Israeli attacks killed at least 16 Palestinians, including children, women and police officers, as Israel’s genocide continued despite the ceasefire.

Key Developments

• Israeli attacks killed at least 16 Palestinians across Gaza during the past 24 hours.
• A family of three, including a six-year-old girl, was killed in an airstrike on Deir al-Balah.
• Six police officers, including Jabaliya Police Chief Col. Mohammed Marwan Salem, were killed in an attack on a police post.

At least 16 Palestinians, including children, women, police officers and people seeking humanitarian aid, were killed in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip during the past 24 hours, as Israel continued its genocide despite the ceasefire that entered into force in October 2025.

The attacks targeted homes, police facilities, displacement areas and civilian gathering points across northern, central and southern Gaza, leaving dozens more wounded.

Family Wiped Out

Among the victims were Omar Sami Ahmad Abu Qasim, 33, his wife Asma Ghazi Abu Qasim, and their six-year-old daughter Habiba, who were killed when an Israeli airstrike struck their apartment near Al-Baraka Roundabout in western Deir al-Balah.

The couple’s young son, Sami Omar Abu Qasim, survived the attack.

Palestinian sources later announced the death of Hani Iyad Talal Al-Ghoul, who succumbed to wounds sustained weeks earlier in an Israeli strike on Gaza City’s Sheikh Radwan neighborhood.

Israeli artillery also shelled the northeastern areas of Al-Bureij refugee camp, while large-scale demolition operations were reported in the Qizan al-Najjar area south of Khan Yunis.

In eastern Khan Yunis, Israeli drones dropped explosives near the Bani Suheila Roundabout as tanks continued firing toward residential neighborhoods.

Heavy artillery bombardment also continued in Gaza City’s Shuja’iyya neighborhood.

Police Post Targeted

In one of the deadliest attacks of the day, Israeli forces struck a police post in the Al-Falouja area west of Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza.

The strike killed Col. Mohammed Marwan Salem, director of the Jabaliya Police Station, along with officers Mufid Mohammad Halawa, Ghassan Akram Al-Daqs, Ibrahim Faisal Mousa, Samih Ramadan Al-Aswad, and Abdul Malik Abdul Nasser Abu Al-Jibeen, as well as Susan Abu Hindi Al-Araj.

According to witnesses, Israeli drones initially fired two missiles at the police post before launching two additional missiles after civilians gathered at the scene.

Medical sources said civilians waiting at the police station, along with women passing nearby, were among those wounded.

More Civilians Killed

Elsewhere in Gaza City, Ali Shamlakh and Nasser Al-Louh were killed after an Israeli drone struck civilians behind Sheikh Ajleen Mosque.

In southern Gaza, Bilal Abu Mousa, who had been attempting to secure humanitarian assistance, was shot and killed in Al-Mawasi, west of Rafah.

Earlier in the day, nine-year-old Moataz Abu Shaar was killed after being shot in the chest by Israeli forces operating northwest of Rafah.

Israeli military vehicles later advanced into the Al-Mawasi area while opening fire toward tents sheltering displaced Palestinians.

In another attack, Hussam Mohammad Ramadan Al-Shafei, 36, was killed and three others, including a child and a woman, were wounded in an Israeli strike on the Al-Qadisiyah area of Khan Yunis.

Bassem Armilat also died from wounds sustained during an Israeli attack on the same area two days earlier.

Ceasefire Violations Continue

Palestinian authorities said the latest killings form part of Israel’s continuing violations of the ceasefire through airstrikes, artillery shelling, shootings, demolitions and attacks targeting civilians across the Gaza Strip.

The attacks come as Israel maintains restrictions on humanitarian aid, commercial goods and civilian movement while continuing military operations throughout the enclave.

According to the latest figures released by Gaza’s Health Ministry, 1,123 Palestinians have been killed, 3,599 wounded and 800 bodies recovered since the ceasefire took effect on October 11, 2025.

Since the beginning of Israel’s genocide in October 2023, 73,247 Palestinians have been killed and 173,707 wounded, while thousands more remain missing beneath the rubble or in areas inaccessible to rescue crews.

