Bulgarian journalist and editor working on the Middle East, Eastern Europe and the Balkans. Currently with Al Jazeera English.

The documentary by Australian journalist Antony Loewenstein on Israel's weapons industry is available to watch on Al Jazeera's website and youtube channel.

It makes quite clear why what is happening in #Palestine concerns us all:

"What Israel is testing and selling and promoting is not just weaponsry, it's an idea... a very appealing concept for many other countries. Israel sells the idea of getting away with it."

Dr Hussam Abu Safiya has been subjected to torture and abuse by his Israeli captors. The relief, according to Al Jazeera's Nour Odeh, is that at least he is alive.

Dr Abu Safiya refused repeadly to abandon his patients at Kamal Adwan hospital in the face of Israeli threats and orders to leave.

At least 2 doctors have been murdered in Israeli prisons through torture. More than 300 medical professionals from #Gaza are still being held, their fate - unknown.

The death toll from the Israeli massacre in Nusseirat regugee camp, which the Israeli army did not stop bombarding for 24 hours, has reached 84 people, including 50 children.

100,000s continue to be trapped in northern #Gaza bc the Israeli army is NOT letting anyone leave. Israeli soldiers & drones are shooting at whoever tries.

Colleague Hani Mahmoud reports:

"About 400,000 people, are trapped, with the Israeli military not allowing anyone to leave the area despite issuing an evacuation order.

People are stuck in their homes and not getting any food, water supplies or other essentials....

This is a systematic mass slaughter."

"The video—which is captioned in Hebrew, “Destruction of the Tal Sultan water reservoir in honor of Shabbat”—ends with footage of the water facility being blown up. The soundtrack is a song produced by soldiers of the 51st Golani Brigade with lyrics like, “We will burn Gaza… shake all of Gaza… for every house you destroy we will destroy ten.”

The Israeli army has been shooting at and killing people waiting for aid in northern Gaza for weeks now.

More than 400 people have been killed in this way, including more than 110 in the "Flour Massacre".

There does not seem to be any global reaction to these regular massacres of starving people.
