As limited aid trickles into Gaza, Israel’s strategy of ‘engineering chaos’ by shooting at aid-seekers and permitting looters to steal aid ensures that food doesn’t get to starving Palestinians.

READ: Mahmoud Khalil is suing Trump for false imprisonment after being detained for 104 days for speaking out on Palestine. He missed the birth of his child. Now he’s demanding $20M — not for himself, but to help others targeted by Trump’s crackdown. https://mondoweiss.net/2025/07/mahmoud-khalil-sues-trump-for-false-imprisonment/

Another U.S.-run aid center was the site of a massacre in southern Gaza after Israeli forces opened fire on civilians. “The Americans and Israelis set a huge trap for us to lure us here and kill us,” an eyewitness told Mondoweiss.

77 years ago today, my family's history was forever altered by the massacre in Deir Yassin. Because of it, I see everything through the filter of the Nakba — and the Gaza genocide through the lens of sumud.

Last week Israel ordered the evacuation of Rafah, the very place that has been a refuge for millions of Palestinians, including myself. As I read the news, the memories of my displacement to Rafah came flooding back.

The Lemkin Institute — named after the man who coined genocide — has issued a statement condemning Israel, the U.S., Canada, and Europe for perpetrating genocide in Gaza.

The fight to free Mahmoud Khalil is not merely about preserving First Amendment rights, it is about whether we will allow our government to criminalize resistance to its complicity in human rights abuses and genocide.

The fires burning in Palestine and Los Angeles today are symptoms of the same disease: a system that values conquest over conservation, profit over people, and expansion over existence.

Israel declares victory, but Hezbollah remains standing—damaged, yet far from defeated.

Cartoon by Carlos Latuff

Israeli forces killed nine Palestinians in a two day military raid on the West Bank city of Jenin. The raid completely destroyed areas of the city as Israel detained an unspecified number of Palestinians.

Donald Trump is filling his incoming administration with pro-Israel war hawks. The moves indicate he will embrace a hawkish foreign policy in the Middle East and advance attacks against organizations aiming to help Palestinians.

Israel is deepening Lebanese social rifts by bombing areas that have been considered historically "safe" from Israeli attacks, dissuading the residents of those areas from sheltering displaced people from the south.

We must focus on the present as conditions in Gaza worsen daily, but a clear strategy and political vision are crucial to inspire people around the world as to what is possible.

Many Palestinians are fleeing Rafah ahead of Israel’s impending invasion, but when they return to their destroyed neighborhoods they still face bombardment. “We escaped death to walk into a different kind of death,” Jamila Eleywa tells Mondoweiss.

Israeli soldiers have photographed themselves posing with the lingerie of Palestinian women they have displaced or killed in Gaza. They join a long line of conquest images, from Abu Ghraib images to the spectacle of Jim Crow-era lynchings.

Armed resistance in the West Bank had been concentrated in larger cities, but since October 7 it is spreading. “Resistance in Azzun used to be non-armed,” a resident of the small town tells Mondoweiss. “Then everything changed after October 7.”

Over 2/3 of Jewish Israelis oppose humanitarian aid to Palestinians starving in Gaza

A new Israeli Democracy Institute survey shows that 68% of Jewish Israelis oppose “the transfer of humanitarian aid to Gaza residents.”
