Approximately 45 members of the UK Parliament and House of Lords signed a letter urging Britain to issue a formal apology for the 1917 Balfour Declaration.

The letter condemned the historical violations committed by Britain during its mandate in Palestine from 1917 to 1948.

Among the signatories were Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran, Labour MP Nadia Whittome, and Green Party MP Carla Denyer. This move follows a petition submitted to the British government in September of last year by Palestinian businessman Muneeb Al-Masri, calling for both an apology and reparations for Britain’s historical role in dispossessing Palestinians of their land.

Breaking | Palestinian journalist Khaled Shaat documents his makeshift tent in Gaza being inundated by heavy rainfall.

This comes as Israel continues to ban the entry of basic shelter materials, including caravans and durable tents, and has destroyed vital infrastructure during the past two years of genocide.

The UN and humanitarian organizations have warned that without adequate shelter supplies, families are left exposed to extreme weather, deepening the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

“We can blame the Israelis for committing genocide in Gaza all we want. But the fact of the matter is, we committed genocide in Gaza.”

With these words, Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, an American trauma surgeon who volunteered twice in Gaza over the past two years, addressed the California Democratic Convention’s Progressive Caucus, saying the United States is enabling and fueling Israel’s genocide on the besieged enclave.

Sidhwa said he witnessed mass civilian killings, the destruction of hospitals, starvation, and severe injuries among children during his medical missions. He noted that US healthcare workers repeatedly warned American officials through open letters, but received no response.

Citing available research, he said the death toll in Gaza could reach around 215,000 people, including tens of thousands of children.

Yesterday, “The Nation” dedicated its entire website to ‘A Day for Gaza,’ amplifying voices of writers living under siege in the Strip.

According to The Nation, U.S. media coverage has largely ignored Gaza, leaving the world uninformed. The initiative aims to center Gazans themselves, document the human impact of ongoing violence, and challenge other outlets to cover the story.

Contributors shared firsthand accounts of families surviving amid destruction, hunger, and displacement, giving the world an unfiltered view of Gaza’s reality.
