Today, rain-triggered flooding and a collapsing embankment killed five people, including three children, near Deir al-Balah. Tens of thousands of tents have reportedly flooded as displaced families face winter without adequate shelter. The urgent ask: press U.S. officials to secure unrestricted entry of shelter materials, fuel and humanitarian supplies, and to begin reconstruction.

Radio Free Asia confirms the death of the youngest detainee of China’s Concentration Camps
Rahile Omer, whose photograph as a frightened teenager became one of the defining faces of the leaked Xinjiang Police Files, has died in Chinese custody at the age of 23. Taken from her home in Konasheher (Shufu) County in 2017 when she was just 14 years old, spending the next 9 years in China’s vast network of political re-education camps, pre-trial detention facilities, and state prisons before dying behind bars in Payzawat County, in Kashgar.
While one officer attributed her sudden death to “heart problems,” authorities offered no explanation regarding when she developed this condition, what medical treatment she received, or how her years of confinement and prison conditions contributed to her death.

ICJ is due to rule on the Rohingya genocide case.
UN’s top court sets 19 November as date for landmark judgment in case brought by Gambia against Myanmar.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ) will rule imminently on whether Myanmar committed genocide against the Rohingya, in a judgment that could see the court hold a state responsible for genocide for the first time. Officials announced on Tuesday that the court’s president, Judge Yuji Iwasawa, would read the judgment at a public sitting at the Peace Palace in The Hague at 10am local time on 19 November. The ruling will be final and binding, with no right of appeal. Several governments have already described the violence as genocide, including the US and Canada.

Widespread protests against the process which creates essentially two classes of citizens contrary to constitution
India’s Special Intensive Revision of voters (SIR) continues in a brutal deletion of names in the state of Karnataka & Maharashtra. This is despite the widespread protests against the process which creates essentially two classes of citizens contrary to India’s constitution. The BJP govt. Is relentless at inventing new ways to disenfranchise Muslims primarily and to solidify their political position by concentrating voter lists with what it views as supporters from the larger Hindu community. The Karnataka & Maharashtra SIR process report by the Sabar Institute is worth reading.
