After The Ceasefire: What Next For Global Solidarity With Palestine?

Despite Hamas and Israel agreeing on a ceasefire on October 10, the genocide in the Gaza Strip has only slowed down. United States President Donald Trump’s “peace plan” does not address the Israeli structural violence that still exists against Palestinians, and there has been no real movement or action from governments to hold the architects of the genocide accountable for their crimes. Although the daily massacres – averaging about 100 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip – have lessened, the mechanisms of oppression are still firmly in place: the territory remains blockaded, and Israeli aerial and artillery attacks persist with minimal resistance from world governments.

Report: Trump-Led ‘Board Of Peace’ Considers ‘Expropriating’ Gaza Land

Following the passage of a UN resolution authorizing the US plan for post-war Gaza, President Donald Trump's so-called "Board of Peace" is considering 'expropriating" land from Palestinian owners displaced from the Israeli-controlled half of the strip, Haaretz reported on 23 November. Citing US officials and diplomats, the Israeli newspaper said the Board of Peace, headed by Trump, would be a "cornerstone" of the US plan for Gaza. "As outlined in the United Nations Security Council resolution adopted this week, the Board of Peace will coordinate the delivery of humanitarian assistance and facilitate Gaza's development," one US official said.

Did Germany Mislead The World Court?

Since April 2024, Germany has been on trial before the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague. Nicaragua had filed a case against the Federal Republic, accusing it of complicity in the genocide in Gaza. As has now become known, German representatives may have made false statements in their very first testimony before the ICJ in April 2024, concerning the arms exports delivered to Israel. As Drop Site News (DSN) and the liberal German magazine Stern reported in a joint article, there are now serious doubts about Germany’s statements. They cite comments from the German Defense Ministry, obtained through a press law procedure before a German administrative court.

Report: US Mercenary Firm Behind Aid Massacres Returning To Gaza

UG Solutions, a US military subcontractor that guarded Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) aid sites, is ramping up recruitment for a new deployment as plans advance for 12 to 15 distribution locations to reopen in Gaza next month, Drop Site News reported on 19 November. A former US Army officer, who spoke anonymously citing security concerns, said a UG Solutions recruiter told him in late October that the company “was going to need a lot more guys” for a Gaza operation expected to begin in early to mid-December. The officer was offered $800 per day for static guard duty and $1,000 for mobile roles, plus a steady allowance of $180 per day.

Chris Hedges Report: The Palestine Laboratory

Filmmaker, author and journalist Antony Loewenstein documents how Israel has used Gaza as a weapons showcase. Spyware, killer drones, robot dogs and other weapons are debuted in Gaza and field-tested on the civilian population, demonstrating their effectiveness to regimes around the world that await their chance to purchase them. Loewenstein joins host Chris Hedges on this episode of The Chris Hedges Report to chronicle what he has learned from writing The Palestine Laboratory: How Israel Exports the Technology of Occupation Around the World and producing The Palestine Laboratory, a documentary based on the book.

Palestinians In Gaza Reject UN Security Council Approval Of Trump’s Plan

The UN Security Council voted on Monday in favor of a U.S.-backed resolution establishing an “International Stabilization Force” (ISF) in Gaza under a “Board of Peace” headed by U.S. President Donald Trump. Under a two-year mandate, the stabilization force is reportedly planned to have an “executive” role in Gaza, not just as a peacekeeping force. The ISF is being established under Chapter 7 of the UN Charter, which means it is being granted the authority to disarm Palestinian resistance factions, aligning with Israeli demands, and could be established unilaterally, without the approval of the Palestinians. The UN Security Council resolution voted 13-0 in favor of the resolution, with two permanent members, Russia and China, abstaining from the vote.

Health Care Workers Spoke Out For Their Peers In Gaza; Then Backlash

Chandra Hassan, an associate professor of surgery at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) College of Medicine, spent three weeks in Gaza in January 2024, treating patients who had survived tank shelling, drone strikes, and sniper fire amid Israel’s ongoing genocide. When Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis came under siege, Hassan and the MedGlobal doctors he was serving with were forced to flee. “We were evacuated when they bombed just across the street from the hospital [and] tanks were rolling in,” Hassan told Truthout. When Hassan returned home to Chicago, he was eager to share his experiences and advocate for an end to Israel’s assault on Gaza, which has killed an estimated 68,000 Palestinians since October 2023.

