Transport workers in Peru are on their third national strike this month against a wave of crime that has exploded under the neoliberal coup government of Dina Boluarte. Union members blocked off all key roads around the capital and beyond.
Workers are routinely the target of robberies, extortion, and assault. The trigger for these protests is a new security law passed by the right-wing government that, instead of providing security for workers, is focused on criminalizing protests.
The current government in Peru was not democratically elected and was a product of the coup against President Pedro Castillo in December 2022. The regime carried out numerous massacres in the Andean regions against Indigenous protesters who were calling for the return of democracy and freedom for Castillo.

🟡 BREAKING: Israeli tanks are besieging and firing shells at Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of the few remaining operational medical facilities in Gaza. The hospital is treating scores of casualties from the Israeli army’s 20-day assault in the north.
“The doctors were shocked by the approach of tanks and bulldozers; the hospital was hit. There are patients in critical condition on ventilators. The hospital is completely surrounded, and they are shooting at the windows. We were awaiting humanitarian aid, and the tanks arrived instead.”
— Hussam Abu Safyia, Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital

Violent clashes erupted in Case-Pilote on the French colony of Martinique. While the French police attempted to dismantle the barricades, they violently arrested a young person with disabilities. Witnesses say the situation escalated due to excessive force used during an identity check, leading to the violent arrest of multiple protesters.
The organizers from the Rassemblement des Partis et des Groupes Progressistes de la Martinique (RPPRAC) condemned these violent interventions, emphasizing that the community does not deserve such brutality.
Discussions took place between the mayor, Jean-Marc Bocquet, and RPPRAC members in an effort to defuse the escalating conflict. Bocquet expressed concern for public safety while advocating for the protesters’ right to demonstrate peacefully. He also reported troubling incidents, including the arrest of a municipal worker.

A major starvation crisis is unfolding in southern Gaza. While the north faces a brutal assault by the Israeli military, conditions in the south are also deteriorating. Israel’s ongoing blockade of food and aid has left the population on the brink of famine. “If life continues like this, there will be worse hunger than in the north.”

Unrest in Lisbon intensified for the second day as protesters continued to express their outrage over the killing of Odair Moniz, a Black working man fatally shot by the police in Cova da Moura. In a shocking escalation, police raided homes, including that of Moniz’s mourning family, assaulting a 19-year-old girl and causing damage to their property. The family condemned the aggression, with Moniz‘s sister-in-law accusing the officers of needlessly using violence.
The community‘s anger has only grown, with protesters setting fire to buses and other acts of defiance emerging across Lisbon. Moniz‘s family refutes the police narrative that he posed a threat, asserting he was peaceful and not involved in criminal behavior. They also dismissed claims about a stolen vehicle, stating it belonged to him and accusing the police of trying to cover up their mistake. The officer responsible for the shooting has been placed on temporary leave as an investigation is conducted into the killing.

Watch Fidel Castro’s iconic speech in Harlem, New York, heldtoday in 1995, about the successes of the Cuban revolution.
Castro received a rapturous reception in the predominantly Black area not only because of his strong anti-racist and anti-imperialist credentials, but also due to the success of the Cuban Revolution.
Following a speech at the United Nations General Assembly, Castro wasn't welcomed at a reception held by then US President Bill Clinton at the New York Public Library.
Instead, he returned to Harlem, an area he had previously visited in 1960 when he visited the UN for the first time as the Cuban leader.
Back then he was invited to stay at the Theresa Hotel by Malcolm X leading to a historic meeting between the two revolutionary leaders.

The platform Bluesky suspended our account without any prior warning or explanation.
Bluesky advertises itself as a project aiming to “develop an open and decentralized standard for social media.” It claims its mission was to restore power to the users, which had been eroded by centralized Tech companies like Meta and Google. So much for that.
Ever since Antony Blinken's directive to treat us and other alternative media like “foreign agents,” the US-led censorship crackdown has escalated.

🟡 Breaking: Hamas spokesperson Osama Hamdan in a live-aired speech:
“We renew our call for the Arab and Muslim world as well as people all over the world to escalate and activate all sorts of protests in all the capitals around the world to work towards pressuring the US and all the countries supporting the Israeli occupation.”
Israeli journalist Antonia Yamin just casually threatens all Arabs in Germany on TV. “Every dog gets their own,” she says, addressing any possible Arab viewers.

Libertarian President Javier Milei had an awkward moment yesterday as student protesters in Argentina stormed the central plaza, but he came out to greet them as he thought they were supporters coming to wish him a happy birthday. Police quickly rushed to close off the area when they realized that the crowd were not Milei supporters.
Student protests and occupations have now entered their second week with over 80 campuses taken over by students across Argentina.
The country’s universities were once considered the best in South America. They now face devastating cuts as Milei blocked budget increases in line with inflation. This means that their current resources are massively devalued due to the 209% inflation rate under the free-market regime of Javier Milei.

It’s not just Israel that shows contempt for UN officials; now the German government does, too.
UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese asked German FM Annalena Baerbock to explain her remarks that have sparked international condemnation: that civilian areas in Palestine and Lebanon should lose their protected status so that Israel can carpet bomb them.
When asked about Albanese’s request, Baerbock’s ministry dismissed it on the false grounds that the video of her own words (yours truly, us at red.) comes from the “Russian disinformation ecosystem.”

🟡 NOW: In yet another significant escalation, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has officially backed reports about the DPRK having sent troops to Russia to assist its war effort in Ukraine. The Republic of Korea (ROK) said that the DPRK has sent 3,000 troops to Russia, with 10,000 more expected in the country by December.
The ROK has previously vowed to take a hard-line response to the DPRK sending troops to Russia, including the potential shipment of offensive weapons and intelligence personnel to Ukraine.
Several other of Ukraine’s Western allies have also issued warnings, while discussions on whether countries in Europe should send their own troops to support Ukraine have been revived.

Happy birthday to Black Panther Party (BPP) co-founder and chairman Bobby Seale!
Inspired by Malcolm X, revolutionary independence movements in Africa, and anti-colonial thinkers such as Frantz Fanon, Seale, and Newton founded the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense in 1966. Together, they drafted the revolutionary ten-point program that laid the groundwork for the BPP's radical legacy as a movement fighting to achieve Black liberation through revolutionary socialism.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro explains why capitalism is destroying the environment as he inaugurated COP16, which is being held in his country.
