UNITED NATIONS experts have demanded action by the international community to end Israel’s violations of the Gaza ceasefire.
They warned on Monday that continuing attacks on Palestinians in Gaza threaten to derail the fragile truce.
The UN rapporteurs said in a statement that since the ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian resistance group Hamas took effect on October 10, Israeli forces have committed at least 393 violations, killing 339 Palestinians, including over 70 children and injuring more than 870.
A massive Israeli air attack on October 28, which killed at least 104 Palestinians, made it the deadliest night since the truce officially began, the experts said.
The 20 experts who signed the statement include Francesca Albanese, special rapporteur on Palestine, George Katrougalos, independent expert on the the promotion of a democratic and equitable international order, and Ashwini KP, special rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance.
The signatories warned that despite the ceasefire, humanitarian access remains critically limited, with only two of six crossings open, aid deliveries far beneath the agreed targets and hospitals in desperate need of supplies and equipment.
The experts said: “The ongoing Israeli attacks against the Palestinian population in Gaza constitute a blatant violation of the ceasefire agreement.”
Keir Starmer objects to criticism of the IDF. He asks how could anyone object to them starving people to death, forced marches like the Nazis did, bombing Gaza’s hospitals and universities, mass-murdering journalists, healthworkers and starving people queuing for food, killing and raping prisoners and murdering children. He calls for people to stop obstructing his genocide for Israel.Orcas discuss Genocide-supporting and complicit Zionists.

He also confirms the UK government’s support for Israel’s Gaza genocide and the UK government and military’s active participation in genocide.
Reacting to the Autumn Budget statement delivered by the chancellor Rachel Reeves today, Green Party Treasury spokesperson, Adrian Ramsay MP, said:
“Instead of delivering a transformational Budget to tax extreme wealth fairly and tackle the cost-of-living crisis, this Labour Government has once again chosen to paper over the cracks – with half-measures that won’t do enough to fix the deep-rooted problems in our economy that are keeping ordinary people in poverty while the super-rich get richer.
“The Chancellor spoke about asking everyone to make a contribution, but it is frankly inexcusable that she has made the political choice to squeeze households already struggling with the cost of essentials, whilst letting multimillionaires and billionaires off the hook.
“It is indefensible that the Chancellor is cutting vital home insulation funding, one of the best ways to lower bills.
“And whilst scrapping the cruel two-child benefit cap will be a huge relief to families across the country, it is unforgivable that it has taken 18 months for the Chancellor to acknowledge the terrible harm and distress this cap has caused to so many families. Far more action is needed to end the scandal of child poverty.”
Neo-Fascist Climate Science Denier Donald Trump says Burn, Baby, Burn.
The commitment was no new oil or gas extraction. Chancellor Rachel Reeves is expected to abandon that today by announcing new oil and gas extraction in the North Sea. There will be some BS explaining that it’s somehow not new when of course it is. This was expected from these shits (they abandon all their commitments) from the expansion of airports and possibly allowing the huge Rosebank proposed oil field.
Ed Miliband is a useful idiot pretending that the Labour Party have a responsible climate policy which is shown to be untrue and they’re just climate wrecking shits like other right-wingers.
Elon Musk urges you to be a Fascist like him, says that you can ignore facts and reality then.Nigel Farage urges you to ignore facts and reality and be a climate science denier like him and his Deputy Richard Tice. He says that Reform UK has received £Millions and £Millions from the fossil fuel industry to promote climate denial and destroy the planet.

A news report by AlJazeera this week stated that Israel violated the ceasefire 497 times in 44 days since 10 October. Lauded by the international community, the ceasefire was supposed to bring an end to airstrikes, starvation and allow the delivery of humanitarian aid, as well as the return of Palestinians to the rubble of their homes in Gaza. But ceasefire in diplomatic rhetoric falls even short of a veneer as Israel continues its genocide with a slower pace.
Israel can further violate the ceasefire with UN Resolution 2803, which places the US in control of Gaza for Israel’s colonial expansionist plans. Israel – a genocidal entity that has violated the ceasefire hundreds of times – determines the coordination of the US plan. Which means that as a reward for committing genocide, Israel gets the freedom to determine the pace of genocide, now that the worst has been normalised.
Even mainstream media is reporting on Israel’s ceasefire violations. Two weeks ago, the BBCnoted that Israel destroyed over 1,500 buildings in Gaza since the ceasefire came into effect, although it also made sure to add the comments of an unnamed Israeli military spokesperson saying that Israel was acting “in accordance with the ceasefire framework”.
According to the US, there was no genocide in Gaza. According to the Palestinian people and the majority of the world’s people, there is genocide in Gaza and there is no ceasefire in Gaza. What term does one coin for a non-existent ceasefire? Or a ceasefire that only exists in diplomatic agreements that provide impunity for Israel’s genocide?
What will the non-existent ceasefire mean in terms of Gaza’s reconstruction and military occupation amid a normalised, slow-paced genocide? There is talk of partitioning Gaza, but the likelihood of colonial expansion is even greater. And all is happening under the guise of a ceasefire with no validity and no implementation.
The only time we should be uttering the word ceasefire is to point out that there is no ceasefire. Other than that, the entire world should be pointing out that Israel is continuing its colonial expansion through genocide. Ceasefire rhetoric is an imposition upon Palestinians. It renders them defenceless just as much as the genocide did. The Israeli military now controls 53 per cent of Gaza. What did Zionist leaders do when they were granted 55 per cent of Palestine? History is repeating itself and the international community is concealing evident links under ceasefire rhetoric.
As the international community does its best to fade Israel’s genocide into oblivion, so will Gaza be depleted. The UN will continue with its statistical data, possibly since the “ceasefire”, thus marking an end to what is actually a continuation. And the usual terminology, linked to the non-existent ceasefire, such as humanitarian aid, food, displacement, education, Israel killing Palestinians, will once again be classified as individual violations of international law, instead of actions contributing to an ongoing ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from their land. The ceasefire does not exist, the Nakba never ended, and it is incumbent upon the UN, particularly given its complicity with colonialism, to join the dots for the rest of the world and finally divulge what a travesty it has created out of human rights and international law.

Heavy rains have submerged dozens of tents sheltering displaced Palestinians in the southern Gaza Strip amid bad weather conditions in the enclave, witnesses said Tuesday.
Several tents were destroyed by rainfall in al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, while others were blown away by strong winds in the area, they told Anadolu.
“The situation in the city is extremely catastrophic due to the destruction of most roads, water, and sewage networks by the Israeli war,” Saib Luqan, a spokesman for Khan Younis Municipality, told Anadolu.
According to local authorities, the Israeli army has destroyed 220,000 linear meters of road networks over the past two years.
Nearly 900,000 people in Khan Younis are currently facing “tragic and grim” conditions due to bad weather conditions, Luqan said.
The spokesman added that municipal teams are working with insufficient equipment to help displaced civilians affected by the bad weather.
According to the Gaza Government Media Office, 1.5 million Palestinians are displaced in Gaza, living in catastrophic conditions with little access to basic necessities and severely limited essential services due to Israel’s ongoing blockade.
Since October 2023, the Israeli army has killed nearly 70,000 people in Gaza, mostly women and children, and injured more than 170,900 people in the two-year war that has left much of the enclave in ruins.
