A powerful new report submitted to the UN Human Rights Council by Francesca Albanese, the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, is drawing sharp condemnation — not only from Israel but also from the United States.

Titled ‘From Economy of Occupation to Economy of Genocide’, the report delivers a searing indictment of corporate involvement in Israel’s settler-colonial enterprise and its ongoing genocidal war on Gaza, accusing private and state-linked companies of enabling apartheid, war crimes, and genocide.

On +972, we Palestinians speak for ourselves (Mahmoud Mushtaha, 2025-07-02)

>> ... speaking out has meant navigating a hostile media environment, shaped by pro-Israel bias and corporate funders. In my own work, I’ve been asked by editors to replace the word “occupation” with “conflict”, or to remove “apartheid” ...

>> Other times, this hostility is the absence of space altogether...

>> This is why +972 Magazine matters. It’s one of the few platforms where Palestinians are not just written about or quoted. We are among its contributors, analysts, editors, and decisionmakers, and we shape the coverage.

>> +972 ... doesn’t have corporate backers. It doesn’t take funding from the U.S. or Israeli governments, ...

>> ... By supporting +972, you help ensure that Palestinians continue to have our voices heard — and without filtering the truth.

>> #Oxfam and over 170 other NGOs operating in Gaza call for immediate action to end the deadly Israeli distribution scheme …, revert to the existing UN-led coordination mechanisms, and lift the Israeli government’s blockade on aid and commercial supplies. The 400 aid distribution points operating during the temporary ceasefire across Gaza have now been replaced by just four military-controlled distribution sites, forcing two million people into overcrowded, militarized zones where they face daily gunfire and mass casualties while trying to access food and are denied other life-saving supplies…

[PDF] From economy of occupation to economy of genocide: Report of the Special Rapporteur on the situation
of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967, Francesca Albanese (Advance edited version | OHCHR, 2025-06-30)

>> … While political leaders and Governments shirk their obligations, far too many corporate entities have profited from the Israeli economy of illegal occupation, apartheid and now genocide. The complicity exposed by the report is just the tip of the iceberg; ending it will not happen without holding the private sector accountable, including its executives... This is a necessary step to end the genocide and dismantle the global system that has allowed it.

The violence last week in Kafr Malik, in the West Bank, comes amid a surge in assaults by Israeli settlers. It also set off a chain of violence in the area.

By Fatima AbdulKarim
July 1, 2025 Updated 1:56 p.m. ET

"The attackers threw another firebomb into the bedroom where Mr. Afeef’s newborn nephew was being lulled to sleep, scorching furniture and leaving blackened marks on the floor and walls, the family said. The damage was visible when Times reporters visited on Friday. [...] Soon after, Israeli forces arrived and opened fired at Palestinians instead of stopping the rioters, according to multiple witnesses.

The soldiers killed three people, according to the Palestinian health ministry. [...]Nine others were injured, some gravely..."

There is a whole army of hasbara trolls, paid propagandists and willing genocide supporters out there telling us how outraged they are about a musician shouting "Death to the IDF" in public.

The same people who don't want you to remember Hind Rajab and the other 20000+ children murdered by IDF and the millions being starved right now.

Israel's Knesset House Committee voted to advance the impeachment of prominent lawmaker Ayman Odeh, a Palestinian citizen of Israel, on Monday, over comments he made earlier this year, which were perceived as being pro-Palestinian and against the war in Gaza.

Lawmakers from both the ruling coalition and opposition Yesh Atid and National Unity parties voted 14-2 in favour of impeachment, while two Knesset members from the Palestinian Ra'am and Ta'al parties opposed the move.

Odeh had earned the scorn of several Israeli lawmakers earlier this year when he welcomed a long-awaited ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.

"I am happy about the release of the hostages and prisoners. From here, both peoples must be freed from the yoke of the occupation. We were all born free," Odeh wrote on 19 January after Hamas released three Israeli women after 471 days in captivity.

Ras Ain al-Ouja is one of the largest Palestinian Bedouin villages in the occupied West Bank. Nestled amid a ridge of high silt hills just north of Jericho city, the village is facing intensified Israeli government-funded settler efforts to expel its residents.

The community’s 1,200 residents are surrounded from all sides by the illegal Yitav settlement and four illegal settler outposts, the most recent of which was built one year ago.

Settlers descend onto the village and raid residents’ homes on a daily basis, physically attacking people, stealing sheep, and terrorizing families. They also took over the nearby spring of Ain al-Ouja, one of the main springs in Palestine and a major water source for the entire area that drew local tourism. Today, all Palestinians are barred from accessing it.
