stomach the arrangement any longer.

Eyewitnesses have filmed Israeli military excavators in northern Gaza demolishing the Noura Al-Kaabi Dialysis Centre – the only specialised dialysis facility in Gaza. It’s the latest facility Israel has destroyed or blocked off as it forces Gaza’s population to the south.

Israel says its settlement expansion is to “prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state” as it announced 22 new settlements in the occupied West Bank. Palestinian lawyer Diana Buttu says Israeli officials are daring the world to stop them.

Israeli settlers kidnapped and tortured two Palestinian-American brothers from the village of Burqa near Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, the Wafa official Palestinian news agency reports.

Ghassan and Imad Jaber were visiting relatives in al-Mughayyir village when the Israeli settlers started assaulting them, al-Mughayyir mayor Sayel Canaan told Arabic media. The brothers were later released and evacuated to a nearby hospital for medical treatment.
