Told @bbcnews that the decision to suspend funding to @unrwa was disgraceful. It is collectively punishing Palestinian refugees in Gaza and across the region, including the most vulnerable who are being bombed and starved to death in Gaza. Serious allegations were made against 12 UNRWA staff. They were dismissed. An investigation is proceeding. What more is the UN supposed to do? And yet at the same time, Israel, who the ICJ has just ruled could be carrying out genocide against those same Palestinians, has faced zero consequences for its actions. The double standards are acute.

How can such a large agency operating in a war zone, in an area under Isrseli occupation, be expected to police 24 hours, 7 days a week so thousands? The UK gov has by suspending funding to UNRWA caved in to those who have been enabling Israeli crimes and possible genocide.

Since Hamas launched this war, the Israeli Air Force has struck 22,000+ targets in the Gaza Strip. Even based on Hamas numbers passing off terrorists as civilians, that's less than 0.8 civilian deaths per airstrike. That's what world-leading precision looks like.

This should factored into the international response. This was no accident. 3 strikes on aid workers. Most states would face immediate sanctions
It is misleading to describe the @WCKitchen killing as an airstrike (singular). In actual fact 3 vehicles were targeted, with the first & last being over 2.4km apart. The IDF decided to make 3 targeted strikes, not one. Geolocation from @m_osint and @ChrisOsieck #Gaza

If Palestinian officials were to reject a two state solution, fury of UK Ministers. When Israeli PM and officials reject it, business as usual. The double standards are acute.
BREAKING: Israeli ambassador @TzipiHotovely rejects the idea of a two-state solution "The answer is absolutely no", she says. trib.al/2gJuZGW 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

Denying rape and lying about it should see @realzoestrimpel fired from the Telegraph. Odious.
It's actually wild that @realzoestrimpel from the Telegraph denied on national TV that Israeli soldiers raped Palestinian prisoners. There was a whole protest in Isreal about it and it was debated in thier parliament. It's not "fake news."

Israel makes allegations against UNRWA but provides zero evidence. What happens? UK supends funding pending investigation Israel carries out three strikes against known aid worker vehicles. What happens? UK says - Israel please investigate yourself, and we'll still sell you arms

If you want to see a people struggling for survival, check out 2.3 million Palestinians facing famine, destruction and eradication in Gaza. To argue that Israel is adhering to international law is an earth is flat argument that disgraces you and the office you hold.
It beggars belief that the British government, a close strategic ally of Israel, has announced a partial suspension of arms licences, at a time when Israel is fighting a war for its very survival on seven fronts forced upon it on the 7th October, and at the very moment when six hostages murdered in cold blood by cruel terrorists were being buried by their families. As Israel faces down the threat of Iran and its proxies, not just to its own people, but to all of us in the democratic west; this announcement feeds the falsehood that Israel is in breach of International Humanitarian Law, when in fact it is going to extraordinary lengths to uphold it. Sadly, this announcement will serve to encourage our shared enemies. It will not help to secure the release of the remaining 101 hostages, nor contribute to the peaceful future we wish and pray for, for all people in the region and beyond. Britain and Israel have so much to gain by standing together against our common enemies for the sake of a safer world. Surely that must be the way forward.

Israel is stealing more Palestinian land in occupied territory. It has just announced the theft of 8000 dunums of land in the Jordan Valley, in addition to the 2,640 dunums stolen in February. We are not even a quarter of the way through 2024 but this year has seen more land stolen than any other since Oslo Accords. peacenow.org.il/en/the-israe…

When your soldiers get caught on camera raping a Palestinian ....it is not a propaganda fail. It is a crime
Netanyahu: The incident at Sde Teiman is perhaps the worst Hasbara blow that the State of Israel has experienced.

Just disgraceful.... state policy
This morning the IDF demolished a Palestinian school in the village of Al-Sfai, Masafer Yatta (Firing Zone 918). Look at the children retrieving their textbooks which were scattered on the ground. 1/4 THREAD

The ruling of the ICJ today is far more serious than deeming settlements are illegal, which it had already done. It went way further including determining the occupation to be illegal, that Israel is conducting apartheid and must pay reparations. theguardian.com/world/live/2…

Completely false. Israel occupies & controls 5.5 million Palestinians. They cannot enter or exit occupied territory without Israel's permission. In the West Bank they cannot move from one city to another without Israeli permission. Israel determines how much water they get.
It's always easy to repeat talking points. In reality, Israel governs 600k of 4 million Palestinians. There are 3.4 million Palestinians governed by PA and Hamas. Chris is confusing absence of Palestinian sovereignty with human rights issues.

What is happening now to Palestinians in Gaza is one of the greatest failures of the international community.
I cannot reach anyone in Gaza right now - nothing is getting going through, I understand network is out across the strip. Reports of very heavy bombardment particularly in the north. Comes amid continued talk of a possible ground incursion.

Every day.... appalling comments like this. Nothing ever happens to those that state them.
"Therefore, if the children of Gaza are forced to starve, to live in sewage pipes, and to eat moldy bread, I don't care, let this happen." An Israeli journalist says it is okay for Israel to starve Gaza's children to death so long as there are Israeli prisoners in the enclave.
