Speciesism: the most normalized injustice. We reject racism and sexism but still treat animals as resources instead of individuals. Their lives are their own, not ours to exploit. It’s time to end the hypocrisy. 🌱✊ #EndSpeciesism #VeganForTheAnimals #JusticeForAll"

Hamas argued that Benjamin Netanyahu’s reliance on American proposals to extend the first phase was a clear attempt to avoid honouring the agreement. Hamas condemned Netanyahu's edict to halt humanitarian aid, calling it a form of blackmail, a war crime, & a direct violation of the ceasefire deal.
