Video footage and eyewitness testimony suggest these contractors—many of them former U.S. soldiers—have repeatedly opened fire on Palestinians seeking food, raising serious concerns about…

The Israeli attack on Iran continues. Since Friday, IDF jets and missiles have hit sites across the country, carrying out targeted assassinations of key leaders and hitting buildings and other civilian infrastructure. Iran has retaliated in kind, firing missiles into Israel. The Trump administration, which knew about the secret Israeli attack from the beginning, appears…

When Israel launched a surprise military strike on Iran last week, it did more than risk igniting a catastrophic regional war. It also exposed long-simmering tensions in Washington—between entrenched bipartisan, pro-Israel hawks and a growing current of lawmakers (and voters) unwilling to be dragged into another Middle East disaster. “This is not our war,” declared Rep.

The scenes Willy Massay witnessed in Gaza were harrowing: children shot multiple times in the head, chest and groin; hospitals reduced to rubble; the smell of burning flesh and gunpowder lingering in the air.

With over half a million people in Gaza on the brink of starvation and aid groups warning of an “imminent famine,” Israel has agreed to allow a token number of relief trucks into the besieged enclave.

The New York Times has been awarded the prestigious Pulitzer Prize for its reporting on Gaza. This has shocked many who were paying attention to its coverage.
