The Commissioner-General of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Philippe Lazzarini, announced on Tuesday that the agency has begun offering online lessons aimed at reaching around 300,000 children in the Gaza Strip.

Lazzarini explained that UNRWA is expanding its Back to Learning programme in Gaza through a combination of online and in-person education, despite the difficult humanitarian conditions in the territory.

He noted that “more than 25,000 children have now joined our ‘Temporary Learning Spaces’,” stressing, “We will continue increasing the number of such locations.”

Lazzarini emphasised that “literacy and education serve as an antidote to despair and trauma” experienced by children in Gaza.

He praised the efforts of thousands of UNRWA teachers and staff who continue their work despite daily challenges.

He added that the continuation of these programmes reflects UNRWA’s success in fulfilling its humanitarian and developmental mission towards Palestinian refugees under the most difficult circumstances.

US arms firm secures ban on Palestine protests in Britain

Court documents reveal aerospace firm Moog has obtained an injunction against protesters in Britain and even consulted the police about Declassified.

A US arms firm has launched legal action against pro-Palestine activists in Britain, it can be revealed.

Court documents show Moog, which makes military aircraft parts and has links to Israel’s arms trade, applied for an injunction in September to prevent protests at its UK sites.

The application, which was granted by the High Court, sought to stop “persons unknown” who “for the purpose of protest enter occupy or remain on” the firm’s facilities across Britain.

Moog returned to court earlier this month and obtained a wider injunction to cover interference with “access to or egress from that land and premises”. 

This means protesters are barred from blocking traffic around entrances and exits and face risk of arrest on public land adjacent to the company’s sites.

Moog requested the injunction after its factory in Wolverhampton was targeted by a direct-action group named “Palestinian Martyrs for Justice”.

In August, four members of that group crashed through the factory’s gates and smashed its rooftop, allegedly causing over £1m in damage. 

Amnesty International warns “these injunctions are created solely to intimidate people”

Amnesty International said it was “seriously concerned by the development of so-called ‘persons unknown injunctions’ by the British courts, and their impact on peaceful protest rights”.

Its UK law and human rights director Tom Southerden told Declassified: “Such injunctions are routinely issued for companies, landowners and public authorities without any opposition, anyone putting the counter arguments or anyone testing the evidence that the applicants seek to rely on. 

“They bring with them hugely inflated punishments for acts of protest, as breaching them constitutes contempt of court.

“Potentially even worse are the financial risks faced by anyone caught up in them, who face the prospect of having to pay the legal costs of major multinational corporations, leading to people losing their homes and being made bankrupt. 

“These injunctions are created solely to intimidate people into not protesting and urgently need to be curtailed”.

Netanyahu Blows Up Ceasefire, Ordering ‘Powerful Strikes’ on Gaza

Israel accused Hamas of breaking the US-brokered ceasefire in a manner in which no one was physically harmed. Gaza officials say Israel has violated the truce 125 times, killing or wounding hundreds of Palestinians.

Following Israel’s 125 reported violations of the October 10 Gaza ceasefire in attacks that have killed or wounded hundreds of Palestinians, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday ordered “powerful strikes” in response to an alleged Hamas breach of the deal in which no one was physically harmed.

Netanyahu’s office said the right-wing prime minister instructed the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to immediately carry out the attacks on the flattened strip, where two years of genocidal war and siege have left at least 248,000 Palestinians dead, maimed, or missing, hundreds of thousands of others starving; and the vast majority of Gaza’s more than 2 million people forcibly displaced.

Israel said the decision to escalate came after IDF invaders—none of whom were reportedly harmed—came under fire in southern Gaza, and amid Israeli anger over alleged Hamas subterfuge regarding the return of bodily remains from an Israeli hostage abducted during the October 7, 2023 attack.

Netanyahu’s announcement also came on the same day that the prime minister appeared in a Jerusalem court to continue his testimony in his ongoing trial for alleged fraud, breach of trust, and bribery. His testimony was cut off three hours early due to unspecified “security developments.” Critics, including relatives of hostages, have accused Netanyahu of unnecessarily prolonging the war in order to further delay his trial. The prime minister denies any wrongdoing.

Hamas said it would respond to Israel’s escalation by delaying the handover of the remaining 13 dead hostages it either holds or is trying to locate. The armed resistance group, which governs Gaza, said Tuesday it had recovered the body of another hostage.

The Gaza Government Media Office responded to Israel’s accusation of Hamas ceasefire violations by noting what it said are 125 incidents in which Israeli forces broke the truce, “resulting in the killing of 94 Palestinians and the injury of more than 344 others.”

Israeli violations of the current ceasefire include several massacres, such as the October 18 bombing of a bus that killed at least 11 members of the Abu Shaaban family, who were trying to return to inspect their home in Gaza City. Among the victims were three women and seven children ages 5-13.

Israel was also accused of nearly 1,000 violations of the previous ceasefire earlier this year—breaches that officials said left at least 116 civilians dead and nearly 500 others wounded.

There has been scant reporting of Israeli ceasefire breaches in the US corporate media. In a glaring act of apparently selective inattention, the Associated Press on Tuesday called Netanyahu’s strike order “a new test for the US-brokered ceasefire.”

Gaza humanitarian crisis continues to worsen

Spread the love

https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/gaza-humanitarian-crisis-continues-worsen

 Tents for displaced Palestinians stand amid the destruction caused by the Israeli air and ground offensive in Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City, October 22, 2025

THE humanitarian crisis experienced by Palestinians in Gaza continues to worsen despite the ceasefire, according to aid workers today.

The World Health Organisation says more than 15,000 patients are waiting to be evacuated from Gaza — including 3,800 children. But the evacuation appears to have been blocked by Israel.

WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus posted on social media that the United Nations body has so far managed to evacuate 41 critical patients out of Gaza. But Israel has continued to keep the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt closed.

The continued close comes even though the ceasefire deal says the crossing would open for the movement of people.

This comes a day after the International Court of Justice said Israel must allow the UN aid agency in Gaza (UNRWA) to provide humanitarian assistance to the territory that has been largely destroyed by the Israelis.

The UN general assembly asked the court last year to give an advisory opinion on Israel’s legal obligations after the country effectively banned UNRWA, the main provider of aid to Gaza, from operating in the territory.

Israel “is under the obligation to agree to and facilitate relief schemes provided by the United Nations and its entities, including UNRWA,” the court’s president, Yuji Iwasawa, said.

Israel has denied it has violated international law, saying the court’s proceedings are biased, and did not attend hearings in April.

US President Donald Trump said he would decide whether to push for the release of imprisoned Palestinian leader Marwan Barghouti, a figure many see as capable of uniting Palestinians behind a two-state solution, Anadolu reports.

“I am literally being confronted with that question about 15 minutes before you called … That was my question of the day,” Trump told Time magazine in an interview published Thursday. “So, I’ll be making a decision.”

The comments came as Trump discussed Palestinian leadership, saying Palestinians “don’t have a leader right now, at least a visible leader.”

When asked about Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s potential role in post-war Gaza governance, Trump said, “I’ve always gotten along with him. I’ve always found him reasonable, but he’s probably not.”

Barghouti is a prominent Fatah leader often called the “Palestinian Mandela” for his influence and leadership qualities.

He was arrested by Israel in 2002 and sentenced to five life terms plus 40 years for allegedly directing deadly attacks against Israelis.

Barghouti tops most polls among Palestinians for whom they would vote for in a presidential election, making him a potentially unifying figure for a two-state solution.