UN Security Council Gives US ‘Mandate’ Over Palestine

The United Nations Security Council on Monday adopted a resolution that gives the world body’s imprimatur to Donald Trump’s plan for Gaza, a territory he said publicly should be ethnically cleansed to develop a Mediterranean resort. The council voted 13 nations in favor with two abstentions from China and Russia, which could have vetoed Trump’s plans. The resolution essentially revives the colonial mandate system of the League of Nations after the First World War, and the United Nations’ trusteeship system after the Second World War, both schemes in which colonial powers remained in charge of a colonized territory while it was supposed to wean it towards independence.

Ex-UN Official Decries Resolution Backing Gaza Force As ‘Colonial Outrage’

A former senior UN human rights official has denounced the Security Council’s adoption of a resolution backing a US plan for foreign forces and governance in Gaza, calling it a “colonial outrage”. Craig Mokhiber, former director of the New York office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), described the vote as a “day of shame” for the UN and accused governments worldwide of being “on their knees before the US empire and its violent Israeli client”. He criticised the "horrific" resolution as a violation of international law. “This proposal has been rejected by Palestinian civil society and factions, as well as by defenders of human rights and international law everywhere,” Mokhiber said on X.

What Genocide Looks Like When Silicon Valley Writes The Brochure

It’s being called the GREAT Trust. A glossy plan for Gaza’s ​“redevelopment” that includes solar plants, hospitals and an Elon Musk-branded ​“Smart Manufacturing Zone.” But, as analysts have suggested, it only works if the people of Gaza are gone. The slides leaked over a month ago to the Washington Post spell out the game plan: Gazans will be forced to choose between dubious and iniquitous ​“voluntary” mass relocation or ​“temporary housing,” while and billionaires get their branded tech playground built on ashes and bones. This is what genocide looks like when Silicon Valley writes the brochure: ethnic cleansing dressed up as innovation.

Israel Kills Gazans Trying To Return To Homes Beyond The ‘Yellow Line’

There is an invisible line dividing Gaza, and any Palestinian who attempts to cross it, or even get close to it, is killed. That is what happened to Ibrahim and Mazen al-Najjar, two men from the same family, on November 5th. Displaced in the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, they attempted to go to their home in the eastern part of Khan Younis, to attempt to retrieve some belongings. It was a simple enough task. The only problem was, their home lies behind the ‘yellow line’, which is the area of Gaza under full Israeli military control since the ceasefire on October 10.

Chris Hedges Report: The Member States Complicit In Genocide

After two years of genocide, it is no longer possible to hide complicity in Israel’s crimes against the Palestinians. Entire countries and corporations are — according to multiple reports by UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine Francesca Albanese — either directly or indirectly involved in Israel’s economic proliferation. In her latest report, “Gaza Genocide: a collective crime,” Albanese details the role 63 nations played in supporting Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians. She chronicles how countries like the United States, which directly funds and arms Israel, are a part of a vast global economic web.

Winter In Gaza

On Saturday, 8 November, 2025, Dan Perry wrote in The Jerusalem Post about Israel’s projected lifting of the media blockade on Gaza. Perry laments that Israeli censorship has left all reporting of the atrocity in the hands of Palestinians, who refuse to be silent. To date, Israel has assassinated over 240 Palestinian journalists. Perry writes: “The High Court ruled last week that the government must consider allowing foreign journalists into Gaza but also granted a one-month extension due to the still-unclear situation in the Strip.” He asserts that Israel had and has no motive for excluding foreign journalists save concern for their own protection.

US To Build Internment-Style Camps In Israeli-Controlled Gaza

US President Donald Trump's administration is advancing a controversial plan to build what US officials called “Alternate Safe Communities” for displaced Palestinians inside the Israeli-controlled areas in Gaza that make up half of the strip, The Atlantic reported on 10 November. According to The Atlantic, the initiative envisions a string of US-backed settlements for Palestinians screened and approved by Israel’s domestic intelligence service. Anyone – or their relatives – found to be affiliated with or supportive of Hamas would be barred from entry, effectively separating them from the majority still living under Hamas administration on the western side of what Israeli troops now call the “yellow line.”

US Replaces Israel As ‘Overseer’ Of Gaza Aid Deliveries

The US-led Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC), established by Washington last month, is replacing Israel as the “overseer” of humanitarian aid deliveries to the Gaza Strip, the Washington Post reported. According to informed sources, the first weeks of operations have been “chaotic and indecisive.” A US official said Israel remains “part of the conversation” but overall decisions will be made by the new center, established weeks ago in Kiryat Gat – a city just north of the besieged strip. “The move relegates Israel to a secondary role in determining how and what humanitarian relief can enter Gaza as CMCC takes the lead,” other familiar sources told the outlet. More than 40 countries are participating in the US-led center.
