A Jewish memorial in Brighton, southeastern England, dedicated to the victims of the Hamas-led invasion of and massacre across southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, has been vandalized once again — one of more than 40 attacks on the site since it was first established.

 +
On Wednesday afternoon, the memorial — which is located in Palmeira Square, in the coastal city of Brighton and Hove — was found badly defaced, with pages displaying victims’ photographs ripped from a folder and strewn across the pavement.

Danon: UN accusation of genocide ‘without evidence’.
 +
Israeli Ambassador Danny Danon slammed the U.N.’s chief of humanitarian affairs for making baseless claims about the IDF’s war against Hamas.
 +
JNS Staff.
 +
(May 17, 2025 / JNS)
 +
[...]
 +
“To weaponize the word ‘genocide’ against Israel is not just distortion—it is the desecration and subversion of a term with unique force and weight,” the Israeli diplomat said.
 +
 +
Those who use the term seek to “demonize” their targets, Danon remarked.
 +
 +
On Thursday, Reuters reported that a new U.S.-backed humanitarian group, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), is set to begin operations in the Gaza Strip by the end of May.
 +
 +
The group aims to provide aid through a plan endorsed by Israel and supported by private American firms.

Anti-Israel propagandist Amanpour, of the first "genocide" propaganda promoters already weeks after Oct 7, on May 15, 2025, so excited to play the propaganda rhetoric clip of that UN guy, tried to push Wendy Sherman to use the G word. Sherman, though a very liberal and a critic of Israel especially radical against Netanyahu, still, did not follow Amanpour's order.
 +
 +
Though she was caught in on the 'bash only Israel.'
 +
On that Sherman's rhetoric, activist replied:
 +
 +
Arsen Ostrovsky 🎗️ @Ostrov_A:
 +
You’re right @wendyrsherman, you haven’t done everything possible.
 +
'You could’ve held Hamas accountable. And you could have pressured Qatar, and Egypt and Turkey, as well as obviously Iran, to reign in Hamas and release the hostages.'
 +
Christiane Amanpour
 +
@amanpour:
 +
"I don't think any of us have done all that we could or should when it comes to Gaza... We have led Palestinians in Gaza to a point of starvation," says former top U.S. diplomat @wendyrsherman.

The 'red line' that lead to Israel's decision to resume aid to Gaza.
 +
Explainer: Government reinstates limited humanitarian aid to Gaza under international pressure, bypassing coalition opposition and delaying a new US-led system aimed at starving Hamas of resources while balancing hostage risks.
 +
 +
Itamar Eichner | published: 06.19.25
 +
 +
Israel's right-wing government approved the resumption of humanitarian aid to Gaza on Sunday night, nearly two months after halting it at the end of the hostage deal. As reported by Ynet over six weeks ago, Israel had been preparing to reinstate aid delivery “within weeks” under a new mechanism involving an American foundation meant to prevent Hamas from seizing the supplies.
 +
However, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision does not yet implement the new system, which is still being finalized. In the meantime, Ynet has obtained and published the first images of armed and vest-clad personnel from the American company that’s expected to distribute the aid in Gaza through the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), an initiative backed by U.S. special Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff.
 +
 +
This decision comes as fighting intensifies and while 58 hostages are still believed to be held by terrorist groups in Gaza.
 +
Old method for now, limited in scope
 +
 +
Despite Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s assertion that “not a single grain” will reach Hamas, all aid entering Gaza in the coming days will follow the existing method: through border crossing at Kerem Shalom, distributed by the UN and aid organizations. This route has previously allowed Hamas to seize, sell and redistribute supplies to its members, though the UN claims there’s no conclusive proof.
