French justice to challenge Israeli 'impunity' over alleged Gaza civilian executions


Several NGOs, including the International Federation for Human Rights, have filed a legal complaint in Paris against two French-Israeli soldiers accused of carrying out summary executions of civilians in the Gaza Strip. The plaintiffs say the case could mark a turning point in judicial responses to the war in the enclave, challenging what they describe as the 'systemic impunity' of Israeli snipers.

The legal complaint, filed with civil party status, concerns two soldiers identified as Sasha A and Gabriel B – members of an elite sniper unit of the Israeli army, known as the “Ghost Unit” or Refaim in Hebrew.

The plaintiffs accuse them of carrying out deliberate killings in Gaza – crimes that could be considered war crimes, crimes against humanity and acts of genocide under international law.

The complaint was submitted by the International Federation for Human Rights (FIDH) and its member organisations – Al-Haq, Al Mezan, the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PHCR), the LDH and the Association France Palestine Solidarité (AFPS) – on 1 July to a specialised unit of the Paris Judicial Court.

This unit has jurisdiction over crimes against humanity, war crimes, torture and enforced disappearances – particularly those cases involving French victims or suspects, or foreign suspects present or habitually resident in France.

The Ghost Unit, comprised of a few dozen snipers assigned to carry out “targeted neutralisations”, is primarily made up of dual nationals – including Israeli-American, Israeli-Belgian and Israeli-Ethiopian soldiers.

Approximately 4,000 French nationals are currently believed to be serving in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) – which FIDH refers to as the Israeli Occupying Forces.

Dual nationality exposes them to prosecution under French law. The complaint accuses the two soldiers of “deliberate attacks on life”, constituting crimes under international law.

"There is no ‘Israel exception’. Justice must move forward,” said Alexis Deswaef, a lawyer and vice-president of the FIDH. “Impunity fuels future crimes. We absolutely need a conviction for war crimes, crimes against humanity, or even genocide – a first conviction so that others can follow."

"It would mark a turning point…and would probably change things on the ground," he said, although he acknowledged too that justice alone "won’t be enough to stop the ongoing genocide in Gaza," and said there must be a ceasefire.

The legal complaint is based on investigative work by independent Palestinian journalist Younis Tirawi, who conducted an investigation into the Ghost Unit.

His 38-minute documentary, published on X (formerly Twitter) in October 2024, shows footage of sniper attacks on civilians, including children and paramedics. One fatal shot came from more than a kilometre away.

The alleged acts took place between November 2023 and March 2024, near the al-Nasser and al-Quds hospitals in Khan Younis – both of which have been the target of intense Israeli bombardments following the 7 October Hamas attacks.

The documentary features an interview with the unit’s Israeli-American staff sergeant Daniel Raab. Speaking directly to camera, he explains how they shoot unarmed Gazan civilians near the two hospitals.

“If they are in an area designated as a combat zone, and they are men of military age, then we shoot," Raab said on camera. "The question of women and children is debated with command... As a sniper, you have a lot of independence, a lot of responsibility, and a lot of room for judgement... In some cases, they say yes or no, and in others, they say yes when you think it should be no... and then it’s up to you. You shoot.”

Raab states that his unit killed at least 120 Palestinians in under five months.

The NGOs say they have additional evidence supporting Tirawi’s findings.

“We were able to gather testimonies from direct victims of snipers in the time and place documented by Younis Tirawi – precise statements from victims, snipers or relatives of people killed by snipers at the entrance to the two hospitals,” said Deswaef.

“The testimonies complete the evidence collected by the journalist. That’s what makes this case so exceptional.”

“The convergence of eyewitness accounts and the documentation provided by Tirawi clearly indicates the involvement of the same snipers in a coordinated campaign of extra-judicial executions in various locations across Gaza,” the FIDH said in a statement.

Deliberately targeting civilians with lethal intent constitutes a serious violation of international law, including prohibited acts under the Genocide Convention, it added.

As a signatory to the 1949 Geneva Conventions and their 1977 Additional Protocols, as well as to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, France has a legal obligation to investigate and, if warranted, prosecute its nationals accused of international crimes.

