Activists say Israeli navy has begun intercepting a Gaza-bound aid flotilla
Greg Stoker, an American veteran aboard one of the boats in the flotilla, said around a dozen naval vessels with their transponders off had approached it. “They are currently hailing our vessels, telling us to turn off our engines and await further instructions or our boats will be seized and we will face the consequences,” he said in a shaky video while wearing a red life jacket.

Dockworkers in Genoa and Livorno block Israeli arms shipment, as mass protests denounce genocide in Gaza
More than 25,000 people, according to police estimates, and many more, according to organizers, flooded the streets of Genoa on Saturday evening in support of the Global Sumud Flotilla, demanding the opening of humanitarian corridors into Gaza, an end to arms shipments to Israel and an immediate halt to the genocide. The march, which began outside the headquarters of Music for Peace, the NGO coordinating the flotilla’s mission, quickly took on an explosive character.

Over the summer, Together for the Republic, the largest parliamentary group supporting Macron, reversed its previous stance on the far right’s exclusion, arguing that the firewall had led to the disproportionate representation of left-wing groups. Yaël Braun-Pivet, the Macron-allied president of the National Assembly, endorsed the far right’s return in a clip posted on social media.

Australian government extends use of Nauru as a refugee prison
MTC Australia, a subsidiary of one of America’s largest private prison operators, the Management and Training Corporation, has provided “garrison, transferee arrivals and reception services” on the island since 2022, when it was initially contracted for two months for $47 million. The latest contract extension to 2027 takes MTC’s total remuneration to at least $787 million, a figure that will rise, under the terms of the deal, if more refugees are forcibly transported to Nauru.

Groups condemn court for junking environmental defenders' petition for writs of amparo and habeas data
The Environmental Defenders Congress (EDC) expressed deep concern and anger over the Court of Appeals’ rejection of the petition filed by Francisco “Eco” Dangla and Joxelle Tiong, environment defenders who were abducted and tortured in 2024, for a permanent writ of amparo and habeas data.

Colombia’s National Popular Summit charts urban reform agenda and mobilizations for October
One of the main points approved in the declaration was the defense of a Comprehensive and Popular Urban Reform, with access to land, basic public services, and the recovery of territories. For Juliana Ramírez, one of the spokespeople for the Summit, this is the heart of the agenda defined by the movements. “The conclusion is that there must be comprehensive urban reform that guarantees land to live on, universal access to public services, and the broad recovery of urban territories. Without this, our cities will continue to reproduce exclusion and inequality,” she explains.

Harvard study exposes deadly toll of private equity hospitals
Research led by Dr. Zirui Song of Harvard Medical School published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, September 2025, has delivered one of the clearest warnings yet about the dangers of private equity in American hospitals. The study demonstrates in no uncertain terms that when hospitals fall under the control of private equity firms, the pursuit of profit takes precedence over patient care, leading to deadly consequences in the most critical areas of medicine—the emergency departments and intensive care units of US hospitals.

White House puts on hold $18 billion in funding for New York City rail tunnel and subway projects
President Donald Trump's administration said Wednesday it was putting a hold on roughly $18 billion to fund a new rail tunnel beneath the Hudson River between New York City and New Jersey and an extension of the city's Second Avenue subway because of the government shutdown. The White House budget director, Russ Vought, said on a post on X that the step was taken due to the Republican administration's belief the money was based on unconstitutional diversity, equity and inclusion principles.

US FCC to consider ending merger ban among US broadcast networks
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission voted on Tuesday to consider whether to lift the long-standing prohibition on a merger between any of the largest four broadcast networks and to consider relaxing other media ownership rules.

Inside Amazon’s Aggressive Push To Get Cops Using AI Surveillance
San Diego County took a demo but passed. Similarly, after testing out the live streaming software powering Amazon’s Twitch gaming platform to stream its real-time drone footage, the agency went with a different provider, Nomad Media. But the world’s biggest everything store will still collect a check on that deal. Nomad is closely partnered with Amazon Web Services. It runs its software on AWS cloud and its object detection, should San Diego or other customers choose to use it, is powered by Rekognition, Amazon’s AI image and video analysis service. Nomad CEO Adam Miller told Forbes his company often goes to market with Amazon. “We use a tremendous number of their AWS services,” Miller said.

PFLP Declares, “We Will Remain Loyal to the Blood of the Martyrs and Committed to the Resistance”
On the first anniversary of the martyrdom of its Political Bureau member Nidal Abd al-Aal and his comrades Imad and Abd al-Rahman, the PFLP declares: “We will remain loyal to the blood of the martyrs and committed to the resistance until liberation and return. There is no fear for the resistance, and Gaza will remain the day after… The will of the people is steadfast against all attempts at liquidation.” The leaders were assassinated on September 30th, 2024 in Beirut. “Their blood has become a testament to the great truth: that martyrdom is a deeper presence in the collective conscience of our people and our nation, and that the martyr has become an idea that never fades, a legacy that flows through the veins of the resistance, becoming a seed that sprouts a thousand fighters, and a resounding voice that awakens an entire nation.”

Here to fight, here to stay: Imperial Typewriters strike
Three years ago in September 2022, Leicester made national headlines for communal clashes between Asians, initiated by a 200 strong march of Hindutva inspired fascists. The march and clashes took place in the shadow of the Imperial Typewriter building, which still stands today on East Park Road. The cruel irony of the act was that 50 years ago, this very area was the epicentre of one of the largest anti-racist strikes to rock Britain, led by Asians together.

Trump’s 20-Point Gaza Plan: A Rubber Stamp of Legitimacy on Israel’s Subjugation of Palestine
Three weeks after Israel attempted to assassinate Hamas’s lead negotiators in a series of airstrikes on the group’s offices in Doha, Qatar, President Donald Trump hailed the public announcement of his 20-point plan to end the war in Gaza as “potentially one of the great days ever in civilization.” The framework was drafted in coordination with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s top adviser, Ron Dermer, and spearheaded by Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner. Several Arab and Muslim states also contributed. No Palestinian officials from Hamas or any other faction, including the internationally-recognized Palestinian Authority, were consulted in crafting the plan. The proposal, which Netanyahu agreed to after meeting with Trump at the White House on Monday, links the delivery of food and other life essentials and the withdrawal of Israeli forces to the demilitarization of Gaza and includes several loopholes that would permit Israel to resume the genocide. It also would impose a foreign-led authority on the demilitarized Gaza Strip, backed by Arab and international troops, and allow the Israeli army to indefinitely encircle the enclave by maintaining positions inside Gaza’s territory. The plan requires Hamas to release all Israeli captives held in Gaza before any Palestinians would be freed. While the proposal includes a series of apparent concessions to Arab and Muslim countries in return for their endorsement, it makes no mention of how Israel would be prevented from violating the agreement. The plan also includes a nebulous mention of possible future Palestinian “self-determination and statehood” after Gaza “re-development advances” and the Palestinian Authority is reformed.
