Israel still committing genocide in Gaza despite ceasefire, says Amnesty

But while Israeli authorities and forces have reduced the scale of their attacks and allowed limited amounts of humanitarian aid into Gaza, the world must not be fooled.

Australia's recognition of Palestinian statehood sits uneasily alongside the government's continuing policy to export military equipment, including F-35 components, for potential use in Gaza. Time to address this. #auspol #palestine #Israel
Paper promises, real weapons: Transparency, accountability and arms transfer policy
Australia will recognise Palestinian statehood in September, while at the same time continuing to supply critical components for the F-35 fighter jets used by Israel in its military operations in Gaza.
