Chris Hedges: The Persecution of Francesca Albanese

Francesca AlbaneseWhen the history of the genocide in Gaza is written, one of the most courageous and outspoken champions for justice and the adherence to international law will be Francesca Albanese, the United Nations Special Rapporteur, who today the Trump administration is sanctioning. Her office is tasked with monitoring and reporting on human rights violations that Israel commits against Palestinians.

Albanese, who regularly receives death threats and endures well-orchestrated smear campaigns directed by Israel and its allies, valiantly seeks to hold those who support and sustain the genocide accountable. She lambasts what she calls “the moral and political corruption of the world” that allows the genocide to continue. Her office has issued detailed reports documenting war crimes in Gaza and the West Bank, one of which, called “Genocide as colonial erasure,” I have reprinted as an appendix in my latest book, “A Genocide Foretold."

Latest news on West Bank, Palestine

west bank demolitionRecent events in the West Bank include the displacement of hundreds of Palestinian families from the Tulkarem refugee camp, attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians and property, and Israeli military raids and arrests.

Israeli forces have also seized land northeast of Ramallah. A new directive allowing accelerated demolitions has raised concerns about displacement and potential annexation. The UN has recorded hundreds of settler attacks in the first half of 2025, impacting Palestinian communities and causing casualties and damage. June saw the highest number of Palestinians injured by settlers in two decades.

The humanitarian situation is marked by increased volatility and protection risks, exacerbated by settler violence and movement restrictions. Over 2,300 Palestinians have been displaced since October 2023 due to settler violence and limited access. Demolitions in areas like Area C and East Jerusalem contribute to displacement and affect access to services. Obstacles to movement, such as checkpoints, hinder access to essential locations.

Immigrants with no criminal convictions represent sharpest growth in ICE detention population

Krome Detention CenterPresident Trump is enacting a mass deportation campaign promised to be the largest in U.S. history. New data is giving a clearer picture of exactly what that looks like: at least 56,000 immigrants are being held in ICE detention.

According to the Deportation Data Project, a group that collects immigration numbers, about half the people in detention don't have criminal convictions. That's close to 30,000 people in detention, without a criminal record — the group that has grown the most in recent months.

"You listen to Tom Homan and Stephen Miller, they're saying things like they are going after the worst of the worst, the people who are murderers," says UCLA Professor Graeme Blair, referring to President Trump's 'Border czar' Tom Homan and key White House Aide Stephen Miller. "That's just not what the data says about the people that they are actually arresting."

DHS Dismisses Palestinian Woman's Treatment In ICE Detention As 'Sob Story'

Ward SakeikA Palestinian woman released from Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention on Tuesday says she and others faced mistreatment while detained. Still, the Department of Homeland Security dismissed her account as one of many “sob stories.”

“The entire detention process was not great. I wouldn’t wish this upon anybody. It was very hard, very traumatizing, and very, very difficult, is what I would say,” Ward Sakeik told CNN’s Danny Freeman on Saturday morning.

Sakeik, 22, a stateless person whose family is from Gaza, was born in Saudi Arabia, a country that does not grant birthright citizenship to children of foreign-born parents, according to The Guardian. She entered the U.S. legally under a tourist visa when she was 8 and was allowed to remain, as long as she regularly checked in with ICE.

Gaza aid contractor tells BBC he saw colleagues fire on hungry Palestinians

Food seekersA former security contractor for Gaza's controversial new Israel- and US-backed aid distribution sites has told the BBC that he witnessed colleagues opening fire several times on hungry Palestinians who had posed no threat, including with machine guns.

On one occasion, he said, a guard had opened fire from a watchtower with a machine gun because a group of women, children and elderly people were moving too slowly away from the site.

When asked to respond the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) said the allegations were categorically false.

They referred us to a statement saying that no civilians ever came under fire at the GHF distribution sites.

Israel wants Gaza cleared of Palestinians.  That's the first step. It will happen, and the world will remain silent. Silence is complicity... and that is evil.

Abrego Garcia says he was severely beaten in Salvadoran prison

Garcia beatenKilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported mistakenly from the U.S. to El Salvador in March, says he was brutally beaten and subjected to psychological torture while held in one of the Central American country's most notorious prisons.

A document filed Wednesday in federal district court in Maryland says Garcia was "subjected to severe mistreatment" when he arrived at CECOT, a mega-prison located in Tecoluca, El Salvador. The court document says Abrego Garcia's treatment included "severe beatings, severe sleep deprivation, inadequate nutrition, and psychological torture."

Abrego Garcia's lawyers shared the details about his treatment in CECOT in order to argue to a judge that he should not be deported to El Salvador, or any other country that could end up sending him there, "without prior notice and opportunity to be heard."

Boy with leukemia held in detention, threatened with deportation

 

ICE agentA 6-year-old Honduran boy with leukemia has been in immigration detention with his mother and 9-year-old sister since May when federal agents arrested them as they left an immigration hearing.
The Honduran family entered the country legally last fall seeking asylum. Lawyers fear their deportation is imminent and are suing for their release, worried about the boy's health.
Leukemia in children requires consistent treatment over a period of years to provide a good shot at long-term survival. That care would be dXXisrupted, the family's lawyer says, if the family is sent back to Honduras.
“This is a family that did everything right,” Elora Mukherjee, a lawXXyer for the family and director of Columbia Law School’s Immigrants’ Rights Clinic, said. The family, who isn’t identified in court records due to threats they face in Honduras, hasn’t been accused of crimes anywhere, she said. “To subject this family — with a 6-year-old who has a leukemia diagnosis — to arrest and detention is illegal,