THEY LOOK AFTER THEIR OWN

 We're at a place in the history of this country where the liberals are more pro-billionaire than even the conservatives have been . Asshat carney is committed to looking after the rich and no one else. Is this what bryan adams means when he says "up here we take care of our own"?

Carney’s pro-billionaire actions speak louder than liberal words

A CEO summit in Toronto highlights Mark Carney’s corporate, wealth-concentrating policies. The September get to together of the “the world’s largest investors” should be protested.

Last week the Liberals passed legislation granting cabinet the power to authorize the use of pesticides Health Canada has already deemed unsafe. In effect, Bill C-30 gives cabinet the ability to overrule science in the service of corporate profits.

Also last week Carney announced that part of his plan to improve housing affordability was to bail out corporate condo developers unable to sell already built million-dollar units. Rather than build social housing, $1.5 billion of federal money will go to bailout capitalists who’ve sought to maximize profits.

Immediately upon taking office the former Goldman Sachs banker and chair of Brookfield Assets cancelled a scheduled increase to the capital gains inclusion rate. Instead of paying tax on two thirds of the gains derived from their wealth, the reduction means capitalists only pay tax on half the money they’ve made. Those who make their income through labour still pay tax on 100% of their earnings.

In another early sop to wealth holders, Carney scrapped a small Digital Services Tax. As a result, the world’s largest internet giants will save a billion dollars annually.

Carney has instigated a slew of other measures that lower the tax burden on large enterprises. His government immediately deferred corporate income tax payments and GST/HST remittances and created the Productivity Super-Deduction and Scientific Research and Experimental Development (SR&ED) incentive.

Carney’s radical militarist agenda is also driving an upwards concentration of wealth. Arms production is notoriously capital, not labour, intensive. Additionally, the flow of public resources to arms production has already led to reductions in federal funds for social programs that disproportionately benefit the working class and poor.

As a pillar of his wealth-concentrating economic policy, Carney has promoted privatization and public-private partnerships. He’s seeking to privatize airports and established a $25-billion Canada Strong Fund to derisk major industrial projects. The Sovereign Wealth Fund will subsidize the risk of major corporate ventures.

At the same time Carney’s Major Projects Office tramples on indigenous rights and weakens environmental oversight for large corporate projects in energy and critical minerals. It empowers the government to fast-track infrastructure projects, weakening the requirement for free, prior, and informed consent mandated in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). In a sign of the capitalist, fossil fuel orientation of the legislation, Carney named the chair of the board of directors of Trans Mountain, Dawn Farrell, to be CEO of his government’s Major Projects Office.

Carney has turned to the corporate world for a slew of positions in his government such as the former CEO of Goldman Sachs Canada, Tim Hodgson, as energy minister and the CEO of the Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec Michael Sabia as Clerk of Privy Council. He’s also reintroduced Stephen Harper’s practice of regularly holding informal meetingswith Bay Street CEOs when in Toronto.

Carney’s pro-corporate measures are exacerbating an already spiralling inequality crisis. The top 1% of the tax bracket has a historically high proportion of income and Canada’s 86 billionaire families control more wealth than the country’s 6.2 million least wealthy families. One single Canadian, Changpeng Zhao, has $150 billion.

It’s grotesque. Billionaires shouldn’t exist. Nor should one hundred millionaires or even ten millionaires. Yet Elon Musk just became the world’s first trillionaire.

As part of his bid to create a Canadian trillionaire, Carney will be hosting a summit of some of the world’s top 100 capitalists and investment firms. The first-ever Canada Investment Summit will take place in Toronto in mid-September. Prime Minister Goldman Sachs is pitching the get together as a way to stimulate a trillion dollars in investment, but it’s as much a about stimulating extraction of ecologically damaging resources and selling off assets at discount rates.

The summit is an opportunity for social movements and activists to come together against Mark Carney’s corporate agenda. The Capitalism Can’t be Fixed campaign is calling for a Carnival Against Capitalism in opposition to Mark Carney’s wealth concentrating, ecocidal policies.

