In a speech during the extended session of the G7 Summit in Canada, Lula described the Israeli offensive against the Palestinian population as “indiscriminate killing” and denounced the use of hunger as a weapon of war.
The statements go against the group’s position announced the previous day.
“In Gaza, nothing justifies the indiscriminate killing of thousands of women and children and the use of hunger as a weapon of war,” said the president, speaking before the leaders of the world’s major powers gathered in Kananaskis, Canada.

🇦🇷 The people stand with Cristina
Since the Argentine judiciary ratified the conviction of former president, Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (CFK), thousands have been rallying outside her home in a permanent vigil. Yesterday, tens of thousands mobilized in the Plaza de Mayo, the iconic square in front of the Casa Rosada presidential palace, to protest the political persecution of the progressive leader.
In what has been labeled as a new case of lawfare, full of irregularities, the Supreme Court ruled that CFK must serve six years of house arrest and, more importantly, that she be banned from working in the public sector for the rest of her life. Many analysts say the case is pure political persecution.

Pro-Palestine activist and Columbia graduate Mahmoud Khalil has finally been released from ICE custody on June 20 – following over three months of detention. He was forced to languish in ICE detention over 1,000 miles away from his wife, Noor Abdalla, with immigration authorities denying his request to be by Abdalla’s side for the birth of their first child.
Upon release from the GEO Group-run ICE detention center, Khalil briefly addressed reporters. “Trump and his administration, they chose the wrong person for this,” Khalil said. But no one “should be detained for actually protesting a genocide, for protesting their university, Columbia University, that is investing in the genocide of the Palestinian people,” he told reporters.