According to the complaint: “In the areas where the unit operates, the apparent strategy is to open fire on any person of military age, even in the absence of any clear threat. Each shot fired by the snipers is intended not to wound, but to kill.”

The complaint argues that “these acts may constitute not only war crimes, but also genocide and other crimes against humanity”.

This is not the first case of its kind. In late 2024, the FIDH filed a complaint against another Franco-Israeli soldier, Yoel O, for alleged torture of Palestinian prisoners. The case was dismissed.

A previous complaint concerning the same individual had also been dropped earlier in the year by the National Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor’s Office (Pnat).

More recently, Pnat opened two judicial inquiries into French-Israeli nationals accused of participating in the obstruction of humanitarian aid. On 4 July, the organisation Lawyers for justice in the Middle East (AJPO) filed a complaint against French-Israelis living in illegal settlements, along with French entities allegedly complicit in recruiting individuals in France to move to West Bank settlements.

Additional complaints targeting other members of the Ghost Unit are expected to be lodged in Italy and other European jurisdictions. Investigations are already under way in South Africa and Belgium.

But Deswaef insists their case is exceptional. "What makes this case so particular is that we already have the evidence at the time the complaint is filed – significant and even sufficient evidence to allow for prosecution and conviction.

“These are damning elements. We have enough to try them as perpetrators of crimes, or at the very least as co-perpetrators or accomplices as members of the Ghost Unit operating collectively in Gaza."

He said having the staff sergeant openly explaining they were shooting unarmed civilians who pose no threat from 1.2 kilometres away, with the clear intent to kill, was "the very definition of a war crime".

France has been outspoken and active in its efforts to secure the release of French-Israeli hostages kidnapped by Hamas on 7 October, 2023. Deswaef hopes it will show the same determination in holding its citizens accountable for any crimes committed in Gaza.

“We must hope so because otherwise it would be just another example of the completely unacceptable double standard – an insult to human intelligence and an insult to the European values that our leaders so often invoke to criticise others.

"Unless we’re to say that France makes an exception for Israel? This double standard is unbearable, and it undermines credibility. I don’t think our European leaders realise how much our international credibility has evaporated because of our inaction over Israel’s crimes committed in total impunity and without provoking the slightest reaction."

While France has one of the most advanced frameworks in matters of universal jurisdiction, lawyer Johann Soufi questions the political will to prosecute French citizens for crimes committed abroad.

"At present, France appears reluctant – both in its statements and in its actions," he said. "I detect no sincere willingness on the part of political leaders to shed light on the possible involvement of our compatriots in what the International Criminal Court – and many legal experts – now define as war crimes, crimes against humanity or even genocide."

Since the Hamas attacks on Israel, international justice has moved faster than diplomacy.

The ICC, which considers Israel's actions in Gaza war crimes and crimes against humanity, has issued arrest warrants. The International Court of Justice has acknowledged a plausible risk of genocide and ordered several provisional measures. United Nations bodies have documented what they describe as a criminal – even genocidal – policy, including the deliberate starvation of civilians.

“We cannot turn a blind eye to the possible responsibility of our compatriots in these crimes, whether military or civilian,” said Soufi. “International courts have done their part – they’ve stated the law, legally qualified the facts and established responsibility on the basis of the evidence presented to them.

"But justice depends – and will always depend – on the political will of states to be effective. Today, those who are failing are not the NGOs or lawyers, such as those who brought this complaint. It's the political leaders – particularly in the West – who, through their silence or complicity, through their total lack of moral compass, are burying the values they claim to uphold.

"When the time comes to account for these events, it won’t be up to defenders of international law to justify themselves, but those who refused to act. Unfortunately, we will all pay the price for this betrayal, because international law itself is being allowed to disappear.”

The death toll in Gaza has now surpassed 57,000, with more than 130,000 people injured, according to the Hamas health authority – figures that the UN deems credible.

US State Department begins mass layoffs


Washington (AFP) – More than 1,300 State Department employees were fired Friday in a downsizing ordered by President Donald Trump and touted as cutting bloated government -- but which critics predict will hamstring US influence around the world.

