Lebanon to file protest against Israel at UN Security Council
Lebanon will lodge an urgent protest against Israel at the United Nations Security Council, Prime Minister Najib Mikati said on Thursday.
"Lebanon is in the eye of the storm, feels deep concern over what is happening at its southern border, which is a result of repeated Israeli provocations and repeated Israeli violations of UN Resolution 1701," Mikati added in a statement.

Gaza medics say Israel targeting ambulances, health facilities
Medical organisations say Israeli air attacks have hit health services in what could constitute a war crime.
Talal Taha and his team at the al-Shifa Hospital, Gaza City’s largest, received an emergency call on Saturday evening and leaped into action. Earlier that day, Israel had begun pummelling the sealed-off Gaza Strip following a stunning attack by armed Palestinian group Hamas on Israeli territory.
Three vehicles headed to a location in the vicinity of the city’s eastern cemetery. The team followed the sound of cries for help as the city was enveloped in darkness.
“All of a sudden we were targeted [by an air attack] and we ran for safety,” Taha, a paramedic, told Al Jazeera. The emergency team jumped into their cars on Salah al-Din Road and the vehicles proceeded a few metres before another air strike hit.
Three of his colleagues were killed and Taha was lightly injured. “Our mission is humanitarian, we provide humanitarian service only, and we were targeted without any reason, without any excuse,” he said.
It was no one-off incident. Health authorities and medical organisations in the Gaza Strip have accused Israel of deliberately bombing ambulances and health facilities in the besieged enclave, in breach of international rules that catalogue such attacks as war crimes.
The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) on Wednesday condemned “the intentional targeting of medical teams”, which killed “four paramedics in less than half an hour today, despite prior coordination”.
“Targeting medical personnel is a grave breach to international humanitarian law and to humanity,” the organisation said in a statement on Wednesday. “PRCS demands accountability for this war crime, urging immediate investigation and justice for the victims.”
The health ministry in Gaza also denounced what it called “direct and systematic attacks on ambulances”.
“Targeting ambulances blatantly contradicts international laws and treaties that protect health facilities and services in places affected by armed conflicts,” it said on Tuesday.
At least 1,200 people have been killed in Gaza since the beginning of hostilities on Saturday, including hundreds of children and women, and more than 5,600 citizens have been wounded, the health ministry said.
Fifteen ambulances and nine health institutions have been hit, including the Ministry of Health building, the Rimal Clinic and the International Eye Center, it said.
Doctors Without Borders, (Medecins sans Frontieres, also known by its acronym MSF), said it had counted 16 medical personnel killed since Saturday, 18 ambulances destroyed and eight medical facilities damaged either totally or partially.
Sohaib Safi, medical coordinator for MSF in Gaza, said the scale of the damage was “very clear evidence” that medical aid in the enclave was being intentionally attacked by Israeli forces.
“When ambulances are trying to reach areas under fire, they are targeted as a message that no one should get inside to evacuate injured or stuck people,” Safi told Al Jazeera. As a result, taxis and private cars had increasingly been taking up the task of transferring the wounded to hospitals to avoid attracting attention.
Israel has been insisting that it warns civilians to evacuate buildings before striking them, through on the ground, many Palestinians have been hit without any warning. And Israel has made clear that it laying the stage for a ground invasion.
Israeli army spokesperson Jonathan Conricus on Wednesday said the Israeli military’s mission was “to make sure that Hamas, at the end of this war, won’t have any military capabilities by which they can threaten or kill Israeli civilians”.
Dwindling resources
At al-Shifa Hospital, it is not just patients and their families seeking help. Frightened Gaza City residents, too, have found shelter at the hospital, in the hope that it will not be attacked.
But already, the neonatal unit has been partly damaged due to bombardments around the facility, according to medical personnel.
Ghassan Abu-Sittah, a surgeon at al-Shifa Hospital, said the situation on Wednesday continued to deteriorate. “A number of patients, especially kids, are coming in with horrendous injuries,” he said.
“This morning we had a beautiful young girl with really indescribable facial injuries, whose mother is a doctor at al-Shifa and was killed when their home was targeted.”
Abu-Sittah added that the hospitals were full and were starting to run low on supplies.
“It’s all about a collapsing health system — the fact that there are 5,000 wounded in a health system with 2,500 bed-capacity,” he said. “It’s about patients not being able to get to the operating room space before there are no more operating rooms available.”
MSF’s Safi said the organisation had already used half of its emergency provisions, which it schedules to last two months in times of crisis.
Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant on Monday announced a full blockade of Gaza, including a ban on the admission of food, electricity and fuel into the territory.
Hospitals have had no access to the electrical grid and depend on fuel to power their generators. At al-Shifa Hospital, medical personnel estimated fuel supplies could last three to four days at most.
The acute shortage of medicines to cater to an ever-growing number of patients is already having severe repercussions on some of the most vulnerable patients. The Ministry of Health estimated that 9,000 patients in Gaza suffer from cancer and are in need of treatment.
Blood for transfusions, essential medicines, medical equipment and desalinated water are also needed across the Gaza Strip, medics said.
Mahmoud Shalabi, senior programme manager for the United Kingdom-based organisation Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) in Gaza, expressed concern for the prospect of a tightening blockade and a potential ground invasion.
“I hope not,” he told Al Jazeera. “Because [if so], this is going to be the worst humanitarian catastrophe that Palestinians have seen since 1948.”

