Emilie Stevenson speaking on behalf of Na’amod a movement of Jewish people in the UK opposing apartheid. “We are not unsafe on these marches, we are welcomed. we are celebrated. The only time I feel unsafe is when we are up against aggressive zionist counter protestors.”
Lebanon has moved towards accepting the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) jurisdiction to prosecute violations on its territory since October, in what Human Rights Watch said was a “landmark step” towards justice for war crimes. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/8kngkt

The govt of Turkiye keeps banning access to the website of this pro-Kurdish newspaper and one of their journalists is in prison for suspected membership of the PKK. Interesting that they rightly take a dim view of the World Bank's effect on agriculture.

We urge #German authorities to not only respect people’s right to protest & right to freedom of expression, but to facilitate & uphold the same. We have been observing shrinking spaces and the silencing of people speaking out in solidarity with Palestinian human rights.
We are very concerned that instead of facilitating and protecting the right to protest, authorities are cracking down on people taking part in a protest camp in front of the German Parliament, the #Bundestag. berliner-zeitung.de/news/berlin-pr…