Diplomats and other staff clapped out departing colleagues in emotional scenes at the Washington headquarters of the department, which runs US foreign policy and the global network of embassies.

Some were crying as they walked out with boxes of belongings.

A State Department official said 1,107 members of the civil service and 246 Foreign Service diplomatic employees were terminated.

The layoffs at the department came three days after the Supreme Court cleared the way for the Trump administration to begin carrying out its plan to gut entire government departments.

The conservative-dominated top court lifted a temporary block imposed by a lower court on Trump's plans to lay off potentially tens of thousands of employees.

The 79-year-old Republican says he wants to dismantle what he calls the "deep state." Since taking office in January, he has worked quickly to install fierce personal loyalists and to fire swaths of veteran government workers.

His secretary of state, Marco Rubio, says the foreign policy department is too cumbersome and requires thinning out of some 15 percent.

The American Foreign Service Association (AFSA) -- the union representing State Department employees -- condemned the "catastrophic blow to our national interests."

"At a moment of great global instability -- with war raging in Ukraine, conflict between Israel and Iran, and authoritarian regimes testing the boundaries of international order -- the United States has chosen to gut its frontline diplomatic workforce," AFSA said in a statement.

"We oppose this decision in the strongest terms."

The State Department employed over 80,000 people worldwide last year, according to a fact sheet, with around 17,700 in domestic roles. The US Agency for International Development, long the primary vehicle to provide US humanitarian assistance around the world, has already been mostly dismantled.

According to The Washington Post, State Department employees were informed of their firings by email.

Foreign Service officers will lose their jobs 120 days after receiving the notice and will be immediately placed on administrative leave, while civil service employees will be separated after 60 days, the newspaper said.

Ned Price, who served as State Department spokesman under Democratic former president Joe Biden, condemned what he called haphazard firings.

"For all the talk about 'merit-based,' they're firing officers based on where they happen to be assigned on this arbitrary day," Price said on X. "It's the laziest, most inefficient, and most damaging way to lean the workforce."

Former ambassador Barbara Leaf, Biden's top Middle East diplomat, said the move "will have terrible consequences for our ability to protect American citizens abroad, pursue and defend the national interest and our national security."

"This is not a re-org. This is a purge," Leaf said in a post on LinkedIn.

The AI We Deserve


The article is a great critique of how what the author refers to as the "Efficiency Lobby" has been pursuing a narrow idea of task oriented intelligence focused on productivity. It's a narrow focus, driven by corporate interests, that necessarily leads to individualistic consumption of AI services, hindering genuine creativity, open-ended exploration, and collection.

A recent paper introduces MemOS with the potential to create a truly collaborative and community driven foundation for AI. The paper introduces a new approach to memory management for LLMs, treating memory as a governable system resource.

It uses the concept of MemCubes that encapsulate both semantic content and critical metadata like provenance and versioning. MemCubes are designed to be composed, migrated, and fused over time, unifying three distinct memory types: plaintext, activation, and parameter memories.

This architecture directly addresses the limitations of stateless LLMs, enabling long-context reasoning, continual personalization, and knowledge consistency. The paper proposes a mem-training paradigm, where knowledge evolves continuously through explicit, controllable memory units, blurring the lines between training and deployment paving the way to extend data parallelism to a distributed intelligence ecosystem.

It would be possible to build a decentralized network where there's a common pool of MemCubes acting as shareable and composable containers of memory, akin to a BitTorrent for knowledge. Users could contribute their own memory artifacts such as structured notes, refined prompts, learned patterns, or even "parameter patches" encoding specialized skills that are encapsulated within MemCubes.

Using a common infrastructure would allow anyone to share, remix, and reuse these building blocks in all kinds of ways. Such an architecture would directly address Morozov's critique of privatized "stonefields" of knowledge, instead creating a truly public digital commons.

This distributed platform could effectively amortize computation across the network, similar to projects like SETI@home. Instead of constantly recomputing information, users could build out a local cache of MemCubes relevant to their context from the shared pool. If a particular piece of knowledge or a specific reasoning pattern has already been encoded and optimized within a MemCube by another user, it can simply be reused, dramatically reducing redundant computation and accelerating inference.

