This Week in Palestine: Israel Kills another Journalist, a Health Worker, and an Elderly Woman
Zeteo's weekly round-up of the stories you may have missed out of occupied Gaza and the West Bank, as Israel continues its genocidal war and apartheid policies.
Israel’s war on Iran with the US, and renewed escalation in Lebanon, including boasting about launching 100 strikes in 10 minutes, has not stopped it from continuing its genocide in Gaza and furthering its de facto annexation of the West Bank.
Just this week, Israeli forces killed another journalist in Gaza, Israeli soldiers beat an elderly woman to death, and the Israeli government secretly approved dozens of new settlements for the occupied West Bank.
Something Israel’s actions elsewhere in the region have done is divert attention away from what it’s doing in Palestine. That’s exactly why we started ‘This Week in Palestine’ – to ensure we didn’t look away.
