There are clear laws on enforcing blockades – Israel’s interception of the Madleen raises serious questions (The Conversation, 2025-06-10)

>> International law also strongly protects the freedom of navigation, particularly in international waters ...

>> There are only a few exceptions when a country can lawfully stop a foreign ship in international waters ...

>> international humanitarian law, … protects civilians during conflict. This protection extends to people delivering humanitarian aid, so long as they do not directly take part in hostilities.

>> Bringing aid to civilians, even if politically controversial, does not meet this legal threshold [to be considered directly participating in hostilities]. As a result, the #Madleen’s passengers remain protected civilians and should not be treated as combatants or detained arbitrarily…

On 30 April, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun told Sky News Arabia that Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas had raised the issue of disarming Palestinian factions in Lebanon’s refugee camps at the emergency Arab Summit in Cairo in early March.

It was a remarkable revelation. The emergency summit’s goal was the reconstruction of Gaza. But Abbas had other priorities. Both before and in the weeks since the Arab summit, Abbas has criticized the armed resistance by Palestinian factions on several occasions, especially by Hamas, notably demanding that what he called the “sons of dogs” release the remaining Israeli captives in Gaza.

For decades, the Lebanese authorities have treated the Palestinian camps in Lebanon as armed hotbeds that could explode at any moment and have ignored Palestinian refugees’ human rights.

Instead of transcending this narrow approach, Abbas’ ​​visit reduced the Palestinian presence in Lebanon to only a security matter.

Why, and why now?

Greenpeace calls for international action to release the Madleen aid vessel - Greenpeace International (2025-06-09)

https://www.greenpeace.org/international/press-release/75331/greenpeace-calls-for-international-action-to-release-the-madleen-aid-vessel/

>> #Greenpeace demands:

• An immediate, unconditional and permanent ceasefire to halt the assault on civilians and the environment.
• The release by Hamas of all hostages.
• The release by Israel of all illegally detained Palestinians.
• The imposition of targeted sanctions and a comprehensive arms embargo, enforced by the international community.
• The unhindered delivery of aid by the UN and other humanitarian organisations.
• An end to the illegal occupation of Palestine.

>> If the international community continues to stand-by without taking concrete action as ethnic cleansing, war crimes and crimes against humanity mount, it will have to answer for aiding and abetting a genocide. The time to act is now!

"The activists had set out to protest Israel’s ongoing military campaign in the Gaza Strip, which is among the deadliest and most destructive since World War II, and its restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid, both of which have put the territory of around 2 million Palestinians at risk of famine."

"A review of leaked data from Meta, provided to us by company whistleblowers, shows that Israeli companies since 2023 are finding it increasingly difficult everywhere around the world to attract new customers, leading to advertising-cost increases in the billions.

We also just posted the translated audio of an extraordinary interview just given by former Israeli PM Yair Lapid, who is often discussed as a more humane, centrist alternative to Benjamin Netanyahu. Give it a listen and see if you agree with that label."

"In late May, UCSF terminated Rupa Marya following a nine-month suspension from the elite medical school based on social media posts in which she criticized Israel’s genocide in Gaza and questioned how Zionist ideology affects health care outcomes. As a part of her dismissal, UCSF officials will place a letter of censure in Marya’s file for 10 years, which she said will likely damage her ability to seek future employment and continue practicing medicine.

"“We are an apolitical, non-partisan organization, but you have to be deaf, dumb and blind not to see what’s happening on the left,” #Greenblatt said Friday, according to audio from the event obtained by the #Forward.

“There is a throughline from Occupy Wall Street to BLM to ‘defund the police’ to ‘River to the Sea,’” he added, referring to the Black Lives Matter movement launched a decade ago to protest police violence. “They are the same people, these are the same kind of nihilists.”"

Journalist MosabAbuToha shares a witness account of an attack near a Rafah GHF site this morning:

  • Around 3AM, gunmen speaking fluent Palestinian dialect gathered crowds, pretending to manage aid lines.

  • At 7AM, they opened fire — shooting some people in the head — before fleeing toward Rafah, where Israeli forces are stationed.

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs says the Madleen’s crew is being taken to Israel after Israeli commandos seized the vessel in international waters. The Madleen ship, launched by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, was close to 100 miles [160km] from Gaza when it was stopped. The ship was carrying humanitarian aid to Palestinians starving because of Israel’s siege. Israel’s most recent total blockade began on March 2, and has only partially lifted under mounting international pressure.
