The wife of Palestine’s national team former goalkeeper Abdullah Shaqfa has been killed in an Israeli attack on tents in Al-Mawasi, Gaza. A footballer mourning his wife under the rubble. If he wasn’t Palestinian, this would be all over the news.

Israel murdered a Reuters journalist. In a hospital. As rescue workers tried to recover his body, Israel murdered them. Live on TV. Along with three more journalists. Apparently "it's complicated".

What's extraordinary about this story is the Israelis didn't even bother to remove evidence of execution - bound hands, blindfolds - before handing the bodies back. Impunity.

Maccabi Tel Aviv fans were filmed chanting racist, genocidal slogans. They were also reportedly attacking local Muslims. For the BBC to fail to mention this in its reporting of the violence in Amsterdam last night is disgraceful. Sky the same. /1

The home of one of the assassinated Iranian commanders was hit during last night’s Israeli strike. The missile pierced the wall and exploded in the bedroom.

It is simply unbelievable what we are witnessing here. What is the matter with the Western world? The US could put a stop to this in 2 minutes.

The crime of starvation is unfolding before the eyes of the world. People choose to die by bullets outside the Israeli-American hunger engineering centers rather than from starvation. So far, no fewer than 1,000 starving Palestinians have been killed outside these centers.

Thank you, thank you, thank you Dr @Tanyaalih for your courage, passion and eloquence. Watch EVERY MINUTE of this extraordinary interview about the grotesque murder of 9 siblings in Gaza. I just don't know how she holds it together. /1

The murder of a journalist in a hospital bed is a double war crime that ought really to be a news story - and of particular concern to journalists. As far as I can see - not a squeak in western media.
