Surviving war and #HIV: #Queer, HIV-Positive, and Running Out of Medication in #Gaza
by Afeef Nessouli, Steven W. Thrasher, January 13 2025
"Life in #NorthernGaza is precarious enough without having to worry about #AIDS. Airstrikes and ground raids are a constant threat that keep people from leaving their homes to find food. 'We have to conserve,' said E.S., a 27-year-old who lives with his mother and younger brother in the Tel al-Hawa neighborhood in southwest Gaza City. 'People are fighting each other to get the aid boxes.'
"And then there’s the issue of medication.
"'My doctor told me that the antiretrovirals have been consumed completely and there is nothing left in store,' said E.S., who is HIV-positive and agreed to speak with The Intercept using a pseudonym to avoid community stigma and targeting by the Israeli authorities.
"He needs #tenofovir, a common HIV medication, and #lopinavir / #ritonavir, a much more rarely prescribed one. At times, E.S. has had so little left that he dangerously began rationing his pills by skipping morning doses. 'There are no more supplies coming in or there hasn’t been any supplies at all coming in to the south or to the north,' he typed in a direct message. While Israel has denied blocking medication, international aid groups like #Glia have told The Intercept that HIV medication specifically has been blocked from entering the Gaza strip.
"Without these medications, E.S. — who already uses a walker for mobility — would see his health deteriorate rapidly. Within a short span of time, he would begin to move even more slowly, and he might lose the ability to walk altogether. With soldiers mandating mass displacement and sniping Palestinians as they try to evacuate, this could mean a death sentence.
"As Israel’s war on Gaza rages around him, E.S. has spent most of his time at home with his two cats. While many of his neighbors moved south to Rafah, he stayed put with his brother and mother, who is a cancer survivor. His limited mobility, the result of a viral infection exacerbated by HIV, made leaving more dangerous than staying.
"So they chose to stay north — despite warnings from the occupation military to evacuate. His home, while offering more protection than a tent, hasn’t exactly been safe: 'I saw people get sniped right across the street from me. It was a family of five trying to cross the road after they were ordered to evacuate their building before it was bombed.' He said the parents died and the children survived.
"E.S. used to get his medication from Al Rimal Martyrs Clinic, but it was evacuated and then reinhabited by displaced Palestinians.
"'Now, with the genocide happening, I fear not only my health deteriorating, but also how my family will respond,' he wrote. For years, his family didn’t acknowledge his HIV status; now he worries that his condition will be a liability for them."

Behind #Israel’s ‘end game’ for #Gaza: Theft of #OffshoreGas reserves
By Betsey Piette
November 14, 2023"In 1999, #BritishGas (BG) discovered the existence of natural gas in the #GazaMarineFields, 20 nautical miles off the coast of Gaza, at a depth of 610 meters below the surface. Further exploration by BG through two successful wells — Gaza Marine 1 and Gaza Marine 2 — determined the field could contain up to 1 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. (EgyptOil-Gas.com, April 5, 2018)
[Fast forward to 2022...]
"On June 18, [2022], Israel gave preliminary approval for the development of a gas field off the coast of Gaza, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu claiming progress would hinge on 'preserving the State of Israel’s security and diplomatic needs' and coordination with the Palestinian Authority and neighboring Egypt. At the same time, Hamas official Ismail Rudwan told Reuters: 'We reaffirm that our people in Gaza have the rights to their natural resources.'
"Two months before Oct. 7, [2023], the Pentagon began building a $35.8 million troop facility in Israel’s #NegevDesert, 20 miles from Gaza, allegedly as a radar site to monitor for missile attacks on Israel. The base is part of a 'secret' U.S. military presence in Israel. (The Intercept, Oct. 27)
"Since Oct. 7, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made it clear that Israel intends to kill as many Palestinians as possible in order to pressure others to leave the Gaza Strip and move to the Sinai in Egypt.
"Netanyahu has been adamant in refusing to order a cease-fire to let in aid to stop the horrific genocide being carried out in Gaza.
"The people of Gaza are well aware, as their grandparents experienced with the 1948 Nakba, that once Israelis forcefully remove Palestinians from Palestinian land, returning is a near impossibility.
"Israel’s genocidal war on Palestinians has not stopped the Israeli regime’s plans for further oil and gas exploration. On Oct. 29, Israel announced that it awarded 12 licenses for exploring additional offshore natural gas fields to six companies, including #BritishPetroleum and Italian energy giant #Eni. These awards show that Israel has no intention of letting the genocide it is carrying out against Gaza’s people interfere with its ongoing theft of Palestinian resources."

#Netanyahu is set to take the witness stand for the first time in his #corruption trial in #Israel
By TIA GOLDENBERG, December 9, 2024
JERUSALEM (AP) — "Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to take to the witness stand Tuesday for the first time in his trial on corruption allegations, a pivotal point in the drawn-out proceedings that comes as the leader wages war in Gaza and faces an international arrest warrant for war crimes charges.
"At home, Netanyahu is on trial for accusations of fraud, breach of trust and accepting bribes in three separate affairs. Netanyahu denies wrongdoing, but his appearance on the witness stand will be a low point in his decades-long political career, standing in contrast to the image of a sophisticated, respected leader he has tried to cultivate.
"The trial will take up a chunk of Netanyahu’s time at a crucial point for Israel. While he makes his case for weeks from the stand, he will still be tasked with managing the war in Gaza, maintaining a fragile ceasefire with the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and keeping tabs on threats from the wider Middle East, including Iran.

