https://www.ochaopt.org/content/movement-and-access-west-bank-april-2026
———>> As of December 2025, OCHA documented 925 movement obstacles that permanently or intermittently restrict the movement of 3.4 million Palestinians across the West Bank, including East Jerusalem. This is 43% more[❗] than the annual average of 647 movement obstacles in the preceding 20 years…
>> To access agricultural land isolated between the Barrier and the Green Line, Palestinian farmers must obtain special permits[💢] or prior coordination to cross through about 62 agricultural Barrier gates, ... In addition, 98 Palestinian communities across nine governorates are now required to apply for ‘prior coordination’ arrangements to be granted[💢] by the Israeli military to enable owners to access their farmland ...

„The death of a 14-year-old boy shot dead on Tuesday outside his school in Al-Mughayyir marks a new peak in an unprecedented spiral of violence in the West Bank. #Targetedkillings, #destruction of farmland and expanding settlements have all intensified, largely ignored by political and diplomatic actors.“

Do U.S. voters realize the scale and cost of the 47th #POTUS's *drastic* #immigration "slow-walking"?
This backlog is bigger than ALL FOUR YEARS of the 45th POTUS's term.
It's stopped TONS of #science by removing work authorization from LOADS of #scientists who were ALREADY LEGALLY WORKING HERE FOR YEARS (e.g., when graduating Ph.D. #students or #postdocs have to transition to an H-1B #visa when OPT expires).
We had to halt multiple #decisionScience projects when a Research Project Manager completed their doctorate. Why? Because #USCIS simply isn't processing certain #OPT applications — and #H1B processing is much slower than normal times. In the past year, the #UnitedStates multiplied this loss of #innovation and #productivity by HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS! And with no detectable benefit to #security, etc.
Naturally, the highest-skilled foreign nationals are taking their skills to other countries, contributing to further #brainDrain from the #USA.
Incredible waste and inefficiency.

" ‘Genocide has two phases,’ Lemkin wrote in Axis Rule in Occupied Europe. The first involves the ‘destruction of the national pattern of the oppressed group’ – this was achieved in #Gaza by #Israel’s devastating bombing. The second involves the imposition of a design by the oppressor, like these reconstruction plans for Gaza."

"Today, with the memory of the Nakba still so vivid, #Palestinians are determined to stay. They will surely resist the effort by the settlers and the army to force them out en masse, yet with the war raging, the dangers they face have never been so great. If Palestinians in the #WestBank face a new catastrophe, it will not be one of exile."