US to send more arms to Israel before expected Gaza invasion
The US pledged to send more arms to Israel on Thursday ahead of an expected ground assault in Gaza against Hamas, as the UN warned food and water supplies were running dangerously low in the blockaded enclave.
As America’s top diplomat flew into Israel following Saturday’s surprise cross-border assault by Hamas, the UK also announced it would send two navy ships and would begin surveillance flights in its own show of support.
Antony Blinken, the US secretary of state, pledged his country’s support for Israel “today, tomorrow, every day”.He told the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, on a visit to the region that Israel “may be strong enough on your own to defend yourself but, as long as America exists, you will never, ever have to. We will always be there by your side”.
The declaration of solidarity came as Israeli troops continued to build close to Gaza before an expected ground invasion. Intense bombing of the narrow territory that is home to 2.3 million Palestinians continued for a sixth consecutive day as concerns mounted about a growing humanitarian crisis.
Israel declared war on Hamas on Saturday after hundreds of Islamic militants broke through the Gaza security fence to massacre approximately 1,300 people in Israel, including children. Gunmen seized a further 150 people, who are now being held hostage inside Gaza.
The death toll in Gaza rose above 1,400, including 447 children and 248 women, Gaza’s health ministry said, as Israel Defence Forces strikes continued to pound buildings and neighbourhoods.
Although Blinken offered unwavering support to Israel and condemned Hamas’s “reign of terror”, he also spoke of the Palestinian people’s “legitimate aspirations to live with equal measures of security, freedom, justice, opportunity and dignity”.
He told Netanyahu: “I come before you not only as the United States secretary of state but also as a Jew” and “a husband and father of young children …
“It’s impossible for me to look at the photos of families killed, such as the mother, father and three small children murdered as they sheltered in their home in Kibbutz Nir Oz, and not think of my own children.”
Angry protests, police policy and provocation
The number of participants of revolutionary May 1st demo was on the evening in different counts between 12 000 and 15 000. Clearly noticeable in times of crisis, and consequently was more brazen social wealth redistribution the anger of the participants.
Incompletely documented cases include at least 136 injured demonstration participants. Of these, more than 50 people in hospital in part because of severe head injuries treated. ...

Festival capacity 12,000. Kettering UK
Inviting festival-goers to slow down, reflect on how to be a loving activist and citizen, and hand-make healthy and strategic responses to injustices harming our world. Expect thoughtful provocation and threads of radical hope woven through every session across the weekend.
There were so many opportunities to find out more about – and take part in – Sarah’s gentle, quiet and creative campaigning.
A packed weekend for Sarah who wanted to do even more but there was no capacity:
1. Sold out and oversubscribed 'Stitchable Changemakers' 90min workshop for 50 participants to learn how they could use their gifts, talents, content and power to be the most effective and compassionate gentle protesters on issues they care about
2. 1. Sold out and oversubscribed 'Dream-Making ' 90min workshop for 50 participants to channel their anger and sadness at injustices they see into focusing on what utopian visions they want to see, hear, smell, touch and even taste as their dream
(e.g. save the bees changes to 'I dream of happy bees') which then helps each maker learn ways they can be part of the dream they wish to see - all based on neuroscience.
3. "Crafterthoughts' evening session where craftivists brought their own projects to Show and tell us about including the successes, challenges, learnings and answer any questions by others. Some people came with half formed ideas they wanted advice on from the group on how to deliver effectively and strategically. Some people came just to listen and learn. All made new connections and friends and you could feel the solidarity and encouragement in the room!
4. Sunday sunset last event was our climate craftivism performance: Craftivist Collective members joined members of Leena Norms’ Gumption Club wearing their upcycled 'Canary Craftivists' outfits to walk silently through the festival and sit as a flock to send photos and a handmade happy lifesized canary to the local MP and the owner of the festival grounds to encourage them to protest Greenbelt festival from the climate crisis and do what they can to act faster and bolder to create a healthier world
5. Planned pop-up appearance at The Caravan of Love for passersby to take part in a 10minute drop in craftivism workshop supporting Fashion Revolution to take home and 'shop drop'
6. Planned pop-up appearance under a free in the festival's mini forest area for passersby to take part in a 15minute drop in craftivism workshop choosing one of 5 Gentle Nudge messages on woven labels to sew into their clothes or accessories to encourage them as kind citizens and stewards of our planet
7. Overflowing tent of hundreds of people for Sarah interviewing Patrick Grant: BBC Great British Sewing Bee judge and fashion designer interviewing him about his work and book 'Less' whilst 3 craftivists sat on stage with us silently make Mini Fashion Statements during the session that Patrick then threw out into the audience encouraging them to 'shop-drop' these handwritten mini scrolls into fast fashion shop pockets or their friends pockets to encourage shoppers to ask 'who made these clothes' and be curious consumers
8. Sarah wrote and handstitched a prayer she was asked to read at the Sunday Communion on stage infront of thousands of attendees.
9. Throughout the festival Sarah was interviewed for social media teams for Greenbelt, Christian Aid and podcasts and had informal conversations with festival goers
