"It seems that these bricks get their red colour from the blood of the bonded labour."
The spiraling debt trapping Pakistan's brick kiln workers... where generations are held hostage for a small loan that was taken out in need.
THREAD 👇
4.5 million people, including children, work in almost 20,000 brick kilns across Pakistan to pay off family loans taken from business owners.
What was once a small loan ends up trapping generations into bonded labour.

One year ago, a ceasefire was announced in Gaza. Today, Israel continues to:
⚫ Kill Palestinians and destroy civilian infrastructure
⚫ Restrict aid and cut essential services
⚫ Force people into an ever-shrinking space
This is not a ceasefire, this is a genocide.

In three years of Israel's genocide, nearly 300 journalists and media workers have been killed in Gaza, 12 of them from Al Jazeera.

Pay attention to how propaganda is cobstructed:
The US just deliberately bombed an Iranian wedding party, but somehow the BBC has managed to make Iran sound like the aggressor.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The four killed at the wedding were reportedly Iranian civilians in southern Iran hit by shrapnel from a US missile strike, after which Iran attacked US targets.

Israel has said that paper kites flown by Palestinian children will be treated as weapons of war.
Read that again.
This is the reality of genocide: the total destruction of innocence, freedom and joy.
End all military cooperation with Israel, now.

If you left an empty seat for each person you’ve killed in Gaza, the stadium would be empty.
85 empty seats.
This Sunday, millions of fans will gather to cheer for their national teams in the FIFA World Cup Final.
But 85 voices from Argentina will be missing.
They belong to the victims of the 1994 AMIA terrorist bombing in Buenos Aires, an attack planned by the Iranian regime and carried out by Hezbollah.
Behind every terrorist attack are lives stolen and futures cut short.
We remember. We stand against terror. Always.

Best World Cup ever. Storm delayed games, hydration breaks, fans refused visas, Iranians treated like vermin, referees refused entry, cops kicking off over players taking pictures with kids, Infantino crying it in for Argentina and now a pedo bending the rules. Good job👍

This is how pathetic and weak Israel is.

A study has found that major UK media outlets, including BBC, Sky News, and The Guardian, often downplay Israeli violations and portray Palestinians in dehumanizing ways in their coverage of the Gaza Strip.
According to the findings, the BBC in particular has frequently avoided explicitly naming Israel as responsible in reports on civilian casualties since 2023.

Boycott @etihad Airways.
We are proud to welcome Etihad Airways back to Israel. 🇮🇱🇦🇪
Once again, Etihad is the first to resume its flights, proving that true partnership is measured by consistency and an uncompromising commitment. In just a few years, Etihad has become a favorite for many Israelis, ranking as the 8th most popular airline in the country for 2025.
Thank you for being a reliable bridge between our nations and for always leading the way. Welcome back! ✈️
