I condemn the global mainstream media for failing to cover the credible accusations, Greta Thunberg has been abused, beaten, humiliated and mistreated in Israeli custody. It is absolutely essential that the media focus on this story, to put pressure on Israel.

Greta Thunberg is held prisoner by Israel at a jail in the Negev. Read what Sweden’s embassy in Israel reports are the conditions of her detention ⬇️

Now just imagine: if Israel treats a world-famous Swedish activist this way, how badly are its prisons abusing Palestinians?

I've been testing out the camera on my Samsung S24 today.
I compared three apps:
Camera
Open Camera
Expert RAW (Samsung's high end Camera app)
For me, I found Expert RAW best – when comparing jpeg files.
Has anyone here found a better free camera app for the S24 specifically, not the S24 + or Ultra?
