The rapid gains made by the Sudanese army in the past few hours in central Khartoum point to a complete collapse in the ranks of the RSF in the city. If the same happens in east and south Khartoum, the army will announce the city clear of the janjaweed much sooner than expected.

The shelling is intensifying. Drones and quadcopters are very low in the sky. Strikes seem imminent. What a horrifying time!

The airstrike has just hit a home in the northeast of Deir al-Balah near Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital. The smoke has covered the sky. Literally alarming times across Deir al-Balah, which has been hit first since the start of the attacks.
Breaking: An airstrike has shaken our home in Deir al-Balah. Terrifying and unbearable. Horrific as drones and warplanes are hovering overhead.

The UK is deeply complicit in #Israel's war crimes, continuing to provide F-35 parts as Israel flagrantly violates #IHL. This time killing at least 413 Palestinians incl. many children overnight. On Thursday Israel received three new F-35 jets made with UK components🧵

Ramy Abdu: “Indeed we belong to God, and indeed to Him we will return.” I feel immensely sad at their departure, but it is God's will. "My sister + piece of my heart, Nisreen/Umm Obaida, and her dear children Obaida, Omar, and Liyan, and Obaida's wife Malak and their children Suwar + Mohammed...To the highest heavens"... There is no power or strength except with God.

New waves of displacement all across the enclave: Rafah in the south, central Gaza's northern regions, and Gaza's border areas. Again, again, and again
People are fleeing on foot from the Tal Al-Sultan neighborhoods, west of Rafah.

You want to resist Trump? You want to really understand how to resist? Demand an end to your tax dollars going to support the genocide in Gaza. Demand an end to military funding to Israel. Demand the end to the transfer of weapons. This is what your $$ did today.

Seems like Israel started spreading rumors that Hamas plans to attack inside 48-occupied Palestine (AKA Israel). This is most likely, once again, a way to manufacture global consent to another massacre in Gaza.
