This is what a "ceasefire" is for Israel. The only real, lasting ceasefire is the total dismantling of an apartheid, genocidal state whose existence has always and will always rely on the wholesale slaughter and dehumanization of Palestinians
The Israeli army has resumed random shelling and airstrikes against Palestinians in Gaza, marking the latest Israeli attempt to sabotage the ceasefire following Netanyahu's violation of the agreement by stopping the flow of humanitarian aid.

Forcing vehicular cycling through professionally bankrupt infrastructure design is complicity in the death and injury of people walking and biking. Streets should not be death sentences for those without a car.
This child, who had a legal right to bike in the road, was properly riding on the right side. The driver that struck him claimed not to see him.
Not everyone has access to a car. Some people must ride or walk to get where they're going. They don't deserve to be killed for doing so.
