In the old city, or Casco Viejo, bills addressing the #genocide are pasted on the facades between shop windows; "Boikota #Israel" (#BoycottIsrael) are widely sprayed on the walls of apartment blocks.
On the balconies of the colourful apartments overlooking the Nervion River, #Palestinian flags are draped from every second or third apartment.
Every flag that flutters in the wet breeze announces itself as proof of life.
The level of pro-#Palestine solidarity is unlike any other city I have visited in the western world over the course of the genocide.

During the trial, the prosecution alleged that the six defendants entered the factory with sledgehammers, intending, if needed, to injure and incapacitate security guards.
But the defendants disputed that the sledgehammers were “weapons of offence”, and insisted they were intended only to damage property.
As the verdicts were being read, the defendants held hands and embraced in the dock, as families and supporters cheered and wept.
The six defendants have been held for around 18 months on remand- exceeding standard #UK custodial time limits.

#Israel says it has found the body of the last Israeli captive left in #Gaza, amid local reports of heavy shelling and bulldozing during the search.
The Israeli army carried out extensive bulldozing operations in the area of al-Sanafour and around the al-Batsh cemetery, located east of Gaza City.
Several graves were desecrated during the search for Gvili, who was found east of Gaza City.
... #Hamas responded on Monday, saying it "exerted significant efforts in the search for the body of the last prisoner" and that it had provided Israel with “all the details and information in our posession regarding the location of the prisoner's remains”.

How Jared Kushner's Gaza plan would erase #Palestinian culture

A harrowing cartoon by Peter de Wit depicts parents sunbathing on an idyllic beach in #Gaza, while their toddler blissfully digs up skulls in the sand.
De Wit’s “Gaza Beach 2030” won the award for best political cartoon in the Netherlands last year.
Now, a plan unveiled by #Trump's son-in-law might just bring such a dystopian image to reality.
#JaredKushner, who serves as a #US special envoy, announced plans for a “New Gaza” - complete with shiny skyscrapers, coastal tourist attractions and entire districts dedicated to business and commerce.

Slow genocide: Death and displacement continue in Gaza months into ceasefire
Cancer patients, displaced families and children continue to die as aid, medicine and movement remain restricted by #Israel

Her plight reflects the wider crisis in #Gaza, where nearly two million people continue to live under dire conditions three months after the ceasefire.
After two years of Israeli bombardment, much of Gaza’s civilian infrastructure and public health system has been destroyed.
People had hoped the October ceasefire would bring some respite and a gradual path to recovery.
But with continued Israeli restrictions on border crossings, aid, and goods, residents feel the situation has merely shifted from an intense genocide to a slower-paced one.

Prisoners for #Palestine (PFP), a group that has been supporting the families and friends of the hunger strikers, said the action - which is considered to be largest since the 1981 Irish Republican hunger strike - had achieved a number of victories, with several key demands being met.
Claiming the cancellation of #Elbit's contract as a "resounding victory," it warned that the arms company's "days in #Britain are numbered".

Additionally, civil defence spokesperson Mahmoud Basal accused #Israel of restricting the entry of necessary shelter, caravans and construction materials into #Gaza, compounding the natural disaster unfolding in the territory.
"A new polar storm is approaching Gaza, and what lies ahead will be catastrophic," Basal warned, adding that the coming days will bring "preventable deaths".
The Government Media Office in the strip stressed in its latest press release on Tuesday that "Gaza is dying slowly", adding that more than 7,000 tents were swept away in the past two days due to the strong winds and heavy rain.

The foreign intervention Iranians want is the lifting of sanctions, experts say
Protests have grown increasingly violent, but most Iranians don't see the US and Israel as their saviours

The protests gripping #Iran are fuelled by immense economic pressures and frustration with the government, but with Iranians having felt #Israel's wrath and also seen what the #US did in Venezuela, their demands are not for foreign intervention, a slate of regional experts have said.
Speaking at an event hosted by the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft in Washington DC on Monday, the experts said that whilst there may be some voices that are outliers, most Iranians were looking for the international community to help lift crippling US #sanctions and begin a new path forward.
As genocide continues in Gaza, the West Bank is pushed into a new Nakba
#Israel's destruction of refugee camps in #Jenin and #Tulkarm is severing families from their homes, emptying communities and accelerating Palestinian erasure

Settlement expansion, settler attacks on farmers under the protection of Israeli forces, the routine theft of livestock, the destruction of village schools and homes and the forced displacement of Palestinians in the #EastJerusalem neighbourhoods of Sheikh Jarrah and Silwan all amount to systematic attempts to destroy, in whole or part, the #Palestinian people and their relationship to their ancient homeland.
During a recent visit to the northern #WestBank, I witnessed the physical destruction of refugee camps and was struck by how closely the lives of Palestinians there mirror the devastation faced by refugees in Gaza.

#Workers from Breads Bakery, a prominent #NewYorkCity bakery, announced their unionisation last week, calling for an end to the company’s “support of the #genocide happening in #Palestine,” and demanding better working conditions.
In the announcement, which was first delivered as a speech to the company’s CEO at the bakery’s flagship location, #union organisers decried the bakery’s “implicit and explicit” support for #Israel.
“We see our struggles for fair pay, respect, and safety as connected to struggles against #genocide and forces of exploitation around the world.”

In an article published in the Israeli newspaper #Haaretz on Friday, #EhudOlmert said that violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians wasn't just the work of fringe extremists but a coordinated campaign enabled by politicians, police and military authorities.
"There's no other way of defining what's happening in the territories except as a violent, murderous war," Olmert said, adding that attacks against Palestinians were "designed to lead gradually to ethnic cleansing and mass expulsion".

More than 50 international NGOs operating in occupied #Palestine have warned that recent registration measures imposed by #Israel are threatening to halt operations at a time of acute humanitarian need in #Gaza.
On 30 December, 37 NGOs received an official notification that their registrations would expire the next day, triggering a two-month period after which they would be required to cease operations in Gaza, as well as the occupied #WestBank and #EastJerusalem.
The ministry said the ban would also apply to those who "refused to submit a list of their Palestinian employees in order to rule out any links to terrorism".
