Israeli #Knesset vote on #UNRWA set to deepen Palestinian suffering

Source: https://news.un.org/en/story/2024/10/1156231

Monday’s vote by the Israeli Knesset banning the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) contradicts principles of the UN Charter, violates #Israel’s obligations under international law, and sets a dangerous precedent, the head of the Agency, Philippe #Lazzarini has warned. The UN chief pledged later he would take the issue to the General Assembly.

Israel Should End Campaign to Destroy Lifesaving UN Palestinian Aid Agency

New Legislation Would Bar UNRWA from Gaza, West Bank

https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/10/15/israel-should-end-campaign-destroy-lifesaving-un-palestinian-aid-agency

Israeli authorities should withdraw proposed legislation in parliament aimed at preventing the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) from operating in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and halt their campaign to destroy the UN’s most important aid agency for Palestinian refugees in Gaza and elsewhere.\
\
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the proposal to evict UNRWA from areas under Israeli control and revoke its privileges and immunities “would be a catastrophe,” calling the agency “indispensable” and “irreplaceable.” European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said the laws would have “disastrous consequences” if implemented. United States Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield also voiced “deep concern.”

#Poland’s leader plans to suspend the right to #asylum as country faces pressure on #Belarus #border

Source: https://apnews.com/article/poland-migration-asylum-right-suspension-belarus-1716d8872d38caa25b01ac02a5348a69

Through its involvement in the lost wars in Iraq, Libya, Syria and Afghanistan, Poland has contributed significantly to the refugee flows. Refusing to accept refugees is therefore not only ethically reprehensible but also a testimony to inhumane criminal politics.

#Heat #inequality ‘causing thousands of unreported #deaths in #poor countries’

“Heatwaves are the deadliest type of extreme #weather but they don’t leave a trail of destruction or striking images of devastation. They kill poor, lonely people in rich countries, and poor people working outdoors in developing countries,” said Otto, who is also a senior lecturer in #climate science at the Grantham Institute of Imperial College #London. “In the last 13 months, there will be thousands and thousands of stories of poor people dying in heat that will never be told.”

Jumaa Yagoub Suleiman, a 30-year-old community leader from Darfur, escaped the massacres in El Geneina last year, but even in Chad his life is constantly under threat from armed groups, and he is forced to change location regularly.
“It’s not safe here, they always contact us and send messages, they send people to Adré, searching for the community leaders. They tell me, ‘You escaped from El Geneina, but you’re not going to escape from Adré,’” Jumaa said.

"A pig's head wrapped in the flag of #Palestine with a text "#Ukraine stands with #Israel" was found in #Berlin's oldest mosque.

Police are reportedly investigating.

As of February 2024, there are about 1.1 million Ukrainian #refugees in #Germany. #Zelensky has previously claimed that Israel had an unquestionable right to defend itself from attacks from Palestine."

PS. This sounds a lot like a false flag operation.
