A lifeline to refugees in Gaza, West Bank and the wider region was cut because of Israel’s politically motivated allegations. Countries that suspended aid to @UNRWA must learn the lessons and resume funding immediately. UNRWA has robust neutrality steps, Israel yet to back up…
Over 80% of schools in Gaza have been destroyed or damaged. Hundreds of teachers have been killed. Thousands of school students. UN experts are raising the question of whether Israel is deliberately seeking to destroy Palestinian education in the strip. ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
New stats released by @The_TUC show pupil-to-qualified teacher ratios in secondary schools in England have risen from 15.4 to 17.2 since 2010. Our children are being taught by non-specialist teachers. Schools just don’t have the funds to recruit more staff. #InvestInEducation
Abuses, including assault, torture, and sexual violence, against Palestinians in the West Bank are soaring. The Israeli military either took part in or did not protect Palestinians from violent settler attacks in the West Bank. trib.al/CQwPcOv
A child is killed every 10 minutes in the📍#GazaStrip A deplorable number of children have also been injured amid intense and often indiscriminate attacks. An immediate #Ceasefire is the last hope remaining.
Today @SadiqKhan has pledged to continue offering free school meals to primary school children, which is in my opinion a great use of London taxpayer's money. This is HUGE and part of what I’ve been working on for the past 20 years. Food in schools is as essential as exercise…
#Gaza: "I call on Israel, as the occupying Power, to protect the Palestinian population of the occupied West Bank against attacks, violence and intimidation" - UN chief @antonioguterres
To avert imminent famine, and further preventable deaths, we need a quantum leap in humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza. Humanitarian agencies, led by @UNRWA, must be able to move food & other supplies safely & via all possible routes & crossings, into & throughout Gaza.
Across the📍#GazaStrip, @UNRWA and other humanitarian agencies face continuous challenges to deliver aid to people. Access limitations imposed by Israeli authorities and difficulties on the ground are hindering the process: 🧵 (1/7)
Horrifying. In Gaza, one child is killed or injured every ten minutes. Each one is a life and a light extinguished or changed forever. Children need this nightmare to end.
Horrifying. In Gaza, one child is killed or injured every ten minutes. Each one is a life and a light extinguished or changed forever. Children need this nightmare to end.
In the State of Palestine, I met children near Ramallah who face violence, barriers & checkpoints daily. I heard heartbreaking accounts of children being detained, and war in Gaza separating mothers from their babies. All violence against children must stop now.
How is this rogue state Israel allowed to present the West with two choices: either get dragged in to a regional war or continue being complicit in genocide. On @Channel4News this evening ahead of a UN Security Council vote on admitting Palestine as a member state.
Schools are now the biggest source of charitable food and household aid for struggling families in the cost-of-living crisis, @BristolUni research shows tes.com/magazine/news/…
The meeting was scheduled after Jordan requested that a ministerial-level Council meeting be convened on the challenges faced by @UNRWA
BREAKING 🚨 | Bosses will no longer able to punish striking workers, thanks to UNISON's Supreme Court win. This is another crushing defeat for the government in court over its oppressive strike laws. Monumental victory for UNISON - and the whole union movement!
In the West Bank, inc East Jerusalem, I met with children who told me that fear & violence permeate their lives. And I met baby triplets, Noor, Najwa and Nejma, just eight months old but separated from their mom because of the war in Gaza. The suffering of children must end.
Max Hammer, @NaamodUK: Despite these marches often being “labelled as ‘dangerous for Jews’, one of the things that I found really empowering is to be part of the ‘Jewish bloc’ & see how many Jews are actually out on the streets declaring loudly their solidarity with Palestinians”

Unlike Iran's attack on Israel, which killed no-one, there won't be wall to wall outrage over the Israeli killing of 11 Palestinian kids, as there's been a lack of outrage over over 14,000 kids being slaughtered. Why? Because Palestinian life is considered worthless.

Today we handed in our petition to 10 Downing Street signed by over 67,000 people calling on the UK government to #StopArmingIsrael. We were supported by a cross-party group of MPs including @alisonthewliss, @BellRibeiroAddy, @RichardBurgon, @ApsanaBegumMP and @Imran_HussainMP.

Rishi Sunak, what are you waiting for? The UK must stop arming Israel. Over 14,000 children have been killed in Gaza. This is a war on children – and there is a serious risk that military equipment containing parts made in the UK is being used to wage it. #StopTheWarOnChildren
