US calls on Israel to tackle ‘catastrophic humanitarian crisis’ in Gaza

UNRWA worker looks at destruction in Gaza

Israel is not addressing the “catastrophic humanitarian crisis” in Gaza, the US envoy to the United Nations has said as a deadline imposed by Washington looms for the Israelis to improve the situation or face potential restrictions on military aid.

“Israel’s words must be matched by action on the ground,” Linda Thomas-Greenfield told the security council. “Right now, that is not happening. This must change – immediately.”

The US told Israel on 13 October that it must take steps within 30 days or face consequences including the potential stopping of US weapons transfers. “The US has stated clearly that Israel must allow food, medicine and other supplies into all of Gaza – especially the north, and especially as winter sets in – and protect the workers distributing it,” Thomas-Greenfield said.

University of Mississippi students hold Palestine vigil after racist counter-protests: ‘We fight for the living’

Palestine vigil at U of MississippiOn Sunday night, about 40 people gathered outside of city hall in Oxford, Mississippi, near the town’s famed statue of William Faulkner, in front of a Palestinian flag that read “Free Palestine”.

As more attendees arrived, organizers gave them electric tea candles and flowers to hold during the vigil, held for the estimated 42,000 Palestinians who have been killed since 7 October 2023. The event, organized by UMiss for Palestine, a student activist group at the University of Mississippi, marked a striking departure from its previous solidarity demonstration in May, which drew hundreds of counter-protesters, many of who spewed racist vitriol at the students.

Sunday’s event was reverent, with solemn expressions of grief and remembrance befitting a funeral. According to organizers, those who gathered did so to “honor the martyrs, commit to fight for the living, and stand in solidarity with Palestinians in [their] community and in the rest of the world”.

UK warns Russian strikes on Black Sea delay grain supplies to Palestinians, global south

Cargo ship on Black SeaRussia's increased attacks on the Black Sea ports in Ukraine are delaying vital aid reaching Palestinians and stopping crucial grain supplies from being delivered to the global south, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said late on Tuesday.

"Russia's indiscriminate strikes on ports in the Black Sea underscore that (Russian President Vladimir) Putin is willing to gamble on global food security in his attempts to force Ukraine into submission," Starmer said in a statement issued by his press office.
The United Nations said on Monday that Russian attacks on Ukrainian Black Sea ports have damaged six civilian vessels as well as grain infrastructure since Sept. 1, calling the ramp-up in strikes "distressing".
According to British Defence Intelligence, Starmer said, at least four merchant vessels have been struck by Russian munitions in the Black Sea between Oct. 5-14.
"(Putin) is harming millions of vulnerable people across Africa, Asia and the Middle East, to try and gain the upper hand in his barbaric war," Starmer said.

Anti-War Israelis Fear Speaking Up For Gaza. Over 100 Medical Workers Are Doing It Anyway.

Doctors in Israel demand end to genocide in GazaMore than 100 Israeli medical workers are voicing their opposition to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ongoing military offensive in Gaza, rebelling against what they describe is a widespread culture of silence and fear of punishment among Israelis who want the government to stop killing Palestinians in their name.

In a letter addressed to the White House and first obtained Tuesday by HuffPost, 117 medical workers in Israel expressed support for their colleagues in the United States who earlier this month demanded the Biden administration stop funding and arming the ongoing military offensive in Gaza. The American workers had all provided medical aid to Palestinians in Gaza at some point over the past year.

In the Jabalia refugee camp, my sister has reached breaking point. What will it take to stop this nightmare?

 Jabalia refugee camp nightmarey family is trapped in the Jabalia refugee camp, crammed into a space no larger than 1.4 sq km with more than 119,000 other refugees, with Israeli tanks stationed just 500m away. They are surrounded – drones constantly hovering above, snipers perched in every corner, always watching.

It’s worse than a nightmare, worse than dystopian fiction. My parents, my sister and her family, and my three brothers and their families haven’t left their house in days, except for a few desperate, terrifying attempts to find water. One time, by sheer luck, they managed to get some. Another time, they waited in line for more than eight agonising hours, only for the water to run out before they reached the front.
