Social media users have accused several of the panellists that featured on Thursday's episode of BBC Question Time of a pro-Israel bias, following their responses to a question about Israel's war on Gaza.
Social media users underlined that the panellists, which included Labour Cabinet minister Peter Kyle, MP Nigel Huddleston, Alex Depledge, and Sonia Sodha, echoed variations of the view that Israel has a "right to defend itself."

Liebes #Fediverse, ich brauche dich ... mal wieder.
Es ist wie es immer ist, man braucht es nicht bis man es braucht.
Innerfamiliär möchten sich 4 Personen über Video-Call zueinander schalten. Das habe alle bisher via #Skype gemacht aber Skype ist ja bekanntermaßen Game Over und #Teams wollen alle Beteiligten nicht (yeah!).
Also ... so als 0815-User aus dem www, welche "lass mal einen Videocall zu viert machen und bisschen quatschen" Lösung nutzt man? Auch hier ist es wie es immer ist, nach Möglichkeit ohne dafür zu zahlen und, sofern geht, ohne Anmeldung/Preisgabe von Daten (aber schlagt ruhig alles vor, man findet sicher einen Kompromiss)
Ich danke euch schon jetzt für eure Vorschläge..

The image depicts a fantasy character, likely an elf, with pointed ears and braided hair. The character is wearing a brown leather armor with a shoulder guard and a quiver of arrows on their back. They are holding a curved dagger with a silver blade and intricate design, poised as if ready for action. The character's expression is mischievous, with a slight grin and green eyes. The background is a warm sepia tone, enhancing the medieval fantasy theme. The character's attire and weaponry suggest they are a skilled archer or rogue. The image is signed with the artist's website, "JOENBROWNART.COM," in the bottom right corner.

A senior Hamas official told Drop Site that the group received a direct commitment from Donald Trump’s special envoy, Steve Witkoff, that two days after the release of U.S. citizen and Israeli soldier Edan Alexander, the Trump administration would compel Israel to lift the Gaza blockade and allow humanitarian aid to enter the territory.
“It was a deal,” said Basem Naim, a member of Hamas’s political bureau.

#Iceland tested a reduced workweek 2014-2019:
”A pair of trials covering 1.3 per cent of the Icelandic workforce revealed that slashing weekly hours led to better employee #wellbeing, with less stress and burnout, while #productivity stayed the same or improved. The positive results sparked union pressure in Iceland, and now 86% of Icelandic workers either work shorter weeks or have the right to ask to do so.“

A US official told Al-Jazeera that the aircraft carrier Harry S. Truman is leaving the Middle East and that Washington has no plans to replace it.
According to the official, both the United States and the Yemeni Ansarallah movement remain committed to a mutual ceasefire, despite Ansarallah continuing to target Israel. He also emphasized that Israel does not notify the US in advance of all its attacks on Ansarallah targets.

The image shows a map of France with a blue box overlay containing text. The box is labeled "France" at the top. Below this, it states "Statements of support collected online: 590,651," followed by "Threshold: 55,695," and "Percentage: 1060.51%." The map itself is a simplified representation of France, with different regions shaded in various colors, including dark green, light green, and peach. The blue box is positioned over the central part of France, providing a clear contrast against the map's background. The text within the box is white, making it easily readable against the blue background.

The image is a cartoon depicting a scene related to a European Citizens' Initiative. In the foreground, a small, skeletal figure with a large, drooling mouth is labeled "SIGNATURES," with a droplet falling from its mouth. This figure is positioned to the left of the image, with the European Union flag superimposed over it. To the right, a larger, caricatured figure with a prominent nose and a suit is seated, with the French flag superimposed over it. The larger figure is depicted as consuming the signatures, with a pipe labeled "SIGNATURES" extending from the left to the right, symbolizing the flow of signatures into the larger figure's mouth. The background is a plain, light brown color, and the top of the image contains text that reads "EUROPEAN CITIZENS' INITIATIVE - Central online collection system" and "Ban on conversion practices in the European Union." The overall tone of the image is satirical, highlighting the process of collecting signatures for a political initiative.
