How are Palestinians in Gaza reacting to Iran’s attacks on Tel Aviv? Israel has already announced the postponement of its deathblow assault against Rafah. For the first time in seven months of internecine warfare, there was a break from the 24/7 threat and airborne sound blasts.
But what is the deeper political significance of the escalation between Israel and Iran for Palestine? – “I think last night’s attack was carried out to calm down the internal front in Iran,” feared one resident in Rafah, while another said, “[Iran] were supposed to support us; that is what we were expecting.

Following the police crackdown on the Palestine Congress in Berlin yesterday, organizers remained resolute during today’s press conference. Yesterday’s event was disrupted within minutes when police stormed the stage and forcibly disbanded the gathering.
The planned three-day summit was swiftly banned, resulting in several arrests. The activists announced plans for protests against the repression, warning authorities, “You will not be excused for what you did.”
German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser took to social media to applaud the “crackdown,” a sentiment echoed by mainstream media outlets. In the lead-up to the congress, organizers were subjected to absurd and extensive smear campaigns.
Internationally, Germany’s crackdown on pro-Palestine activism has drawn severe criticism, including condemnation from Amnesty International. The congress aimed to explore strategies to challenge Germany’s complicity in Israel’s genocide, particularly its role in supplying 50% of Israel’s weapons.

And then they announced that they were shutting down the entire event, which had only been allowed to run for about 20 minutes. It was due to run for three days.

URGENT: German police have announced they are shutting down the Palestine Congress and demanded delegates leave immediately. They have threatened to use force and already arrested one of the organizers, Jewish activist Udi Raz, the third person to be arrested today — two of them Jewish.
The announcement comes after police stormed the speakers' stage just 20 minutes after the congress had begun, shut down the organizers' livestream and then broke into the control room and shut off the power.
Police then went round to each delegate and demanded they stop livestreaming from their phones.
900 police are deployed to the congress, whose start they held up for hours. They demanded that organizers allow all German media into the congress, ironically to "safeguard free speech" and then denied entry to most of the registered delegates.
The primary aim of the congress was to raise awareness about Germany's complicity in Israel's genocide, for which it is facing charges in the ICJ.

What is the Palestine Congress in Berlin?
The event has mainstream media, politicians and Zionist organizations fuming. But despite all the repression, slander and police assaults, the congress is going ahead.
The objective of the event is to explore strategies to challenge Germany's complicity in Israel's genocide. Organizers anticipated over 1,000 participants, including numerous international speakers, but the German state is doing everything to sabotage it, and improvising obstacles to prevent speakers and delegates from attending.
Germany weaponizes its Holocaust guilt to justify its unconditional support for Israel which includes supplying 50% of Israel's weapons. But for all its talk about guilt, Germany's unresolved history of denazification remains conveniently swept under the rug.
Here's a snapshot of the frenzy within mainstream media leading up to the Palestine Congress. Stay tuned for real-time reporting from the ground in Berlin.

Watch Germany's Jewish Voice chair, Wieland Hoban, respond to accusations of antisemitism by the German media at the press conference for the highly anticipated Palestine Congress.
For weeks, German media has smeared the congress, dubbing it a "gathering for the world's antisemites." In a spectacular example of truth reversal, the media has had nothing to say about Germany's crackdown on Jews who criticize Israel, which hit a new low when the Sparkasse bank shut down Jewish Voice's bank account. The bank also requested a list of their members.
Jewish Voice is a co-organizer of the Palestine Congress, which is due to begin today and last until Sunday. It aims to raise public awareness of Germany's complicity in Israel's genocide in Gaza, for which Germany is facing charges in the International Court of Justice.

The three-year Great Palestinian Revolt against British rule began on this day in 1936. The dire poverty caused many Palestinians to be plunged into British colonial rule, as well as the influx of Zionist settlers and the start of the Zionist project. The issues that underpinned the massive strikes and armed rebellion of Palestinians during the revolt foreshadowed the massive ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in 1948 and the formation of Israel. Read on.

Protesters in Niger have mobilized against the unwanted US military presence in their country. The capital Niamey saw chants including; "Down with American imperialism" and "The people's liberation is on the march."
The US currently has around 650 military personnel in Niger and operates a large airbase outside the capital. Niger's government ended its longstanding cooperation agreement with the US in mid-March, but the US has still not left the country.
Niger has already expelled the French military presence in 2023 after Nigeriens said that their presence had become a defacto occupation of the country.
The French and US military presence was justified in the name of fighting terrorism in the Sahel region. Still, now Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso have set up their joint operation without Western powers, who they say have destabilized the region and thereby contributed to the rise of terrorism.

Ongoing pogroms perpetrated by Israeli settlers in various parts of the Occupied West Bank have resulted in widespread destruction and casualties.
In Ramallah and Nablus, dozens of Israeli settlers launched attacks on villages, setting fire to dozens of homes and vehicles while also opening fire on unarmed Palestinians.
Video footage depicts Palestinians confronting the armed settlers with stones in an attempt to defend themselves.
Reports indicate that one Palestinian was fatally shot, and an additional 25 individuals sustained injuries.
The escalation of violence purportedly stemmed from the disappearance of a 14-year-old Israeli, further exacerbating tensions and heightening fears of continued bloodshed.
Since the commencement of the war on Gaza on October 7, raids conducted by Israeli settlers and soldiers on occupied West Bank communities have escalated, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of Palestinians.

PALESTINE CONGRESS UPDATE: German police have begun arresting participants of the congress in Berlin before it has even started. The event was due to begin at 12pm local time but police are stopping people from entering demanding that organizers allow all German media entry.
Hundreds of people are being stopped from entering the congress by police who are pressuring organizers to accept their extraordinary demand.
Organizers insist on maintaining their accreditation process to ensure the smooth running of the event and highlight that the venue’s capacity is limited, ie. if there is no limit on press entry, those who have bought event tickets may be unable to attend.
Police say their unprecedented demand, is necessary to ensure “freedom of the press”, the same press which has been uncritically churning out pro-Israel propaganda since October 7.