THEY WILL TRY TO IGNORE THIS

 When you have people who have been in the very core of the fascist machine speaking out against the lies propagated throughout the nation , the media will ignore the message , but the government will not . You can bet your ass that these veterans are being watched , and for what ? For speaking truth to the lies about "freedom and democracy" . They need to be heard .

Vets challenge 4th of July lies

By Joe Piette, Michael Kramer and John Catalinotto posted on July 8, 2026

Antiwar veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces and active duty personnel burst out in their broadest show of resistance in decades this July 4th weekend, as if provoked into action by the current administration’s orgy of militarism and white supremacy during the 250-year celebrations.

Even before the weekend started, USAF Major Jason Watson, an active-duty service member with more than 20 years of military career behind him, mounted the steps of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., on July 1 holding a sign that read, “Impeach Convict Remove,” referring to the current president. 

On July 4 in Philadelphia, the Veterans Against Fascism coalition organized hundreds of veterans and active-duty personnel who marched at an “Independence from Billionaires” parade. Participants called it the largest protest specifically of veterans they had experienced since those during the war against Vietnam. And one where they heard mounting dissatisfaction from active-duty personnel.

The third important action is scheduled to take place July 7, in New York City. Organizers in Veterans For Peace, Fellowship of Reconciliation and the Center on Conscience and War will hand out leaflets to the thousands of sailors in New York for Fleet Week. They are inviting sailors who want more information on applying for conscientious objector status or breaking enlistment contracts to come to the People’s Forum in midtown Manhattan for presentations, films, discussions and legal advice from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

The questions raised by long-time veteran activists at these protests are how widespread the levels of dissatisfaction are. What will it lead to? When will open resistance arise? The turnout in Philadelphia indicates growing turmoil among the ranks. What can antiwar civilians do to support resisters inside the military?

Workers World correspondents Joe Piette, a veteran of the Vietnam War, and Michael Kramer, who was in the Israeli military before becoming an activist supporting Palestinian liberation, were at the July 4 protest. Both have been active in antiwar veterans’ movements in the U.S.. Piette wrote the following news report:

Philly: Veterans and active-duty personnel march against war

Chanting “No more rich man’s wars,” hundreds of veterans and active-duty personnel marched at an “Independence from Billionaires” parade in Philadelphia on the 4th of July.

Coming from as far away as California, Maine and Florida, the veterans and active-duty personnel contingent made up the majority of the large “Peoples Parade” during a mile-long march that was led by an “Independence from Billionaires” blue and red banner.

Critical of mass deportation, forced displacement, climate crisis and international wars, local and national groups organized the event as counter-programming to the official 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

The Veterans Against Fascism contingent featured dozens of black and white signs and banners targeting U.S. forever wars. The signs attacked Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) kidnappings and fascism as the military veterans and family members took the streets despite temperatures over 100 degrees.

Current military members who oppose U.S. support for genocide in Palestine walked side-by-side with veterans of U.S. wars against Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam.

A short rally took place near Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was signed 250 years ago. Representatives from Vets for Peace, About Face, Military Families Speak Out and the Fayetteville Resistance Coalition raised the necessity of military personnel active and no-longer-active to speak out against unjust wars and attacks against democratic rights. Speakers emphasized the right of active-duty military members to refuse illegal or immoral orders.

Workers World asked Piette and Kramer for their personal reaction

Piette: First of all, the vibe reminded me of Dewey Canyon III, the veterans’ week-long protest on the Mall in Washington in April 1971. Not as massive or confrontational, but participants just seeing each other together at this event seemed to give everyone more confidence — it seemed like there was a lot of potential for future actions.

I talked with an active-duty National Guard member who wore a Philadelphia Eagles hat. He was standing with about a dozen other active-duty service members among the banners. He said people don’t say anything while in uniform but are talking off duty. 

He raised that the genocide in Gaza changed him. He no longer wants to be in a military that supports genocide, and he is taking steps to separate. He was glad to be among other military members who share his ideas. 

