"The Board of Peace is threatening Gaza’s land registry by perfecting the architecture the Coalition Provisional Authority formerly implemented in Iraq," says Dorgham Abusalim.
As a Gazan landowner, his response is clear: "no" to the plan.

Palestinians in Gaza face a difficult choice: Will the place they call home protect them through the coming winter, or will it bring about their death?
For Hassan Herzallah, he and others in Gaza hardly have a choice amid Israel's genocide.

Lebanon has long avoided both securing Palestinian refugee camps and legally recognizing Palestinian refugees. That must change, starting with faction disarmament and legal status for Palestinians that codifies rights, says Ali El Zein.

The mid-September Al Saada Building collapse in Gaza City represents a daily reminder to displaced Palestinians in the Strip: At any moment, a structure damaged by Israeli strikes can collapse with its inhabitants, writes Hassan Herzallah.

“Sudan's brutal civil war continues with no end in sight, largely due to the negative role of outside actors. The UAE's role is notable, enabled by US complicity that has allowed Abu Dhabi to perpetuate the fighting."
@husamom's analysis in @DAWN_Journal: dawnmena.org/the-uae-is-fuel…
Palestinian refugees in Lebanon have long struggled under a lack of security and legal recognition by the Lebanese state. That status quo must change, with Beirut adopting its legal responsibility to protect Palestinians, says Ali El Zein.

With over 2,000 structures in Gaza risking collapse, displaced Palestinians face another threat. Yet with limited options after Israel destroyed most structures there, many risk death for shelter, writes Hassan Herzallah from Gaza.

In Gaza and across occupied Palestine, land rights are crucial. Yet for Trump's Board of Peace, they represent an impediment. That's why the Board is recreating the U.S. playbook in Iraq with the intention of stealing that land, argues Dorgham Abusalim.

“Members of the European Parliament lamented the EU's inability to coordinate a cohesive response to the unauthorized military campaign against Iran" contributing to "the gradual collapse of international law."
Analysis from @KZiabari in @DAWN_Journal: dawnmena.org/the-e-u-abdicat…
The Sudanese civil war will not be solved through visa bans and short-term ceasefires if the roots of the conflict remain unaddressed. For @A_socialist1, that means focusing on the UAE's role in Sudan, particularly regarding the country's gold sector. dawnmena.org/the-u-s-wants-a…
As Saudi Arabia and the Houthi Movement (Ansar Allah) increasingly target each other, Riyadh is turning to religious rhetoric that is worsening the conflict. @Harbpeace explains why sectarianism is further fanning the flames of conflict in Yemen. dawnmena.org/saudi-leaders-t…
"Sudan's story is not primarily one of people choosing violence. Sudanese have been forced into the non-choice of a wage that affords them a chance at life," writes @A_socialist1. Performative actions by world leaders won't solve that problem, nor the war.

The Board of Peace in Gaza is "perfecting" the Coalition Provisional Authority's architecture that the United States used to govern Iraq. The goal is clear: Palestinian land confiscation, writes Dorgham Abusalim.
dawnmena.org/trumps-board-of…
Saudi Arabia is increasingly using dangerous religious rhetoric to justify its war against the Houthi Movement (Ansar Allah) in Yemen. Doing so risks inflaming the conflict by animating religious violence, writes @Harbpeace.

This is my latest essay, please find a quite moment to read it and let me know what you think.
The U.S. decision to impose a visa ban on Sudanese Armed Forces leader Abdel Fattah al-Burhan ahead of the UNGA was performative. It won't shift Sudan's conflict and once again leaves Sudanese in the dark, writes @A_socialist1.

“Rather than separating external security threats from domestic political dissent, Bahrain, Kuwait and UAE have increasingly blurred the two ... through the false narrative of insidious intent within their Shia populations."
Simon Mabon in @DAWN_Journal: dawnmena.org/how-the-war-wit…
"Saudi public wealth has become financially entangled with companies supplying Israel’s war in Gaza, utterly contrary to the values and sentiments of the Saudi people," writes @sarahleah1.

After alleged Houthi strikes on Mecca and Medina, Saudi Arabia has turned to religious rhetoric to whip up support for its assault on the Houthi Movement (Ansar Allah) in Yemen, presenting a dangerous path in the war, writes @Harbpeace.

"In Gaza, even a wheelchair meant to restore mobility can become impossible to use," writes @GhadaRozzi. Amid rubble, decimated healthcare, and Israel's blockade of assistive devices, Palestinians with disabilities face impossible choices.
