>> The overland humanitarian convoy bound for Gaza arrived in Libya Sunday morning as part of an international plan to break the siege on Gaza, carrying tons of humanitarian and medical aid prepared through intensive popular and official efforts.

>> The convoy is scheduled to follow a carefully coordinated route beginning from main gathering centers in Libyan cities, passing through the Musaid border crossing on Libya’s eastern border, then into Egyptian territory via Al-Salloum crossing. High-level logistical coordination is being carried out with the Egyptian Red Crescent to secure the trucks’ passage along the international highway to the Sinai Peninsula, before heading directly to the Rafah land crossing …

Global Sumud Flotilla Demands Urgent EU Intervention After Two Civilians Abducted and Disappear — Global Sumud Flotilla (2026-05-01)

https://globalsumudflotilla.org/press/global-sumud-flotilla-demands-urgent-eu-intervention-after-two-civilians-abducted-and-disappear/
------

>> The #GlobalSumudFlotilla is calling for immediate intervention from Members of the European Parliament following the disappearance of two civilian participants on a humanitarian mission to Gaza after Israeli naval forces intercepted vessels engaged in a humanitarian mission…

>> Time is critical. This is about more than two individuals. It is about whether Europe will uphold the rule of law when it comes to Gaza, or allow it to be suspended in the face of Israeli actions.

>> Inaction risks enabling unlawful detention and further attacks on civilian efforts to break the siege on #Gaza. We are calling for immediate political and diplomatic intervention.

April 29, 2026 - Letter to Le Moyne College in support of Mosab Abu Toha - Genocide and Holocaust Studies Crisis Network

https://www.ghscn.org/letters-and-statements

>> We write on behalf of the Steering Committee of the Genocide and Holocaust Studies Crisis Network (#GHSCN), an international network of more than 800 scholars and practitioners in genocide and Holocaust studies, to express our profound alarm at your statement condemning the remarks made by Mosab Abu Toha during his recent appearance at Le Moyne College. Your statement not only disparages an internationally acclaimed, prize-winning writer and witness but also advances claims that misrepresent our field’s basic terms of scholarly inquiry as well as legal distinctions codified in international law…

>> The outrageous draft UN Security Council resolution introduced by Bahrain to expand the US-Israel war of aggression on Iran will reportedly not be voted on today. Sponsors are pretending that the vote was delayed for the Good Friday holiday, but, in fact, they do not have the votes necessary to pass it, and they also face opposition from three P5 members with veto power (Russia, China, France). The sponsors are continuing efforts to negotiate the draft. Let’s hope that SC members have the good sense the to hold the line against this terrible resolution.

>> Since October 7, the Palestinian kuffiyeh has been criminalized by German authorities and institutions out of support for Israel and Zionism. A new campaign is challenging this “hypocritical and deceitful ‘culture of remembrance.’”…

German Tabloid Bild Reports Berlinale Head Tricia Tuttle On Way Out (Deadline, 2026-02-25)

>> Germany’s Minister of Culture has called a meeting on Thursday to discuss the direction of the Berlin Festival in the wake of a German political backlash against pro-Palestinian speeches at the closing ceremony on Saturday.

>> Bild, which has an openly pro-Israel editorial line, had previously taken a potshot at Tuttle on Tuesday in a column … accused the festival director of having “posed for Gaza propaganda” …

>> Tuttle was seen as having successfully calmed the waters, through mediation and discussion behind the scenes, as well as a carefully thought through set of guidelines on the festival’s position on freedom of expression, antisemitism and support for Palestinians but after a more tranquil 2025 edition, 2026 has proved otherwise.

With the full letter text and list of signatories.

>> In the open letter, the signatories assert that they “fervently disagree” with Wenders views on filmmaking and politics. “You cannot separate one from the other,” …

>> The letter notes that the #Berlinale has made “clear statements” in the past about “atrocities” carried out against people in Iran and Ukraine.

>> “We call on the Berlinale to fulfil its moral duty and clearly state its opposition to Israel’s genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes against Palestinians, and completely end its involvement in shielding Israel from criticism and calls for accountability,” it concludes.

At the Berlinale, Art Is Political. Except on Palestine. (Hanno Hauenstein, 2026-02-15)

https://hannohauenstein.substack.com/p/the-most-political-film-festival
———

>> … #WimWenders was asked by journalist #TiloJung about Gaza genocide and Germany’s selective solidarities when it comes to Palestine. … Wenders insisted: “We have to stay out of politics.” … Film, he suggested, is “the opposite of politics.” The rest of the jury agreed or said nothing.

>> International coverage … followed. The two Arab-language films Sad Song of Touha and The Dislocation of Amber were both publicly withdrawn.

>> It would be unfair to say that the #Berlinale never screened films on #Palestine … But when confronted with a direct question about #Gaza, Wenders’ reply felt like … a textbook example of the German cultural sphere’s deference to an official narrative that — while no longer able to downplay the sheer scale of Israel’s eradication of Gaza — now prefers to avoid the subject altogether…
