Forcible #displacement:

In this episode of 'Christ at the checkpoint' #podcast, Rev. Munther Isaac and HR lawyer Dalia Qumsieh discuss the ongoing violations of Palestinian #humanrights, the current situation in the #westbank, and the impact of the military occupation on Palestinian Christians.

They tackle the pressing issue: why are Palestinian Christians leaving the West Bank?

The Israeli army has issued what the U.N. described as 10 mandatory evacuation orders (…) since it resumed its war against Hamas on March 18, ending a two-month-old ceasefire amid rows over terms for extending it.“

The Washington Post · Live updates: Israeli evacuation orders and attacks on Gaza displace more PalestiniansBy Abbie Cheeseman

Nearly 40,000 Palestine Refugees have been forcibly displaced from the northern WestBank as Israeli military operations escalate at an alarming rate.

Since 21 January, Israeli Forces’ Operation "Iron Wall" has nearly emptied several refugee camps, making it the longest military operation in the West Bank since the second intifada.

Ezzat El Rasha, a member of the #Hamas political bureau, condemned #Trump's remarks on buying & owning #Gaza….

"Gaza is not a property to be sold & bought. It is an integral part of our occupied Palestinian land," & #Palestinians will foil #displacement plans, Rashq added.

Trump has spoken of permanently displacing Palestinians who live in Gaza & would create a "Riviera of the Middle East."

Trump last week floated the idea of the #US taking over Gaza & engaging in a massive rebuilding effort.

Some Puerto Ricans are illegally occupying land and buildings to resist gentrification and displacement.

A lot of these investors are buying these abandoned buildings and doing nothing with them. This displaces a lot of Boricuas.
These buildings could be used for communities to gather. They could be used for housing. Amongst other creative things.

Boricuas are occupying these abandoned buildings and are doing amazing things with them. Power to the people!!!

There was a Sentinel-1 scene capture some hours after the Vanuatu earthquake yesterday, so I went to create an interferogram using ASF's on-demand Vertex service from an image pair (2024-12-05 to 2024-12-17). Estimates range from about 5cm of subsidence to 10cm of uplift.
