Finally Free: The Last Three Head Home And Ask You To Keep Mobilizing

June 16, 2025 Freedom Flotilla. , , , ,
Occupied Palestine — The Freedom Flotilla Coalition confirms that all the international human rights defenders and journalists that were aboard the civilian aid ship Madleen are now en route home. The twelve were forcibly abducted and detained by Israeli forces while attempting to break Israel’s illegal and inhumane siege of Gaza and deliver humanitarian aid to its besieged population. The last three detained Freedom Flotilla volunteers, Marco van Rennes, Pascal Maurieras, and Yanis Mhamdi, were released from Israeli detention this morning and have begun their return to their home countries via the Jordanian border.

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.

Maersk Faces Growing Pressure For Supporting Israel’s Genocide In Gaza

June 13, 2025 Ana Vračar, People's Dispatch. , , , , , ,
On June 11, hundreds of activists from Jewish Voice for Peace and the Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) occupied the lobby of shipping giant Maersk’s headquarters in New York to protest the company’s ongoing involvement in, and support for, Israel’s genocide in Gaza. The action followed the release of a new PYM report documenting Maersk’s deep involvement in the global supply chain of F-35 fighter jets, which are routinely used to bomb schools, hospitals, and refugee camps in Palestine. “Maersk has shipped the wings for every Israeli F-35 delivered since at least March 2022, including those for five additional Israeli F-35s scheduled for delivery by 2028,” the report states.

European Dockworkers Refuse To Load Weapons Aimed At Palestine

June 13, 2025 Rafeef Ziadah and Katy Fox-Hodess, Labor Notes. , , , , , , ,
On June 4, in response to the unfolding genocide in Gaza, France’s CGT dockworkers refused to load arms components bound for Israel at the country’s largest port in Fos-Marseille. Their action forced the ship to leave port without its deadly cargo. Across Europe, dockers carried on the fight. In Genoa, Italian dockworkers pledged to inspect the same vessel and block it if weapons were found. At the Italian ports of Salerno and Scilla, the ship sparked protests. Sophie Binet, the CGT’s national secretary-general, called on the French government to immediately halt arms deliveries to Israel.

Over 150,000 Protest Across Europe Against Gaza Blockade

June 11, 2025 Ana Vračar, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , ,
Tens of thousands of people joined protests across Europe demanding the release of the Freedom Flotilla crew aboard the vessel Madleen and calling on their governments to take immediate action to ensure the delivery of essential supplies to the Gaza Strip. Demonstrations took place in dozens of cities across Britain, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, Spain, France, and beyond, just hours after Israeli occupation forces abducted Madleen and confiscated its humanitarian cargo. Protesters condemned the silence of European governments and institutions regarding the flotilla’s mission and the crew’s ordeal, warning that they once again failed to hold Israel accountable for its violations of international law.

Dartmouth Students Launch Hunger Strike In Support Of Gaza

June 11, 2025 Michael Arria, Mondoweiss. , , , , , ,
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.

Legal Actions Target Airbnb Listings In Illegal Israeli Settlements

June 11, 2025 By Global Legal Action Network. , , , , , , ,
Did you know that there are currently over 300 properties listed for rent on Airbnb that are situated in Israel’s illegal settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, as well as Palestinian refugee properties that were taken during the Nakba? In November 2018, Airbnb promised to “act responsibly” and remove all listings in the illegal settlements, but just a few months later, in April 2019, it shamefully reversed the decision. Even following the ruling by the International Court of Justice in July 2024, that Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territory is illegal and that all States must prevent trade or investment that support the occupation – Airbnb's listings in the settlements continue.

Israeli Forces Detain Freedom Flotilla Activists

June 10, 2025 Adalah. , , , ,
Adalah – The Legal Center for Arab Minority Rights in Israel has sent an urgent legal letter to Israeli authorities demanding information on the whereabouts of the 12 activists forcibly detained after Israeli naval forces unlawfully seized the Madleen, a vessel sailing as part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition. Israeli forces intercepted the Madleen in international waters at around 3:00 a.m. Israel time on 9 June 2025, and contact with the activists was lost. This peaceful civilian mission sought to break Israel’s illegal blockade of Gaza, enforced as part of a broader policy of engineered starvation and an ongoing 20-month-long genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.

In Solidarity With Gaza, La Via Campesina Joins Convoy To Rafah

June 10, 2025 La Via Campesina - EN. , , , , , , ,
The overland “Steadfastness” Convoy to break the siege on Gaza will depart from Tunisia on the morning of Monday, June 9, 2025, under the slogan: “The chains must be broken.” The convoy will travel through Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt, with the goal of reaching the Rafah crossing. As a member of La Via Campesina’s Arab and North Africa Region, the Association of the Million Rural Women and Landless (MRWL) is a key partner in the organization, support, and mobilization for this popular overland convoy. The convoy coincides with the Global March to Gaza and the Freedom Flotilla, where freedom-loving people from around the world will gather at Rafah on June 14, 2025, in solidarity with the Palestinian cause.