A Marine who quit the service after 13 years was wearing a keffiyeh. She said she flew in from California just to join this march. She was tired of being the enemy wherever she was sent. It was a slow learning process, one thing on top of another, and eventually it made no sense for her to stay in the military. 

Whether marching or rallying, veterans (and active duty personnel) got their messages across clearly. Philadelphia, July 4, 2026. (WWPhoto: Joe Piette)

While taking photos, I had quick conversations with the people holding up the white on black banners. One veteran told me that he felt the population of every country he was sent to by the Army — Iraq and Afghanistan — hated him. He felt he was on the wrong side. I told him that since Vietnam, I assume the U.S. is always on the wrong side. He agreed.

And that was a general response I got from talking to a few other vets. The forever wars have tired them out, and they no longer believe the lies they were told about why they are sent to these places.

Kramer: A couple of things impressed me about the march and rally. One was that it was younger than most of the veterans activities I’ve gone to lately. Those had participation mainly from Vietnam veterans, fewer from veterans from wars in the Gulf region or Afghanistan who are 25 to 35 years younger. There was also a greater proportion of men in the Vietnam era.

Many of the organizers of the Philadelphia march were women. The modern U.S. military itself is about 20% women and has been over 15% since 2010. This was reflected in the makeup of the marchers. And the march was notable for its discipline, Kramer reported. 

Local media ignored it

Although the VAF contingent was a big part of the protest, Philly corporate media gave it no publicity, at least in the next two days. Perhaps this indicates that there is hesitation in the establishment about encouraging such an essential area of resistance. For people in the antiwar movement, it was a jolt in a positive direction.

HOW DIFFERENT ARE THEY , REALLY ?

 The kkkanadian media and government go to great lengths to promote the (false) idea that kkkanada and the u.s. operate differently when it comes to international politics. Wrong . They are just competing, and often collaborating , imperialisms . Profit and self-interest against the needs of the people. Fuck 'em both .

Liberals side with Trump on Cuba, Iran, militarism

Mark Carney’s militarist imperialism is cascading out of control. From Cuba to Iran, Ukraine to submarines, the Liberals are pursuing belligerent, anti-democratic policy.

Tuesday Carney’s government succumbed to Trump administration pressure and abstained on a UN General Assembly resolution condemning the horrific US siege of Cuba. Even the UK, Spain and France voted with most UN member states for a debate on “the necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba.”

Dovetailing with Trump’s bid to squeeze the island, Ottawa introduced a travel advisory five months ago that led to flights being cancelled and dissuaded travel to the tourist-dependent economy. Ottawa has also refused to defend Canadian corporate interests in Cuba ensnared by the ‘Donroe Doctrine’. Worse still, Ottawa has sanctioned vessels defying Trump’s patently illegal oil embargo and Canadian officials are almost certainly assisting the US in spying on Cuba.

In another moral outrage, Carney backed a new round of US attacks on Iran Wednesday. “Iran had been acting irresponsibly, attacking Saudi and Qatari targets particularly,” Carney said at the NATO summit in Turkey. “There has been a response, as appropriate. Obviously, we look to de- escalation of hostilities.”

Carney’s comment follows some 80 US strikes across multiple cities in Iran yesterday. They also as the US president made another odious anti-Iranian statement. Trump declared, “I don’t want to deal with them anymore, they’re scum. They’re sick people. And they’re led by sick people.”

In a sign of how the Carney government has reversed the aggressor/aggressed equation, Tuesday defence minister David McGuinty justified Canada spending huge sums on arms on the grounds Iran struck a target “five thousand kilometres” from its territory (Iranian officials denied responsibility for an alleged March 20 strike towards the US-UK based in Diego Garcia). According to McGuinty we need to pour ever more social resources into submarines and other arms on the grounds the “threat assessment” from Iran (and others) has changed due to Israeli/US war.

Using a purported Iranian reaction to US/Israeli aggression to justify increased military spending is disgraceful. But so is the notion that NATO plowing hundreds of billions of dollars more into to its already massive war spending is somehow “defensive”.

