Germany: Critics Of The Government Are Losing Their Bank Accounts

The German Communist Party (DKP) announced earlier this month that several associated bank accounts (including that of the party executive) will be terminated as of December 31, 2025. The reasons for the account termination remain unclear and the act in itself raises more questions than answers. The case has also drawn attention to a trend in Germany that appears to be resurfacing more and more: attacks on the material foundations of actors who criticize the German government, and especially its policies on war.

UK Police Arrest Greta Thunberg Over Palestine Action Support

Climate activist Greta Thunberg was arrested in central London on 23 December during a demonstration supporting imprisoned Palestine Action members, who doctors warn are at “imminent risk of death,” due to a weeks-long hunger strike. City of London Police detained the 22-year-old under Section 13 of the Terrorism Act 2000 for displaying a placard backing the proscribed organization. Video footage captured by Prisoners for Palestine shows Thunberg holding a sign. It read: "I support the Palestine Action prisoners. I oppose genocide."

Embargo Movement Exposes Oakland Airport’s Role In Weapons Shipments To Israel

Unions and community organizations demonstrated at the Port of Oakland on Dec. 18 as part of an ongoing campaign to demand an embargo on the shipment of weapons to Israel from both the city’s sea port and air port (OAK). The Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM), in coordination with The People’s Embargo for Palestine (PEP), released a report titled “Exposing Oakland’s Military Cargo Shipments to Israel” last August. They were horrified to discover that Oakland, California, a city with a progressive history of solidarity with Palestine, had become one of the most frequent departure points for shipping F-35 bomber components to Israel.

Elbit Factory Shut Down For A Second Time In Two Weeks

A group of protesters have shut down the entrance to a factory belonging to Elbit Systems. The halt of Israel’s weapons supplier is one of the key demands of the anti-genocide activists. Eight prisoners, all being held on remand for allegedly taking action in solidarity with Palestine, have been on open ended hunger strike since the 2 November in British prisons. This is the biggest coordinated prison hunger strike in UK prisons since the 1981 H-block strike in the North of Ireland. Six of the hunger strikers have been hospitalised so far. Despite the enormity of the strike, the media coverage has been minimal, and the government fails to respond.

Holiday Shoppers Are Flexing Political Power Through Boycotts

For 38 weeks straight, racial justice protesters have been gathering outside a Target in Washington, D.C. to call out the company for suspending its Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts, aligning itself with the Trump administration’s attacks on DEI. To put additional pressure on the company, those advocates have been calling for “Target fasts,” in which people completely abstain from purchasing anything from Target. The boycott began in February, following Target’s suspension of DEI efforts, and was initiated by Until Freedom, a nonprofit organization dedicated to community activism and rapid response.

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.

La Via Campesina Condemns Attacks Against Member Organisation In Palestine

On the first of December, the Israeli occupation forces raided the offices of La Via Campesina’s member organization in Ramallah and Hebron. Military units have sealed off the entire area, blocking all roads leading to the offices and preventing any movement toward the sites. The forces have detained our members inside the buildings, subjecting them to harsh and humiliating treatment, while conducting violent searches throughout the premises. Several of the members have been arrested and are now detained. The raid included the destruction and confiscation of all office contents, including computers, hard drives, administrative files, financial documents, and logistical equipment.

Europe Marks International Day Of Solidarity With Palestine

The Palestine solidarity movement in Europe again brought record numbers to the streets on the UN’s International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, November 29, reaffirming demands for an end to government complicity in the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the occupation of Palestine. Hundreds of thousands marched across the region, with demonstrations in London and Rome each reaching an estimated 100,000 participants. “On this day, people around the world express their support for the inalienable rights that are currently denied to Palestinians: the right to live free from discrimination, the right to self-determination, and the right to return to their lands,” the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC) wrote on social media.

The Ontario Federation Of Labour Adopts ‘Hot Cargo’ Resolution

The Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) became the fourth Canadian labour federation to adopt a hot cargo resolution against Israeli goods last week. The resolution has the OFL declare trade relationships and services with Israel to be “hot cargo” that workers will not touch. “Hot cargo” is used to define goods that workers will not handle due to its association with exploitation or oppression. The New Brunswick Federation of Labour was the first to adopt a resolution supporting the boycott of Israel when it passed a resolution against handling weapons bound for Israel in May. Since then, three other provincial federations of labour have taken similar actions in Nova Scotia, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Ontario.

November 29 Is UN International Day Of Solidarity With Palestinians

Solidarity movements with Palestine have made important gains in the past few months. Labour for Palestine reports that labour federations in Ontario, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland and Labrador all recently passed Hot Cargo resolutions – making the cutting of all services and relationships with Israel including with the Israeli labour group, Histradut, union policy. The Jewish Faculty Network published The CIJA Report, a scathing indictment of the Centre for Israel and Jewish affairs (CIJA) for its anti-Palestinian Racism and genocide denial.

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.

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.

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.

Join Us In Italy To Support The Nationwide Strike Against Israel

Western nations will do nothing to halt Israel’s ongoing slaughter of Palestinians. They will do nothing to alleviate the hunger and disease that is decimating Palestinians in Gaza. Our nations have been, and remain, full partners in the genocide. They will remain partners until the genocide reaches its grim conclusion. Unless we stop them. At least 242 Palestinians in Gaza have been killed by Israel since the “ceasefire” was announced. The first major ceasefire breach led to Israeli airstrikes that killed more than 100 Palestinians, including 46 children, and wounded 150 others.

Football Fans March In Support As Palestine Plays First European Match

Thousands marched in support of Palestine in the Spanish city of Bilbao as Palestinian footballers played their first European match against the Basque Country team. The Basque Country team beat the Palestine team 3-0 in the friendly match, which was marked by shows of solidarity between both teams. Palestinians and the Basque have long shared political sympathies, with both involved in nationalist struggles for independence. The two teams celebrated side by side, arms around each other, on the San Mames pitch in front of more than 50,000 spectators.
