Approximately 1.9 million Palestinians, about 90% of Gaza’s population, were displaced at least once since October 2023, often after losing family members and most of their belongings. It is estimated that by the end of the first year of the assault, Gaza’s residents had been displaced an average of six times.
Gazans claim the Israeli-controlled area, marked by the so-called Yellow Line, changes without warning, moving west. ‘We are not fighters,’ says one mother sheltering in central Gaza, who worries her children will get caught in the line of fire, ‘we are people trying to live’

On 9 December 2025, after two years of Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza, and with an independent UN Commission of Inquiry confirming that the State of Israel is ‘committing
genocide‘, Al-Haq, Lawyers for Justice in the Middle East (AJPO), the French Jewish Union for Peace (UJFP), Survie, and NIDAL, supported in their legal strategy by Droit et Mouvements Sociaux (DMS), have filed a new civil lawsuit against the organisers of the Paris Air Show (SIAE).
Over the past two years, the Israeli Knesset has passed dozens of new laws, the cumulative effect of which is to further entrench and deepen Israel’s regime of apartheid and repression over all Palestinians under its control – both in Israel and in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). Adalah’s new report, “Post-7 October: A New Wave of Anti-Palestinian Israeli Laws”, reviews key legislation passed between 7 October 2023 and 27 July 2025. The laws span multiple themes, including freedom of expression, protest, and thought; the right to citizenship and family life; equality and social rights; and the rights of detainees and prisoners. These new laws fundamentally violate the human rights of Palestinians.

The AURDIP publishes and endorses the open letter “Gaza – The selective silence of the Academy,” addressed to the Academy of sciences. Signed to date by more than 500 academics and researchers, this letter denounces the stark contrast between the institution’s swift reaction in support of Ukrainian scientists and its silence in the face of the destruction of Gaza’s universities and the international crimes of which Palestinians are victims.
