Israel’s Expanding ‘Yellow Line’ Swallows Gaza Districts

When Ahmed Hamed returned to his home in Gaza City after the ceasefire, it stood about 1.5km west of the so-called “Yellow Line” enforced by Israel. Two months on, that distance has shrunk to roughly 200 metres. “Before the war ended, our home was in a dangerous area, and it was difficult for us to return,” the 31-year-old Palestinian journalist told Middle East Eye. “We waited two weeks after the ceasefire to make sure it was safe.” Eventually, the family went back to their house near the Shujaiya neighbourhood in eastern Gaza City. Almost immediately, the sounds of war returned with them.

Chris Hedges Report: The Encampments

The ongoing genocide in Gaza has become a litmus test of institutional integrity. When a university denies the reality of Israel’s brutality, it reveals complicity with the genocidal regime’s actions. To then misrepresent campus dissent over institutional investment in the Zionist entity as illegitimate — or even “antisemitic” — makes it clear that that these institutions are invested in the existence of Israeli apartheid and genocide.

Palestine Activists Conducting Historic Hunger Strike Need Our Solidarity

Seven people, all being held on remand pending trial for allegedly taking action in solidarity with Palestine, are on hunger strike in British prisons. Their names are Qesser Zuhrah, Amu Gib, Heba Muraisi, Jon Cink, T Hoxha, Kamran Ahmed, and Muhammad Umer Khalid. An eighth prisoner, Lewie Chiaramello, who is diabetic, is also on a partial hunger strike, refusing food every other day at serious risk to his health. Today marks Day 40 without food for Qesser and Amu, who began the strike on November 2, the 108th anniversary of the Balfour Declaration.

Stop The Hate UK: The Shadowy Israel-Aligned Group Targeting Mintpress

A prolific writer who has penned 28 pro-Israel articles in the past two months alone, Sawer asked the British Palestinian journalist to respond to pro-Israel pressure group Stop The Hate U.K.’s campaign for him to be prosecuted for “anti-Semitic hate crimes.” Abul-Essad’s “crime” was attending an October 2024 demonstration in London protesting an event featuring former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert speaking on the future of Gaza – a case that the Metropolitan Police have already looked into and dismissed. Sawer has previous connections to Stop The Hate U.K.

YouTube And Big Tech Censorship Threatens Global Accountability

In a stark escalation undermining global efforts to preserve accountability for Israeli violations, Palestinian civil society organizations have been hit by an unprecedented campaign to erase their digital archives and silence their documentation work. What began as a U.S. political decision has now translated into sweeping and coordinated digital censorship, threatening decades of human rights documentation that formed the backbone of Palestinian legal submissions to international courts. For years, Palestinian human rights groups have meticulously collected evidence of Israeli abuses, from targeted killings and home demolitions to torture and violations against detainees.

Israel’s Continued Defiance Of World Court And United Nations

The United States pushed its resolution on Gaza through the United Nations Security Council on Nov. 17, moving forward on President Donald Trump’s purported peace plan while disregarding Israel’s violations of the ceasefire and despite its rejection of Palestinian statehood, a quintessential element of the U.S. resolution. Contrary to the pronouncements of the International Court of Justice, successive resolutions of the U.N. Security Council and General Assembly and even Trump’s Declaration for Enduring Peace and Prosperity, Israel is further entrenching its occupation in Gaza; exponentially expanding its illegal settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem; and publicly planning to annex significant parts of the Occupied Palestinian Territory.

Activists Picket Largest Civilian Weapons Warehouse For Israeli Military In US

Jersey City, NJ - On Friday, December 5 at 5:30 am over 50 anti-genocide activists picketed the G&B Packing warehouse in Jersey City. According to an explosive report by Progressive International and the Palestinian Youth Movement and an investigative feature by Dropsite News, both released on November 24. The warehouse, located at 1A Colony Road in Jersey City,  processes over 1,000 tons of military cargo shipped by ZIM and Maersk to the Zionist state every week in coordination with its logistics branch and sister company Interglobal Forwarding Services.

Go Tell It On The Mountain: Genocide Is Wrong

Israel and its partners continue to wage genocide against the Palestinian people. Those who, so far, have survived the hideous attacks since October 7, 2023, now face ongoing jeopardy. Hemmed in by yet another military border, over two million Palestinians in “East Gaza” live amid rubble, unexploded ordnance, decaying corpses, starvation conditions, and the uncertainties of inhabiting makeshift homes without sewage, sanitation, clean water, or protection against harsh winter weather. A saddening certainty was hammered home on November 17, 2025, when not a single country stood up for them at the United Nations.

