Australian Reporter Wins Suit Against ABC Over ‘Anti-Semitic’ Post

June 26, 2025 Joe Lauria, Consortium News. , , , , ,
A judge in a federal court in Sydney, Australia has ruled against the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) for wrongly dismissing a radio presenter after she shared an instagram post from Human Rights Watch that accused Israel of using starvation as a weapon in Gaza. Judge Darryl Rangiah awarded journalist Antoinette Lattouf AU$70,000 and possibly more in damages on Wednesday in a case that undermines an organized campaign in Australia, like in many countries today, that is attacking legitimate critics of Israel’s conduct in Gaza as being anti-semitic. Senior ABC executives had testified at trial that they had been flooded with complaints — even though none of the contested content had been discussed on air — and that pressure had mounted to get rid of the presenter, which they did.

Washington Green-Lights $30m For Gaza Aid Scheme

June 25, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , ,
The US government approved a $30 million grant to the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) on 20 June under a “priority directive” from the White House and the State Department. According to a document reviewed by Reuters, an initial $7 million had already been disbursed at the time. This is the first publicly known financial contribution by Washington to the GHF, which until now had received only diplomatic backing. Two officials cited in the report said the US may approve additional continuous monthly grants of $30 million to the group. GHF, launched in late May, is a joint US–Israeli initiative that relies on private US military and logistics contractors to deliver and distribute aid across Gaza.

Israel’s War On Gaza: Who Are Palestine Action?

June 25, 2025 Katherine Hearst, Middle East Eye. , , , , ,
The British government is set to ban the direct action group Palestine Action under anti-terror legislation after activists broke into RAF Brize Norton earlier this month and spray-painted two planes. The group said the airbase was targeted because flights leave there daily "for RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, a base used for military operations in Gaza and across the Middle East". The activists damaged Airbus Voyager aircraft, which carry military cargo and refuel fighter jets and military planes. Home Secretary Yvette Cooper has said she will bring legislation to proscribe the group before Parliament on 30 June.

Study Finds Israel ‘Disappeared’ Nearly 400,000 Palestinians In Gaza

June 24, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , , ,
A new report published by the Harvard database reveals that Israel has “disappeared” at least 377,000 Palestinians since the start of its genocidal campaign against the Gaza Strip in 2023. Half of this number is believed to be Palestinian children. The report was written by Israeli professor Yaakov Garb, who used data-driven analysis and spatial mapping to show how the Israeli army’s siege of Gaza and indiscriminate attacks on civilians in the enclave have led to a serious drop in its population. The 377,000 Palestinians who are unaccounted for due to Israel’s genocide are approximately 17 percent of the Gaza Strip’s entire population, which now stands at about 1.85 million. Prior to the war in Gaza, the strip’s population was estimated at 2.227 million.

‘Disarmiamoli!’ Brings 30,000 To Rome Against NATO And War

June 24, 2025 Ana Vracar, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , , , ,
Some 30,000 people took to the streets of Rome on June 21 to protest war and rising military expenditures. Organized under the banner “Disarmiamoli!” (Let’s disarm them!), the demonstration brought together workers, grassroots trade unions, student collectives, and social movements. Protesters condemned the expansion of military budgets across Europe, coming at the direct expense of public services like healthcare, education, and other public services. “Forty billion [euros] more will be gradually handed over to war instead of addressing our real needs, schools, hospitals, emergency services and environmental transition, and social support for those in need,” the Disarmiamoli! network stated ahead of the protest.

The Italian grassroots trade union Unione Sindacale di Base (USB) launched a general strike on Friday, June 20, to escalate national mobilization against armament and war. Echoing a slogan from broader peace campaigns – “Abbassate le armi, alzate i salari” (“Lower the weapons, raise the wages”) – striking workers aiming to expose the consequences of Europe’s, and more specifically Italy’s, growing military-industrial agenda, including more cuts in the region’s public services. “This is a strike against war and rearmament, but also against the devastating militarization of the economy and society,” USB stated ahead of the strike.

US Relocates Forces From Gulf Bases Ahead Of Possible Iran Strike

June 20, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , , ,
On 18 June, the US began relocating aircraft and naval assets from key military sites in West Asia over concerns of potential Iranian retaliation, two US officials told reporters on condition of anonymity. The repositioning effort includes aircraft not housed in hardened shelters at Al-Udeid Air Base in Qatar, and naval vessels previously stationed at the port of Bahrain, home to the US Navy’s 5th Fleet. One official said the moves fall under standard force protection procedures. “It is not an uncommon practice,” the official said. “Force protection is the priority.”