In their latest militarist outrage, Carney announced the purchase of up to a dozen German attack submarines on Monday. Spending $100 billion (over their lifecycle) on stealth warships is part of the government’s effort to ramp up military spending to reach NATO’s shocking 5% of GDP target.

Another part of Carney’s NATO policy is dumping ever more dollars into the most expensive proxy war in Canadian history. Tuesday Ottawa announced another $900 million in arms to assist Ukraine, which will prolong the horrific conflict. Ottawa has spent more on four years of the NATO proxy war in Ukraine than during 13 years of Canadian occupation of Afghanistan.

Mark Carney’s militarism and imperialism must be stopped.

IF THIS ISN'T FASCISM , THEN WHAT THE FUCK IS IT ?

The removal of one nation so another can move in , the protection of bloodthirsty motherfuckers by the fascist state's military , continuous hateful propaganda , what else is this but a fascist movement?

Israeli forces and settlers intensified coordinated attacks across the occupied West Bank, injuring Palestinians, carrying out arrests and threatening further demolitions.

Key Developments

• At least 10 Palestinians injured in settler and military attacks across the West Bank.
• Israeli forces raid homes in Yatta, threatening residents with arrests and demolitions.
• Arrests reported in Jerusalem and Jenin during overnight military raids.
• New settlement outpost established near Jenin as settlers seize land near Nablus.

Israeli occupation forces and settlers intensified coordinated attacks across the occupied West Bank on Friday and Saturday, injuring Palestinians, raiding homes, carrying out arrests and expanding settlement activity in several governorates.

According to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, at least ten Palestinians were injured during separate attacks carried out by Israeli settlers and occupation forces.

In the town of Beit Furik, east of Nablus, two Palestinians were injured after settlers stormed privately owned Palestinian land and assaulted residents.

Witnesses said the Israeli army deployed reinforcements to the area as settlers gathered near the Abu Raafat Al-Hajj Hussein Mosque.

In another incident northwest of Nablus, settlers seized land in Beit Imrin, taking over the Al-Qemma restaurant and café along with a house under construction before raising Israeli flags over the site.

Further south, in Masafer Yatta, eight Palestinians were injured after settlers, backed by Israeli forces, attacked residents in the Asfi al-Fawqa area, according to the Red Crescent.

Settlers also entered the archaeological site of Khirbet Rabud near Dura, south of Hebron (Al Khalil), while a new settlement outpost was reportedly established on Palestinian land belonging to the town of Arraba, southwest of Jenin.

Homes Raided, Residents Threatened

Israeli forces continued overnight military operations across the southern West Bank, raiding several homes in Yatta, south of Hebron.

Anti-settlement activist Osama Makhamra told WAFA that soldiers searched homes in the Al-Mazra’a area, causing extensive property damage.

Among the homes raided was that of the Al-Jabour family, whose members were reportedly threatened with arrest and warned that their homes in the Huwara area of Masafer Yatta could be demolished if they resisted repeated settler attacks.

The Al-Jabour family has endured repeated assaults by Israeli settlers, often accompanied by occupation soldiers, who have attacked residents and damaged agricultural land in the area.

Arrest Campaign Expands

Meanwhile, Israeli forces launched additional raids across occupied East Jerusalem and the northern West Bank.

According to Al Mayadeen, two Palestinian youths were detained during a raid on Qalandiya refugee camp, north of Jerusalem.

In the village of Fahma, southwest of Jenin, Israeli forces arrested a Palestinian man identified as the father of three Palestinian prisoners after raiding his home.

Israeli occupation troops also entered the town of Al-Doha, west of Bethlehem, deploying throughout several neighborhoods.

The latest operations form part of Israel’s nearly daily military raids across the occupied West Bank, which are frequently accompanied by arrests, searches and the destruction of civilian property.

According to official Palestinian figures, intensified Israeli military operations and settler violence since October 2023 have killed at least 1,175 Palestinians, injured 12,919, displaced 33,000, and resulted in the arrest of nearly 24,000 Palestinians throughout the occupied West Bank.
