    UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric warned Wednesday that ongoing Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip are having a devastating toll on civilians, Anadolu reports.

    “Our colleagues at the Office of the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) warned that Israeli operations, including shelling and bombing across the Strip, continue to have a devastating impact on civilians, reportedly killing and injuring scores of people, many of whom were just seeking aid,” Dujarric told reporters.

    He said Israeli authorities continue to restrict the delivery of fuel into and throughout the enclave, “effectively choking off” life-saving services for deprived and starving people.

    The UN and its partners on Tuesday attempted to coordinate 15 humanitarian movements inside Gaza, but only four were fully facilitated by the Israeli authorities, he said.

    “Seven other attempts were denied outright, preventing teams from trucking water, retrieving broken trucks or repairing roads. Another four missions were initially approved but then impeded on the ground – although one was ultimately accomplished today. Another mission had to be cancelled by the organizers,” the spokesman added.

    The UN has been “extremely vocal, extremely transparent, extremely animated” about the suffering of the people of Gaza, Dujarric stressed.

    Rejecting international calls for a ceasefire, the Israeli army has pursued a brutal offensive against Gaza since October 2023, killing over 56,100 Palestinians, most of them women and children.

    Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Premier Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

    Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.

    Glastonbury co-organiser Emily Eavis has offered her stance on the ongoing debate about Kneecap’s scheduled performance at Glastonbury Festival this week.

    Bandmate Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, 27, of Belfast, was charged with a terrorism offence under the name Liam O’Hanna after allegedly displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah at a London show last year.

    The band – who have publicly spoken out against Israel’s ongoing military campaign in Gaza – recently called the terrorism charge a “distraction”.

    Some, including Tory leader Kemi Badenoch, have since called for the band to be pulled from the festival. UK prime minister Keir Starmer said this week that their performance would not be “appropriate”.

    …

    Pushed for her reaction to Starmer’s comments, Eavis insisted: “There have been a lot of really heated topics this year, but we remain a platform for many, many artists from all over the world and, you know, everyone is welcome here.”

    The problem is of course: How on Earth have we tolerated him so far?

    He actively supports Israel’s Gaza genocide. How on Earth have we let him get away with it for so long?

    It’s been all about keeping super-rich cnuts super rich by having manufactured disagreements that cause wars and the resulting stupendous profits for the super rich bstards who facilitated and managed those wars into being. Why are they committing genocide? We have to stop them and hold them to account.

    ed: It’s much more that that. The immediate issue is that we have stop the genocide in Gaza. I am suggesting that in the UK, we can’t accept a genocidalist government and have to depose them immediately. It is totally unacceptable that they are active participants in genocide. That cannot be tolerated and as a consequence we have to depose them.

    later: Genocidalists and genocidal facilitators – so I’m referring to states and state enablers e.g. police, army – must be held to account. We can’t tolerate human rights abusers, Fascists.

    ed: We can’t accept the UK government actively participating in genocide, facilitating Israel’s genocide by providing RAF surveillance flights, training the Israeli army and providing arms. The UK government’s active participation in genocide is intolerable.

    ed: There is a crisis. We can’t accept this government actively participating in genocide. Please note that is more than complicity, it is active participation. Keir Starmer’s UK government has actively supported Israeli genocide and Israel’s continuing genocide.

    ed: Genocidalists and human rights abusers are not acceptable as UK ministers or prime ministers.
