Al Jazeera Mubasher reports Israel is using drones & aid routes to smuggle narcotics into Gaza, w/ drugs found hidden in flour bags & aid trucks. Palestinian leaders say it’s a deliberate effort to fracture society while food & medicine remain blocked

Good to see the Board of the @esc-eurocrim.bsky.social have found time for a city break between obstructing and delaying the vote promised to members on the Society's complicity in Israeli atrocity crimes
The Board of the European Society of Criminology dropped by Warsaw to see how preparations for Eurocrim 2026 are progressing Looks like we’re on the right track! It’s going to be a fantastic conference, and we can’t wait to welcome you to Warsaw in September 2026!

'Epstein wasn’t a rogue actor. He moved easily through worlds of finance, science, politics, and media. His connections to both Bill Clinton and Donald Trump reveal a social world where money, sex, and influence flow freely -protected by the powerful and ignored by regulators.'
