As the Russia-Ukraine war enters its next phase, the Kursk nuclear power plant (KNPP) is now close to an area of fierce fighting. It is clear that the only way to remove these risks completely is for a rapid, negotiated end to the war. bit.ly/3XlQWtd

Any state or company supplying parts for F-35s is complicit in a genocidal war. That includes the 79 companies on the UK government's open licence for the F-35. I have directly asked UK govt officials why they haven't revoked that licence. Met with blank stares and silence.

David Lammy, I rewrote your speech more accurately: "we will suspend the export of components for fighter aircraft, except for components for the F35, our main contribution to Israel's genocidal war in Gaza, because we don't want to upset the Americans" gov.uk/government/spe…

Future War: Will it really be clean and green? Military jargon like ‘green warfare’ and ‘precision warfare’ would certainly have us believe so! Dr Stuart Parkinson presented on the issues with defence tech at QUB's ‘Imagining Future War’ conference. bit.ly/4ggKb3f

What's happening in Gaza is totally unacceptable. A school turned shelter for around 12,000 people was hit by Israeli airstrikes again today. Six of our UNRWA colleagues are among those killed. These dramatic violations of international humanitarian law need to stop now.
