Hey international law experts, wouldn't the US blocking visas for representatives of UN member states (and/or people invited to attend the UN) breach its obligations like the US/UN HQ agreement and other conventions? @JaninaDill

Journalists in Gaza are now facing starvation. They say there is simply no food.

Back to work after a week off and wanted to belatedly share thoughts on America's Middle East policy after a trip to DC this month. The first of which is that Trump has a skeleton crew: if personnel is policy, there's almost no policy because there are almost no personnel. 🧵

IDF soldiers raid a home of a freed Hamas member in Jerusalem. They beat up my colleagues @aboxerman1 and @natan_oden who were there doing their jobs and pointed an armed rifle at them . Outrageous. nytimes.com/2025/01/26/wor…

NEW — Syrians are finally enjoying the sweet taste of freedom at famous Damascus ice cream parlor Bakdash Rebels and refugees were unable to savor the stretchy, mastic-infused Arabic gelato for years due to war. They say it now tastes better than ever. 🧵

I am in Damascus. HTS have called a general curfew. The streets are abandoned except for piles and piles of discarded Syrian Army Uniforms and destroyed military vehicles.

Can’t overstate how big a deal Assad’s collapse is for Turkey, for now. 1. instead of the threat of another Syrian refugee crisis, Turkey senses prospect of mass returns. 2. any group or government that now comes to power in Damascus will be sympathetic to Turkey.

Surrounded by jubilant Syrians in Reyhanli, Turkey. So many Syrians telling me they are overwhelmed today, crying, feeling immense relief, joy, hope after years of torment and hardship: youtu.be/PzeM1_6wx80?si…

Moammar has been searching for his brother for 39 years, arrested by Syrian soldiers in Lebanon when he was 18. He hadn’t heard anything from him since. Until Thursday, when his brother emerged from Hama prison as an old man, 39 years later. theguardian.com/world/2024/dec…

Man, history has a sense of irony. Hamas initially supported the Syrian revolution, but Yahya Sinwar came along and played a key role in reconciling the group with the Assad regime, only for Sinwar to then trigger a chain of dominoes that led to the Assad regime losing Aleppo