The inherent reusability and composability of MemCubes make it possible to have a collaborative environment where all users contribute to and benefit from each other. Efforts like Petals, which already facilitate distributed inference of large models, could be extended to leverage MemOS to share dynamic and composable memory.

This has the potential to transform AI from a tool for isolated consumption to a medium for collective creation. Users would be free to mess about with readily available knowledge blocks, discovering emergent purposes and stumbling on novel solutions.

Compact but Capable: Oiwa Garage’s Custom Honda Acty Projects


In the world of custom vehicles, bigger often gets the spotlight — lifted 4x4s, widebody sports cars, and oversized vans. But at Oiwa Garage, the philosophy is different: less bulk, more brilliance. Their star platform? The beloved Honda Acty mini truck — compact, practical, and bursting with potential.

Oiwa’s builds prove that capability doesn’t require size — just smart design and thoughtful engineering.

🛻 The Honda Acty: A Blank Canvas in Kei Size
Originally designed for tight city streets, farm paths, and back-alley deliveries, the Honda Acty is Japan’s kei truck icon. With its mid- or rear-engine layout, simple drivetrain, and lightweight body, it’s ideal for transformation.

And while it might look modest from the factory, Oiwa Garage sees it as a versatile platform for custom builds — whether you’re going off-road, building a camper, or just want a stylish street utility truck.

🔧 What Makes Oiwa Garage’s Acty Projects Stand Out?
✅ 1. Form Meets Function
Every mod has a purpose — nothing is added just for show. Whether it’s a suspension lift or a cargo cage, Oiwa’s work combines utility and design.

✅ 2. Creative Custom Themes
No two Oiwa Actys are the same. Themes include:

Overland expedition rigs

Retro military-style haulers

Surf-ready beach trucks

Minimalist urban utility builds

✅ 3. Quality-First Craftsmanship
Oiwa doesn’t cut corners. Their team treats every Acty like a full-size project:

Welded steel bumpers and roof racks

Hand-laid paintwork or vinyl livery

Custom-built cabinetry and storage for camper conversions

Interior detailing with modern but subtle upgrades

🔧 Signature Oiwa Mods for Honda Acty Projects

lo zaino cannibale tagliato e poi buttato (pulizie estive?)


Tra le mani ad oggi ho solo spaccamenti, e quindi non ho davvero molto da dire senza sembrare ancora più fuori di testa del solito… Ma, senza finire per divagare già al primo periodo di questo post, ecco una cosa che ho fatto l’altro giorno che boh, è divertente… ma chissà quanto utile. (Sospetto poco, a causa di problemi di skill che subito diventano evidenti, ma la mia vita è per legge questo.) 🙏

Mio padre doveva buttare un trolley della spesa vecchio l’altro giorno, perché consumato e spacc… ordinaria amministrazione, nella corrente economia, in cui i prodotti puntualmente si rovinano se semplicemente vengono usati, vabbè. Ne ha approfittato per prendere e levare di mezzo anche un altro trolley mezzo scassato, che invece usavo io a scuola, alle elementari (tempi duri, a portare a giro tutti i cazzo di libri, e poi i quaderni pure, noo madonna ragazzi che ne parliamo a fare)… e quello principalmente aveva il manico allungabile rotto, incastrato, che non scendeva più completamente; rumenta a tutti gli effetti. 💩

Per giorni, pur avendo notato lo spostamento dell’oggetto, non ci ho pensato molto… Però, giusto un giorno prima che fossero effettivamente gettati (e se qui non devo ringraziare gli spiriti che mi hanno infuso il giusto pensiero nel giusto momento, davvero non so quando dovrei), mi è salita in mente un’idea: e se cannibalizzassi le ruote, che potrebbero fare sempre comode in magici progetti futuri??? (Tipo, esempio stupido, bombe autocomandate???) E sarebbe stata un’idea perfetta, se all’atto pratico non si fosse rivelata impossibile (almeno, impossibile nella misura di volerlo fare così, per sfizio, per perdere un po’ di tempo prima di cena). Purtroppo, lo zainetto era così cucinato dal tempo che le viti esagonali che tenevano a posto le ruote non volevano saperne di svitarsi con un cacciavite (e io non possiedo le chiavi orizzontali magiche), quelle dell’altro carrello erano molto grandi e fissate non so come, e visto ciò avevo esaurito le opzioni. 😿

