Under international humanitarian law, Russia, as the occupying power, has the duty to provide food and medical supplies and to facilitate humanitarian relief. I call for an immediate local ceasefire, unhindered humanitarian access, and the safe evacuation of civilians. The hardship and suffering of people caught along the frontlines of the war and in occupied territories demand international attention and action.”

I am alarmed by the rapidly deteriorating humanitarian crisis in Oleshky, a town in the temporarily occupied parts of the Kherson region of Ukraine. Civilians, including children, are trapped without sufficient food, medicines, medical care, running water or electricity. Reports indicate that they face a high risk of death.

‘ #Palestine Is Being Erased Before Our Eyes’: 100 Former French, British Diplomats Say End Weapons Sales, Trade With Israel

The abuses by the Israeli government and military are “a stain on the conscience of humanity, requiring the #UK and #France to act.”

Jon Queally, Aug 23, 2026

"While critics of the French and British governments say they are doing too little to confront the crimes and #HumanRights violations of #Israel against the #PalestinianPeople, about 100 former diplomats of the two nations penned an open letter published over the weekend agreeing that much stronger actions must be taken to end the atrocities taking place in both the Gaza Strip and the Occupied West Bank.

Published in Le Monde on Saturday, the joint op-ed by the former UK and French ambassadors and foreign diplomats argues that because their two nations 'played a decisive role in the shaping of the Middle East,' it is incumbent upon them to 'make common cause over the region’s fundamental faultline: equal rights for Israelis and #Palestinians' — a dynamic grossly lacking as Palestinians are starved and bombed in #Gaza, with their rights endlessly under assault in the #WestBank.

According to the letter:

- In Gaza, two million Palestinians are kettled into 30% of their devastated land, hungry, lacking medicine and housing. Over 1,200 Palestinians have been killed since the so-called 'ceasefire' of October 2025. In #EastJerusalem and the rest of the #WestBank, Palestinian house demolitions and rampant settler violence— with the connivance of the Israeli army and police—amount to ethnic cleansing. Palestine is being erased before our eyes.

- This policy of occupation and destruction extends to #Lebanon — where many villages have been razed — and Syria. It is a stain on the conscience of humanity, requiring the UK and France to act."

The law of the innocents: Ireland’s medieval precursor to the Geneva conventions.

The Geneva conventions, which were signed in the aftermath of the horrors of WW2, are generally accepted as the gold standard of international humanitarian law.

But they were preceded by more than 12 centuries by a law drawn up by a monk amid the violence of seventh-century Ireland.

Lethal Precision Without Accountability: Israeli Government "Quadcopter" Use in Gaza
❞

Uit die pagina (iets aangepast):
❝
Medical imaging and forensic analysis of deaths and injuries treated by co-author Dr. Syed and her colleagues in Gaza between August and September 2024 suggest a pattern of highly precise and troubling applications of lethal force utilizing small tactical “sniper” drones against children.

90 percent of the 18 cases of child death or injury by gunshots documented by Dr. Syed were reported to be fired by quadcopters, per witnesses […]. Most of the wounds were caused by single small caliber rounds to the head, neck, chest, or abdomen. Given this pattern of single-shot precision, these types of wounds strongly suggest targeting that fails to discriminate civilians from combatants.
❞

M.b.t. "tactical drones", uit de conclusie in het rapport:
❝
The U.S. and the international community would do well to pay attention to quadcopter technology, at the very least to promote measures that incorporate this emerging technology into systems of international humanitarian law that are intended to protect civilians.

"We, the undersigned organizations and individuals, are deeply alarmed by the rapid militarization of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. AI systems embedded into military kill chains are accelerating the speed and scale of military assaults in a manner that creates significant new risks for accountability in conflict and risks facilitating violations of international criminal, human rights, and humanitarian law.

We therefore call for tech companies and states to halt the provision of AI systems for use in the military kill chain and to take all steps to ensure that other AI systems they provide do not cause or contribute to violations of international humanitarian law (IHL) and international human rights law (IHRL). This includes the use of AI decision-support systems, including target generation systems, remote biometric surveillance, and multimodal AI models, including large language models (LLMs). AI-accelerated warfare is rapidly becoming a means of rubber-stamping killing at speed and at scale, and currently no technical or procedural fixes can effectively prevent the lethal and devastating consequences that stem from the fundamental challenges it poses to international law."

On Monday, Gyasi backtracked and said she did not wish to “self-deport”, according to Heilman. That day, Gyasi experienced vaginal bleeding & was again taken to a hospital, where doctors said her condition was caused by high stress, the court filing states.

A judge on Wednesday ordered federal officials to show a legal basis for Gyasi’s #detention by 9 a.m. Thursday.

The #ACLU alleges that Gyasi told #CBP officers she preferred to be deported because she fears remaining in #detention could result in her losing her unborn child [pro-life admin my tuchus]. After agreeing to leave “voluntarily”, CBP officers allowed her to request additional food & let her shower for the first time since she was detained, the lawyers claim.

“If she hadn’t answered that question honestly, she would have been well on her way to her child’s doctor’s appointment,” Heilman said.

The #State Dept last month instructed diplomatic missions to ask applicants for nonimmigrant visas if they fear returning home to their country, & to REFUSE travel documents for those who say yes. It was unclear whether that policy was related to Gyasi’s #detention.