#Microsoft fires employees who organized #vigil for #Palestinians killed in #Gaza
By MATT O’BRIEN
Updated 11:19 PM EDT, October 25, 2024"Microsoft has fired two employees who organized an unauthorized vigil at the company’s headquarters for Palestinians killed in Gaza during #Israel’s war with Hamas.
"The two employees told The Associated Press they were fired by phone call late Thursday, several hours after a lunchtime event they organized at Microsoft’s campus in Redmond, Washington.
"Both workers were members of a coalition of employees called '#NoAzureForApartheid' that has opposed Microsoft’s sale of its cloud-computing technology to the #IsraeliGovernment. But they contended that Thursday’s event was similar to other Microsoft-sanctioned employee giving campaigns for people in need.
"'We have so many community members within Microsoft who have lost family, lost friends or loved ones,' said #AbdoMohamed, a researcher and data scientist. 'But Microsoft really failed to have the space for us where we can come together and share our grief and honor the memories of people who can no longer speak for themselves.'"

I'm seeing reports of #Israel using #BunkerBuster bombs, but did you know that #DepletedUranium is often used in those bombs?
"Often, these types of bombs use depleted #uranium in their casing, similar to certain shells, which enhances their strength. While this does not make them #nuclear weapons, it does disperse #radioactive contamination at the impact site, which can be felt in an area of several meters, at low levels."

#Israel used #DepletedUranium shells in Syria
By JPOST.COM STAFF
MAY 6, 2013"Israel used depleted uranium shells in the alleged strike in Syria on Sunday, a senior Syrian military source told Russia Today on Monday.
"'When the explosion happened it felt like an earthquake, then a giant golden mushroom of fire appeared. This tells us that Israel used depleted uranium shells,' the source said.
"Depleted uranium is a byproduct of the production of enriched uranium for use in nuclear reactors. It is 2.5 times as dense as steel, which allows it to penetrate heavy protection. The material is known to be #toxic, but not dangerously #radioactive.
"Syrian state television claimed the bombing occurred around a military research facility at #Jamraya. The New York Times reported that the strike also targeted the bases of the elite Republican Guard and storehouses of long-range missiles."

[Listen] #Palestine #IAEA rep: #Israel not international community’s ‘darling’ any more
#SalahAbdelShafi discusses Israel’s alleged #DepletedUranium use in #Gaza and #nuclear threats.
9 Jun 2024
"Salah Abdel Shafi discusses Israel’s alleged use of depleted uranium in Gaza and the unsettling nuclear threats by Israeli ministers. Highlighting the inaction of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in escalating these issues to Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu’s government, Abdel Shafi sheds light on the urgency and gravity of the situation. Salah Abde Shafi, the Palestinian permanent representative to the IAEA, talks to Al Jazeera."

Not the first time #Israel has used #DepletedUranium on civilian populations...
From 2015: VP/HR — Gaza Strip and bombs with depleted uranium
March 3, 2015
"There is now enough convincing data to prove that Israel has repeatedly used depleted uranium [#DU] weaponry. Such was the case in the large-scale massacre that took place in the #GazaStrip in August 2014.
"These weapons cause #cancers and #foetal malformations in the populations affected, which may take on epidemic proportions. In #Iraq, in the city of #Fallujah, where these bombs were launched in industrial quantities by the International Coalition led by the# UnitedStates, 52% of children today are born with #deformities.
"The lethal effects of #radioactivity caused by explosions and subsequent fires, including cancer of the lungs and pleura, can persist for centuries in the #environment and particularly in #aquifers. We are therefore on the verge of another humanitarian catastrophe in #Palestine and in particular in the #Gaza Strip, where thousands of tons of depleted uranium bombs were dropped with the effects that have already been documented.
"In view of this situation, what is the Vice-President/High Representative thinking of doing to pressure Israel into assuming its responsibilities for this crime against humanity, and what help can the Vice-President/High Representative offer to the Palestinian authorities to carry out epidemiological monitoring, which also includes all EU citizens who have moved to the territory since then?"

#Israel using internationally banned bombs in #Lebanon, chemists union says
October 7, 2024
"The Syndicate of Chemists in Lebanon (#SCL) warned yesterday that the extent of destruction and the depth of damage to buildings and the ground confirms the use of internationally banned bombs containing #DepletedUranium by #Israeli forces, warning of the risk of contracting many diseases as a result of inhaling the [#radioactive] dust caused by the bombing.
"It said in a 'very important warning” that it condemns “the barbaric aggression against civilians in Lebanon and the massacres being committed against the Lebanese people,' noting that the warning aims 'to raise awareness about the effects of inhaling the dust from Israeli bombings in several Lebanese areas.'
"'The extent of destruction and the penetration of buildings and ground by dozens of metres is evidence of the use of #bombs containing depleted #uranium, which has tremendous penetrating power,' it added.
"The SCL stressed that “the use of such types of internationally banned weapons, especially in densely populated #Beirut, leads to massive destruction, and their dust causes many diseases, especially when inhaled.'
"The SCL called on 'the international community to stop the aggression against Lebanon, and to stop the use of internationally banned bombs.'
"It also called on the Lebanese state to file a lawsuit with the #UNSecurityCouncil 'against the violations taking place on Lebanese soil and the attempted mass killings of innocent #civilians.'"
