How world leaders, faced with a choice between complicity and courage, enabled genocide. How they denied Palestinians our inalienable right to self-determination and return, and chose to support occupation over freedom, apartheid over equality. Today, after decades of appeasement and impunity, Israel has entrenched one of the longest military occupations in modern history, one that seeks not only to control Palestinian life but to extinguish it.
The ship with aid for Gaza was attacked by a drone just outside Maltese territorial waters, the international non-governmental organization Freedom Flotilla Coalition said in a message on X. The attack caused damage to the hull and a fire.
Malta’s local media reported that all persons on the vessel were rescued, and there were no injuries. Local media also reported that an Israeli military aircraft hovered around Malta hours before the vessel was attacked.
In an earlier statement, the government confirmed that a distress call was received and that the authorities offered immediate assistance. An Armed Forces of Malta patrol boat was also dispatched to the area.
GAZA, April 7, 2025 (WAFA) — At least 10 civilians, including journalists, were killed and others injured early Monday morning in Israeli airstrikes on various areas of the Gaza Strip.
Local sources reported that Israeli warplanes bombed a journalists’ tent near Nasser Medical Complex Hospital in Khan Yunis, killing journalist Hilmi al-Faqawi and Yousef al-Khazindar. Journalists Ahmed Mansour, Hassan Islayh, Ahmed al-Agha, Mohammed Fayeq, Abdullah al-Attar, Ihab al-Bardini, Mahmoud Awad, Majed Qudaih, and Ali Islayh were injured, some seriously.
The sources added that the Israeli occupation bombed two houses west of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, killing two citizens and wounding others.
WAFA correspondent said that Israeli drones targeted a group of citizens on Wadi al-Arayes Street in the al-Zeitoun neighborhood south of Gaza City, killing three citizens: Ghassan Bassam al-Anqar, Awad Jamal al-Harazin, and Saeed Ashour Daghmash.
He added that the occupation also bombed Masoud Street in the Al-Jurn area north of Gaza City, killing Abdul Karim Akram Muqbil. Two citizens were also killed and others wounded in the occupation’s bombing of Jabalia al-Balad, north of the Gaza Strip.
“The available information indicates that the first team was killed by Israeli forces on March 23 and that other emergency and aid crews were struck one after another over several hours as they searched for their missing colleagues,” OCHA said. “They were buried under the sand, alongside their wrecked emergency vehicles, clearly marked ambulances, a fire truck and a UN car.”
These are material facts. Of course, Zionist Israel is a “racialised” project of “White Supremacy” – as confirmed by the 1975 UN ruling. More than half of historical Palestine has been usurped by White (Zionist) invaders from Europe (and elsewhere) – and the US is facilitating the Israeli invasion of the remaining area still occupied by the indigenous (Palestinian) population. Of course, the vassal States of the UK and EU also meekly empower this Zionist invasion and destruction of indigenous life in Palestine. Of course, as the political left is dead in the water, no group (or collection of groups) has come forward in opposition of the US and in support of South Africa. This can only be construed as the latent anti-Black racism on the left coming into play. It is the Trotskyites who pursue this double-edged sword – preventing appropriate action on the one-hand, whilst encouraging inappropriate responses on the other. The left has been fatally holed beneath the waterline and is taking in water.
Three emergency personnel were lifted several metres up on a fire brigade aerial ladder platform at around 10:00 GMT, with one person using a megaphone to speak to the man on the ledge.
Negotiations then continued throughout the day and into the night.
The incident began when the man got into the grounds of Parliament, walked up some steps, quickly climbed onto a railing, and up the side of Elizabeth Tower.
At one point he took his shoes off to enable him to climb higher to a ledge. He injured his feet, and patches of blood could be seen on the stonework of the tower.
The man was spotted within minutes by police on the ground, who asked if he was able to get down safely.
Photographs throughout the day showed him sitting on the ledge with the flag and wrapped a traditional Palestinian keffiyeh scarf around the decorative stonework on the tower.
