We get an update on Israel’s war on Lebanon from journalist Rania Abouzeid in Beirut. “We are seeing a definite escalation that started a month ago and doesn’t show any sign of letting up,” she observes, describing unrestrained attacks by Israel throughout the country, on all sectors of society, as Israel carries out its “Dahiya doctrine” in an attempt to foment division among the Lebanese population. “This is the Gaza playbook. … The sentiment here is that this is now a war on Lebanon,” Abouzeid says.

As the official death toll in Gaza passes more than 42,400, the true number may be impossible to know until Israel’s war is over. But medical workers who witnessed the carnage in Gaza’s hospitals are speaking out.

The Times called the corresponding images of the patients too graphic to publish. “I personally wish that Americans could see more of what it ... continua

The Biden administration is sending an advanced anti-missile defense system and 100 U.S. troops to Israel in advance of expected retaliatory strikes against Iran. This marks the first significant deployment of American troops to Israel since the beginning of its assault on Gaza, though the U.S. has spent an estimated tens of billions of dollars on the Israeli military and related operations. “The irony here is the Iranian missile attack is only going to happen if we help Israel strike Iran first,” says Win Without War’s Harrison Mann. With the deployment of ... continua

More than 3 million people in Florida are without power after Hurricane Milton made landfall in Sarasota County on Wednesday as a Category 3 storm, pummeling the area with torrential rains and winds of up to 120 miles an hour.

Da più di 50 anni quattro milioni di palestinesi vivono in esilio e di questi 350mila sono ammassati nel campo profughi libanese di Chatila, a Beirut. Issa e Farah sono due bambini di strada nati lì. Hanno 12 e 11 anni e usano la loro immaginazione (a volte, una mini camera digitale) per raccontare la realtà di crescere in un campo profughi sopravvissuto a massacri, assedi e fame. Si portano dietro, nel sangue, l’orrore della strage di Sabra e Chatila, e Farah, il ragazzino, deve la sua vita e a una bomba israeliana che ha ucciso sua madre per strada e costretto ... continua

A new documentary from Al Jazeera takes a look at evidence of war crimes in Gaza in the form of social media posted by Israeli soldiers recording and celebrating their own attacks on Palestinians. We play excerpts from the film Investigating War Crimes in Gaza, now available online, and speak to two of the journalists involved in its production, director Richard Sanders and Gaza-based correspondent Youmna ElSayed. “Israelis themselves were telling us precisely what they were doing and why they were doing it,” says Sanders about the evidence the team reviewed. ... continua
