“The smell of death was everywhere”
Ahmed Abu Hussein, a Palestinian forcibly displaced from his home in Gaza, left his elderly parents behind, believing they would be safe due to their age.
However, the Israeli army committed a war crime by using them as human shields, their unidentifiable bodies were found after the withdrawal.

We were very sorry to hear of Leila Khaled’s stroke. She is an enduring symbol of Palestinian resistance who has inspired several new generations of freedom fighters. We hope very much that she will have a full and speedy recovery.

Three years ago this month, the dockworkers went on strike. It was my first time experiencing a strike as a union representative. That struggle taught me a great deal about unions and collective bargaining.
I witnessed the tangible strength of the working class when they stood together, but I also came to understand the limitations of trade unionism. While unions can organise workers to fight for better wages and conditions, they ultimately operate within, and often uphold, the framework of capitalism, attempting to negotiate, and reform, rather than overturn it. As long as they exist to mediate between labour and capital, they can never be a vehicle for true emancipation—only a battleground where workers catch glimpses of their own power.

Where the chains of capitalism are forged, there they must be broken. Trade unions are absolutely indispensable for the daily defence of workers’ interests, but they are not a means for the overthrow of capitalism. They cannot do away with the wage system; they can only confine themselves within its boundaries.

🇰🇷 South Korea opposition brings motion to impeach acting president
South Korean opposition parties raised a motion to impeach acting President Choi Sang-mok on Friday, the majority Democratic Party said, in a move likely to escalate recent political strife in the country.
Although the motion starts a process that would lead to a vote by parliament to pass it by a simple majority, the timetable was not immediately clear.
Choi has angered opposition parties, which have a commanding majority in parliament, by repeatedly vetoing bills and holding off appointing a Constitutional Court justice approved by the assembly who is viewed as liberal-leaning.

🇨🇳🌿 Longji Rice Terraces (“Dragon Ridge”)
The Longji Rice Terraces are a stunningly beautiful site created by the local Zhuang and Yao ethnic minorities.
The terraces were built during the Ming Dynasty and completed in the early Qing Dynasty, and are now more than 650 years old. They are all distributed at an altitude of 300 m to 1,100 m above sea level, and the greatest slope of the terraces can reach 50°.
The Longji Rice Terraces (Dragon's Ridge) got their name because they resemble dragon scales, and the top of the mountain range resembles a dragon's spine. #China #nature #destinations

America’s proxy war against Russia has failed
The European ruling class is in disarray over how best to handle this unwelcome reality – or even whether to admit to it at all.

Under no pretext should arms and ammunition be surrendered; any attempt to disarm the workers must be frustrated, by force if necessary. The destruction of the bourgeois democrats’ influence over the workers, and the enforcement of conditions which will compromise the rule of bourgeois democracy, which is for the moment inevitable, and make it as difficult as possible – these are the main points which the proletariat and therefore the League must keep in mind during and after the approaching uprising.