Eppure… qualcosa comunque me la dovevo rubare e conservare, da quella carcassa così insensibilmente condannata alla discarica… quindi ho optato per le zip!!! (Zorp!!!) Ho preso inizialmente le forbici, perché sono scema… poi ho visto che non sarei andata da nessuna parte in quel modo, quindi ho preso il taglierino. In qualche minuto quindi, e con non poca fatica, le ben due cerniere le ho staccate… evidentemente non con grandissimo successo, ma sono comunque utilizzabili, ci si può cucire filo filo sul bordo (…o, almeno, alla peggio la più grande dovrebbe essere utilizzabile, e che cazzo…)! Non ricordavo neanche se fosse di buona o cattiva qualità questo zaino, però, a giudicare dal come il tessuto è stato fisicamente molto tosto a tagliarsi, direi non male. 🔪
Zaino in piedi, vista sul retro con la cerniera grande staccataZaino per terra con taglierino e cerniera piccola staccataLe due cerniere mezze aperte sulla mia scrivania
Comunque, assurdo… Lo zaino Invicta blu con dettagli neri e verdi, e fa questa fine…? Mai capirò come mai in questa casa viene sempre la voglia di buttare via la robba… Mio padre dice sempre che bisogna buttare un sacco di cose, perché non ci sarebbe spazio in camera mia, ma è da ormai quasi un quarto di secolo che sento sempre dire questa cosa… eppure, tutti i suoi libri dall’aspetto semi-costoso sono ancora lì al loro posto sulle mie mensole. Ok, in parte sto scherzando, perché oggettivamente non c’è spazio… basta guardare come sono costretta a conservare i miei manga per avere un’idea… però non capisco perché mai ripetere questa cosa svariate volte all’anno, e in alcuni periodi pure svariate volte al mese… 🥴

Questo zaino che è stato coattamente eliminato dalla mia stanza e piazzato vicino alla mondezza, però, in effetti forse era da buttare, gli darò vinta questa. Era così pieno di polvere, ma veramente così impregnato di marciume arioso, che mentre facevo queste procedure di cannibalizzazione (avendole fatte tutte a pezzetti, una alla volta, 3 in totale) mi sono dovuta lavare le mani ogni volta, per quanto diventavano di quel classico secco scomodo della polvere… nonostante ad occhio tutto sommato non sembri (perché, appunto, sarà proprio il tessuto impregnato, e non solo coperto), se non per il fatto che ha una specie di alone come se fosse renderizzato con della nebbia attorno. Però uffa, il bilancio ottenuto alla fine fa schifo, ho potuto riciclare poca roba! 🤥

Why Big Tech is threatened by a global push for data sovereignty


Developing nations are challenging Big Tech’s decades-long hold on global data by demanding that their citizens’ information be stored locally. The move is driven by the realization that countries have been giving away their most valuable resource for tech giants to build a trillion-dollar market capitalization.

In April, Nigeria asked Google, Microsoft, and Amazon to set concrete deadlines for opening data centers in the country. Nigeria has been making this demand for about four years, but the companies have so far failed to fulfill their promises. Now, Nigeria has set up a working group with the companies to ensure that data is stored within its shores.

“We told them no more waivers — that we need a road map for when they are coming to Nigeria,” Kashifu Inuwa Abdullahi, director-general of Nigeria’s technology regulator, the National Information Technology Development Agency, told Rest of World.

Other developing countries, including India, South Africa, and Vietnam, have also implemented similar rules demanding that companies store data locally. India’s central bank requires payment companies to host financial data within the country, while Vietnam mandates that foreign telecommunications, e-commerce, and online payments providers establish local offices and keep user data within its shores for at least 24 months.
