Syria's Druze visit Israel for first time in 52 years
A Syrian Druze delegation arrived in Israel for a rare two-day visit, the first in over 50 years. The visit was in coordination with Sheikh Mowafaq Tarif, spiritual leader of Israel’s Druze community. The group visited sacred sites like the tomb of Prophet Jethro and Peki’in village in the occupied Golan Heights and northern Israel. The trip, only the second since 1948, follows Israel’s recent military escalation in Syria in the wake of the Assad regime’s fall. Israel's military invasion of Syria and air strikes have sparked protests among Syrian Druze rejecting Israeli intervention.

The wife of detained Palestinian Columbia student says she was naive to believe he was safe from arrest
The wife of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist and former Columbia University graduate student who was forcibly taken by ICE from his New York City home on 8 March, described his arrest as ‘a kidnapping’, which has left her and their family devastated.

The Time Beneath the Concrete: Palestine Between Camp and Colony
Finalised during the Israeli genocide in Gaza, which Israel started on 7 October, 2023, Nasser Abourahme’s study, The Time Beneath the Concrete: Palestine Between Camp and Colony (Duke University Press, 2025), brings the Palestinian refugee camp and its many layers of context and significance to the helm. “The only way to really understand how we came to be faced with a frenzied genocidal campaign in Gaza at the end of 2023 is to think about the historical and temporal contradictions of Zionism as a settler colonial project faced with renewed forms of struggle and refusal,” Abourahme writes in the preface.
