Drop Site Daily: Sept 30, 2025
from #DropSiteNews

The number of daily meals available in northern #Gaza has dropped from 170,000 to 50,000 in roughly two weeks, the #UN reports. President Donald #Trump welcomes Benjamin #Netanyahu to the White House and unveils his 20-point “peace plan” calling for complete #Palestinian disarmament, foreign control of the Gaza Strip, and a permanent Israeli security presence. The Israeli military stages mass raids in the Jalazone refugee camp in the occupied #WestBank. A government shutdown appears more likely after Trump and Senate #Democrats fail to reach an agreement in a Monday meeting. Colombian President #GustavoPetro suspends #Colombia’s free trade agreement with #Israel.

An American nurse in Gaza City films a hospital’s collapse as Israeli forces surround it

[article contains several videos and photos]

Al-Quds [#hospital] once had capacity for 120 patients. Now, roughly 20 remain, including two babies in intensive care. About 60 doctors, nurses and patients’ families are sheltering there.

Vaughan is from Seattle and volunteered through the Palestinian Australian New Zealand Medical Association since July. She kept a video diary of her time at al-Quds, occasionally posting on social media.

She shared dozens of videos with #TheAssociatedPress, which verified them. Volunteers in #Gaza like her have become a vital source of information, as #Israel has forbidden foreign media.

Final goodbye: #MEE reporters on the pain of being forced out of Gaza City

Facing death or displacement, Palestinian journalists make the agonising decision to leave or stay in the city under Israeli attack

“Sell your furniture,” Youssef advises Palestinian journalist Ahmed Dremly, as he packs his belongings to flee #Gaza City.

“The bed in your room, the wardrobe, the bookcase - sell them all,” he insists.

Dremly, one of MEE’s main contributors in Gaza City throughout the #Israeli genocide, responds bitterly: “Who would buy them?”

Youssef, his friend, replies: “Sell them as firewood.”

“So I should smash the bed my mother used to sleep on - my room, my memories - and sell it all as firewood?” Dremly asks again.

“Better that than having it buried under the rubble,” Youssef says, his voice trailing off...

“Blocchiamo Tutto!” Strikes and Blockades Paralyze Italy in Solidarity with Gaza

Over a hundred thousand people led strikes and protests in 80 cities across Italy on Monday to demand an end to the genocide in #Palestine and an end to international support for #Israel. Workers shut down ports and railways in a significant display of the unity of the working class, students, and masses.

A few weeks ago, dockworkers in Genoa threatened a total shutdown of ports if #Israel interfered with the #GlobalSumudFlotilla, the humanitarian aid mission of dozens of boats heading to #Gaza to try and break Israel’s siege and blockade. Student organizations in #Spain and #Italy joined the call to action, threatening to shut down their schools.

Largest Caucus in US House Endorses Bill to Block US Bombs to Israel

“The United States cannot continue to send bombs we know will be used to commit terrible atrocities in Gaza.”

from #CommonDreams
Jon Queally
Sep 21, 2025

The #CongressionalProgressiveCaucus over the weekend officially endorsed a bill that would block the sale of many offensive #US weapons to #Israel. This move coincides with growing outrage from US voters from across the political spectrum who say they have seen enough of American complicity with the genocidal humanitarian blockade and bombardment of the #Gaza Strip.

Today we’re publishing an excerpt from Theodore Hamm's new book Run Zohran Run!

It’s now available for pre-order via OR Books — which also published Refaat Alareer’s collection “If I Must Die” — and it’s an inside account of #Mamdani's stunning upset victory over Andrew Cuomo in the June #Democratic primary for #NYC mayor. (Hamm covered the primary for Drop Site.)

Six weeks before the June 24 primary in the #NewYorkCity mayoral race, #AndrewCuomo led Mamdani by over 20 points in the polls.

The following excerpt is a look at how the genocide in #Gaza became the turning point in the New York City race. Read it below.
