Not a century has been recorded that #jerusalem has NOT been under siege. The region and tribal conflict is literally a black hole for humanity.
An ancient living graveyard of #terror.
It's not to be understood but must be never forgotten. #war @palestine@israel
In other news, my poetry collection (two books in one binding) is finally out! It is in Russian (unfortunately, in some sense) and consists of texts, written between 2004 and 2016.
It is currently available in Moscow, Yerevan, and Tbilisi, and will come to Israel a bit later.

"The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees said Thursday that it was forced to shutter its headquarters in occupied East Jerusalem after a mob of Israeli extremists set fire to the perimeter of the facility, causing significant damage and endangering staffers inside the building."
Das UN-Palästinenserhilfswerk UNRWA schließt sein Büro in Ostjerusalem - zumindest vorerst. Das Leben der Mitarbeitenden vor Ort sei bei Fällen von Brandstiftung in ernster Gefahr gewesen.
Earlier today, Israeli settlers launched an attack on the #UNRWA headquarters in occupied #Jerusalem, setting fire to its surroundings. Israeli authorities have not intervened or made any arrests among the Israeli attackers.
Courts Order Evicting 35 Palestinians From East Jerusalem Homes; Properties to Be Allocated to Israeli Right-wing Groups
"Two Israeli courts ordered in the last few days the eviction of 35 Palestinians from their homes in the East Jerusalem's flashpoint Silwad and Sheikh Jarrah neighborhoods, ruling in favor of right-wing Jewish nonprofits.
"Israeli law only allows Jews to reclaim property based on ownership rights dating back to before Israel's establishment, and both eviction cases were the result of claims made by right-wing Jewish activists."
Human trafficking is always part of a #terrorist negotiation. The price per human life on display.
During this stage, Hamas would release all civilian women, children, elderly and sick hostages, in exchange for Palestinian women, minors, elderly and infirm prisoners, at a rate of 30 inmates for every hostage. @palestine @israel
Hamas would then release female soldiers at a price per soldier of 50 Palestinians — 30 serving life sentences and 20 others chosen by Hamas.
After 2000 years of tribal war over 500 miles of beachfront real estate plus #jerusalem, I don't think it's possible to conclude who started the fight.
The only thing missing is who will be brave enough to find the #peace.
Today marks the 76th anniversary of the Deir Yassin Massacre, when hundreds of armed Zionist militiamen from the pre-1948 #Irgun and #Stern gangs committed one of the cruelest massacres in the history of Palestine.
On April 9, 1948, Zionist gangs raided the village of Deir Yassin, west of #Jerusalem, killing nearly 250 Palestinian civilians, mainly women, children and the elderly. Cases of rape, mutilation and humiliation were documented.
Of nearly 70 #massacres during the 1948 #Nakba, Deir Yassin would become one of those atrocities where almost all the acts of war criminality were unleashed: killing, destruction, pillaging, rape, and displacement.
#DeirYassin is a powerful symbol of Palestinian dispossession, as well as a historical fact that the occupying Israeli regime must confront when retelling its national narrative.
#Israel / Tens of Thousands of Israeli Protesters Descend on Jerusalem as Netanyahu Warns of Early Election
The rally in #Jerusalem opens what its organizers call a "week of national protest", aimed at holding new elections as soon as possible. The unusual cooperation between protest organizations and some relatives of the captives comes after some of them lost hope in #Netanyahu and accuse him of deliberately sabotaging the deal negotiations.
While tens of thousands of people are protesting against him in front of the Knesset, #Netanyahu held a press conference this evening (Sunday) at the Prime Minister's Office in #Jerusalem, saying: "the first to welcome moving up the elections will be Hamas, this will harm the negotiations for the return of the captives."
Children among cancer patients fearing being sent back to Gaza by Israel
Moves to deport those receiving care in East #Jerusalem have been called ‘a deliberate risk to innocent lives’
Cancer patients from Gaza, including children, are living in a state of limbo in a hospital in East Jerusalem after Israeli authorities threatened to send them back.
The Guardian was given access to the Augusta Victoria hospital, where at least 22 patients from Gaza in urgent need of advanced cancer treatment are living in fear of deportation. As with numerous others, they received authorisation prior to Hamas’s 7 October attack to receive medical care outside the strip, due to the inadequate facilities in #Gaza.
