"How long have you got?"

Not that f'king long...expect PC Bod along shortly for a ticking orff. :D
 
There are some very noticeable themes

Human rights, invasion and occupation, racist oppression.

No surprise it's still going on.

In other news:

 
It seems the IDF have withdrawn from Kahn Yunis. Going on other areas this may mean only bombs and drones there now. Those still currently seem to be used all over Gaza even in Gaza City.

2 more reports of shooting since the last one when aid is being collected.

EU, Canada and Oz have renewed UNRWA funding. I assume they think that UNRWA is the only outfit available that can distribute aid. However the UN seem to still think it's too dangerous.

The CIA reported to the senate. This sort of war wont kill an idea. ;) Not that I would take much notice of a source like that as they have other interests.

All those UN resolutions - seems to be a problem. Is it the US and UK? Benjamin feels that he has ended any possibility of a separate Palestinian state.

HAMAS has submitted a new deal. Seems to be much like the original. Stages leading to a permanent ceasefire.

Forgot - Israel has been asked to turn the electricity and water back on. Given destruction levels that might have problems