The French Resistance To Israel’s Genocide In Palestine

June 7, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , ,
French dock workers in Fos-sur-Mer, near Marseille, are blocking the shipment of military equipment bound for Israel, protesting the Israeli military's ongoing genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, France 24 reported on 6 June. The action, led by members of the CGT trade union, halted the loading of 19 pallets of bullet links—metal components used to enable rapid machine gun fire—onto a cargo vessel on Thursday. Christophe Claret, a union representative, confirmed that the shipment was identified and set aside after workers were notified of its contents. "Once dockers refuse to load a shipment, no one else can do it for them," Claret told AFP. The remaining cargo for the vessel was loaded as scheduled.

From Media Darling To Persona Non Grata: Greta Thunberg’s Journey

June 7, 2025 Alan MacLeod, MintPress News. , , , , ,
Once the favored child of the establishment, Greta Thunberg has been dropped by the global elite. A MintPress News study finds that coverage of Thunberg in The New York Times and Washington Post has dwindled from hundreds of articles per year to barely a handful, precisely as she widens her focus from the environment to the capitalist system that is causing climate breakdown, and the Israeli attack on Gaza, which the Swedish activist has labeled a “genocide.” Greta Thunberg was once a media darling. Organizing a climate strike at her local school when she was just fifteen, she shot to fame and was quickly embraced by the establishment. In 2019, she was invited to the European Union Parliament and received a standing ovation from the politicians and diplomats in attendance.

Sign On: Campaign Against Ongoing ‘Israeli’ Aggression On Lebanon

June 6, 2025 Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement. , , , , ,
The Masar Badil, the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement, has launched a global popular campaign against the ongoing “Israeli” aggression on Lebanon and in response to the policy of assassinations and Zionist violations of the ceasefire agreement. The campaign inaugurated its first activities by launching an international petition, which states: “We, the liberation movements, organizations, parties, associations, and solidarity forces signing below, firmly condemn the repeated Zionist aggression against the Lebanese people and the cowardly Israeli policy of assassinations targeting leaders of the Lebanese resistance in broad daylight, with open support from U.S. and imperialist powers in the region and the world.”

If We Don’t Act Now, We’ll Be Complicit In Annihilation Of Palestinians

June 5, 2025 Lynn Ruane, TheJournal.ie. , , , , ,
I was privileged to be in Catania over the past week to see the Madleen embark on its mission to deliver vital humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. The Madleen is one of the boats of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, which hopes to bring about an end to Israel’s blockade of Gaza. The boat departed Sicily on Sunday carrying a dozen activists along with food, medicine and other supplies. Two million Gazans have suffered under siege by Israel for many months now. I arrived at the port and was met with a feeling of hope, care and bravery. There is no freedom without solidarity, and the Freedom Flotilla is solidarity.

The Freedom Flotilla: Bravely Breaking The Siege Against Gaza

June 4, 2025 Margaret Knapke, Foreign Policy In Focus. , , , , , ,
Many people, armed only with moral and political convictions, would be too intimidated to confront an army or navy directly. But not all. Twelve nonviolent human-rights activists with the international Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) are currently sailing a small boat, the Madleen, to Gaza. They hope to create a humanitarian sea corridor through Israel’s illegal blockade. If all goes well, they should arrive this weekend, with “baby formula, flour, rice, diapers, women’s sanitary products, water desalination kits, medical supplies, crutches, and children’s prosthetics.” They know the danger.

Sydney’s Red Wave Of Resistance Calls For End To Israel’s Genocide

June 4, 2025 Apurva Chaudhry, People's Dispatch. , , , , , , ,
The major Australian city of Sydney saw one of its largest pro-Palestine rallies to date when a sea of red flowed through the streets in the heart of the city. On June 1, thousands of Australians holding Palestinian flags and placards marched outside Town Hall in Sydney’s central business district (CBD) against Israel’s actions in Gaza. On the same day as the protest, over 30 Palestinians were shot while seeking aid in Gaza, and the region’s only dialysis hospital in the north was destroyed. Meanwhile, mediators Qatar and Egypt renewed talks for a 60-day truce. The demonstration in Sydney began with a stream of fiery speeches by the organizers of the mobilization, including leaders from the Palestinian diaspora, student and teacher activists, and the Indigenous Aboriginal activists of Australia.
