Ceasefire comes into effect on Sunday. Colleagues in Gaza are very worried about what comes next, experience shows Israel always escalates its destruction in terrifying ways before a ceasefire deadline.

It's no accident that this disgusting and dangerous opinion is being given space in the WSJ at the same time as Trump is talking about taking over Greenland. Annexation is having another moment. We are being encouraged to accept Might is Right for this new era.

I've never looked ahead to a new year with such dread. The media is barely paying attention to what is going on in Gaza, politicians have almost given up pretending to even care. We're going to have to dig really deep to end this.

Our leaders must demand the immediate and safe release of Dr Hussam Abu Safiya and all detained Gaza health workers.
Health workers are not a target, and impunity for Israel's destruction of Palestinian healthcare must end.

The grim predictability of Israel waiting for the holidays to escalate its attacks on Kamal Adwan Hospital. When Western media and governments are distracted. We all knew this would happen, but nobody with power did anything to stop it.