Gaza Humanitarian Foundation: Direct Accomplice In Israel’s Killing

June 18, 2025 Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor. , , , , ,
Palestinian Territory – The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is directly responsible for the escalating Israeli crimes against starved Palestinian civilians near aid distribution points in central and southern Gaza The foundation's operational model involves luring civilians to specific locations coordinated with the Israeli army, where they are subjected to killing, injury, and cruel and degrading treatment. These points have effectively become death traps used as tools in Israel’s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian population for over 20 months. On Tuesday morning, at least 80 Palestinians were killed and 200 others injured by Israeli fire near a US-backed aid distribution point in eastern Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, as they approached the site to collect aid.

Chicago Jewish Activists Embark On Indefinite Hunger Strike Over Gaza

June 17, 2025 Shane Burley, In These Times. , , , , , , , ,
The risk of famine increases in Gaza as the Israeli government’s blockade of nearly all aid to Gaza approaches its third month. “I felt this almost sense of panic as every day went by without food let in,” Ash Bohrer, a Chicago-based Jewish activist in the Palestinian solidarity movement, told me as she outlined how high the stakes are as the genocide continues in Gaza. “When I first heard it, my initial thought was … if there is some way I can use my body,” Bohrer said, ​“I am ready and willing to do it, and I think about it as a personal, moral and religious obligation to do so.”

Meet The American Military Veterans Fasting For Gaza

June 17, 2025 Azad Essa, Middle East Eye. , , , , ,
Joy Metzler was a second lieutenant in the US Air Force when Aaron Bushnell self-immolated in protest against the US's role in Israel's war on Gaza. The 23-year-old Metzler was so moved by Bushnell's sacrifice in February 2024 that she began researching Palestine. Horrified by Israel's occupation and US backing for what international human rights groups, experts and several countries now qualify as an act of genocide in Gaza, she became a conscientious objector to the war, choosing to leave the air force in August 2024. Her application to be excused from the air force was approved in April 2025.

Reports With Video From The March To Gaza

June 16, 2025 David Swanson, World Beyond War. , , , , , ,
On the morning of the 13th, delegates headed in taxis to a remote site in the Sinai desert. There were three military checkpoints: at the first some delegates were turned back and forced into a bus that left them in Cairo; those of us that made it to a third checkpoint were stopped and all our passports were confiscated… about 1200 of us gathered and were gradually encircled by the Egyptian military. At that point we were told we could turn back or “risk being arrested”—about 50 people left and were bussed back to Cairo. Those remaining chanted and talked among ourselves and the time passed quickly despite the desert heat.

Israel Opens New Front With Iran, But Gaza Still Bleeds

June 15, 2025 Quds News Network. , , , , ,
In the hours after Israel attacked Iran, international pressure over Israel’s starvation and civilian killings in Gaza had apparently dissipated. Since Israel launched attacks on Iran, it has killed more than 140 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip, including over 40 aid seekers near the distribution sites run by the controversial US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). Internet and fixed-line communications were down across Gaza after Israeli forces bombed the territory’s last remaining fiber optic cable on Thursday. Israel prevented repairs to the internet and telecommunications infrastructure until Saturday evening, when service was finally restored.

Condemning Repression Of Sumoud Convoy, Global March To Gaza

June 13, 2025 La Via Campesina. , , , , ,
La Via Campesina, representing millions of peasants, landless workers, rural women, and grassroots movements in over 80 countries, declares a state of political and moral alert in response to the catastrophic regional escalation triggered by Israel’s war on Gaza and the broader Palestinian people. In the early hours of today, the Israeli occupation launched large-scale airstrikes on Iran — a dangerous development that transforms what was already a genocidal campaign in Palestine into a regional war with unforeseeable consequences. This marks a new phase in a long-standing colonial project, now fueled by imperialist impunity, aimed not only at crushing Palestinian resistance but also at destabilizing the entire region through military aggression, collective punishment, and political domination.

Egypt Blocks And Deports Activists On The Global March To Gaza

June 12, 2025 Popular Resistance. , , , , ,
The Global March to Gaza reports that hundreds of independent activists and organizations from around the world were violently deported by Egyptian authorities. Police and officials at Cairo Airport violated the activists; human rights. They not only deceived them by requesting their passports to enter, but also kept them waiting and detained in the security checkpoint for more than six hours. After several hours, they beat women and men forced them to leave the airport on buses and did not return the belongings of some of the deportees. The Egyptian government indiscriminately expelled the activists, returning them to Istanbul. The activists came from various backgrounds, including the coordinator of the International Platform for Solidarity with the Palestinian Cause, journalist and activist Hindu Anderi, and popular communicator Rome Arrieche.

Last week, six Dartmouth College students began a hunger strike in support of Gaza. The activists are demanding that Dartmouth’s Board of Trustees approve the Dartmouth Divest for Palestine divestment proposal, which was recently rejected by the college. They’re also calling for the school to lift its suspension of student Roan Wade, who was targeted over their involvement in campus protests. Mondoweiss U.S. correspondent Michael Arria spoke with Wade, and fellow hunger striker Greyson Xiao about the hunger strike. Both students are members of the Palestine Solidarity Coalition.