Gazans Feel Little Relief From Israeli Strangulation Since Ceasefire

It’s been nearly two months since the ceasefire was reached in Gaza. Hopes were high among the 2 million Palestinians in the besieged Strip that not only would the Israeli bombings stop, but that everything they had been deprived of for the past two years – food, clean water, adequate medicine and healthcare – would flood into Gaza to ease their struggles. The hopes of regaining a fragment of the life they knew before the war, have dissipated, as the reality of a “new genocide” sets in. Though some aid has come into Gaza, and people have tried to restore some semblance of normalcy, the reality in Gaza is far from peacetime.

US Reconstruction Plans Threaten To Erase West Bank Refugee Camps

It has been well over 200 days since the people of the Tulkarem, Nur Shams, and Jenin refugee camps were forced out of their homes by the Israeli army during its offensive in the northern West Bank dubbed “Operation Iron Wall.” Over 40,000 Palestinians from these camps have been displaced for the past eleven months, many of them living in deplorable conditions, and without a clear return to their homes on the horizon. These thousands of families have been displaced within their own cities, and are totally reliant upon community resources for survival.

Microsoft Faces Reckoning For Assisting Israel’s Genocide In Gaza

Ahead of its annual shareholders meeting on December 5, Microsoft is coming under mounting pressure to reconsider its relationship with the Israeli military, which has used the tech giant’s products to carry out the genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing of the West Bank. In an open letter to the company released on Tuesday, December 2, an international coalition of legal aid groups said Microsoft and its executives potentially face legal liability for “aiding and abetting … atrocity crimes” committed by the Israeli military against Palestinian civilians. “Over the last few months, it has become exceedingly clear that Microsoft’s services and technologies have been used to violate Palestinian human rights, and shareholders should be aware of just how much this opens up the company to legal liability,” said Eric Sype, U.S. national organizer at 7amleh–The Arab Center for Social Media Advancement, in a statement on December 2.

International Workers Build ‘People’s Embargo’ Against Israeli Genocide

From the docks of Oakland to the ports of Morocco, from Italian logistics hubs to South African coal mines, an international movement is taking shape to do what governments have refused: Cut off the flow of weapons and fuel sustaining Israel’s assault on Gaza. On Nov. 22, labor organizers, Palestinian activists, and anti-war campaigners from six countries gathered online to launch the People’s Embargo for Palestine — a coordinated effort to leverage workers’ power at critical chokepoints in the global military supply chain. The webinar brought together a veteran of the anti-apartheid struggle with a new generation of organizers who have notched concrete victories over the past year.

Chris Hedges Report: How Palestinian History Is Systemically Forgotten

“How do we understand now if we don’t understand 1948 or 1917 or all the things that happened during the British Mandate?” This is a central question Micaela Sahhar, author and educator, asks while dissecting her book, Find Me at the Jaffa Gate. Sahhar reframes these monumental events in Palestinian history through an intimate, granular lens of her own family’s displacement during the 20th century. Sahhar joins host Chris Hedges on this episode of The Chris Hedges Report, sharing more personal narratives, revealing how her family lived through the pivotal moments that shaped modern Palestine.

Hundreds Of Western Artists Demand Freedom For Marwan Barghouti

Over two hundred prominent cultural figures have joined a global campaign advocating for the release of Palestinian political prisoner Marwan Barghouti, widely regarded as a unifying figure capable of reigniting a viable path to Palestinian statehood. Writers Margaret Atwood, Philip Pullman, Zadie Smith, and Annie Ernaux joined actors Ian McKellen, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tilda Swinton, and Mark Ruffalo, along with public figures such as Gary Lineker and Richard Branson, in signing an open letter urging Barghouti’s freedom. The statement expresses “grave concern at the continuing imprisonment of Marwan Barghouti, his violent mistreatment and denial of legal rights whilst imprisoned,” and calls on governments and the UN to actively work for his release.

How The Pro-Palestine Movement Is Outsmarting The Algorithms

For Nour Omar, a student in Cairo with 5,000 Instagram followers, reposting news about the genocide in Gaza is the smallest thing she can do that still feels like something. Usually, her posts draw hundreds of views an hour.  On a Tuesday night in November 2023, a few weeks after an Israeli airstrike on Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City killed at least 471 Palestinians, she posted three Instagram Stories in a row: a slide naming the dead from the hospital attack, a 12-second Reel of rooftops sheared open and a hospital donation link tagged #CeasefireNow.
