With a heavy heart I announce that my 18-year-old younger sister, Lara Sayegh, was killed today on her way from Gaza City to the south. She and my mother were reaching Egypt for safety. My angel collapsed as she was walking on the “safe route” past the Israeli checkpoint, in an…
14 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli raid of Nur Shams refugee camp in the occupied West Bank over the weekend, after Israel "greenlit" an attack on the camp's civilian infrastructure "in order to ensure the pushing out of Palestinians," says journalist @MariamBarghouti.
New reports suggest the Biden administration has approved Israel's plan to attack Rafah in exchange for Israel not launching counterstrikes on Iran. Now, Israel “has the benefit of being able to dangle both threats,” says @MairavZ, senior Israel analyst with @CrisisGroup.
ISB holders reject Sri Lanka’s offer of 30% haircut on capital and 20% haircut on past due interest. Counteroffer from ISB holders: 37% haircut if average GDP drops below $77.6bn between 2025 and 27. Otherwise, no cut. That is an incentive to fail again. treasury.gov.lk/api/file/bdfd5…

Overlooking targeted arrests, disappearances, public fatigue & a deliberate cultivation of fear psychosis to further a particular narrative re protest & sources of discontent. When you ⬆️ repression, expressions of discontent are 'repressed' but does real discontent disappear?
Today's seemingly atrocious turnout (for what the Aragalaya promised to be the biggest protest ever) shows that the 2022 protests were for one thing - sending Gota home. JVP-types and Colombo-socialist pseudo-intelligentsia tried to make it something more than it was. It's not.
V discouraging to watch former colleagues (& even friends) tacitly & sometimes unabashedly support a regime normalizing intimidation, dis-info & state repression; reverting #lka back to the pre-2015 fear psychosis era. Opportunism or failure to see how 👿 can wear a nice suit?👇🏽
Wealthy Sri Lankans cheered on the aragala types who took the brunt of the state's force when they were trying to get rid of Gota. The moment someone who they felt could represent their class interests took the throne, they vanished.
#TransIsBeautiful say it back
Isn't there an update to this story, @Dailymirror_SL on the discovery of an unidentified body found at Galle Face? Am I the only one who has noticed that most newspapers/websites only report about discovering a body, but there is rarely a follow up on such stories? #LKA #SriLanka
The joke is surely on us, right Madam Ambassador? Giving money to SL defense to end human trafficking is like giving Pablo Escobar money to end drug trafficking.
The US is committed to ending human trafficking in all its forms. That’s why we’re providing over $1 million to a partnership with @IOMSriLanka and @LkDefence to protect and support trafficking survivors – and to ensure perpetrators of these terrible crimes are held accountable.
Did you see any lawsuites being filed ? Thats why we were asking for a system change where the law would be equal for everyone. #SriLanka #GoHomeGota
@NCdeMel @RW_UNP Probably @USAmbSL should watch how Capitol Building was cleared before trying to police Sri Lankan forces. Batton charge, pepper spray and Arrests was used to control. youtu.be/G3x-rfC8WdY
@rimasafridi What do you mean by way of negotiations? Have you been in an IMF negotiation?
Same here. But difference is I had to leave during the last year of the Yahapalanaya when Ranil, Mangala et al turned a complete blind eye to the ways and means of the military. Leaving the land you love, changing careers, starting from scratch is life devastating. (1)
Gotabaya Rajapaksa forced me to leave the only home I have ever known. Surreal to watch him fleeing under the cover of darkness, supposedly afraid for his life. Thinking today of the countless victims who stayed in #SriLanka and endured. #ResignationDay
@exfrotezter thanks v much for bringing this up. I am upset by what has come out of Reuters and their subscribers on this story. I consented to an interview and spoke at length on the decentralized nature of the Aragalaya. How it’s STRENGTH is that it has no leaders..
Be on the look out for those who are looking to take credit, appropriate the movement for personal gain. @Reuters I am curious how you were able to compress the efforts of millions to a group of individuals. Did you zoom into to three people in this pic and said, we’ve got them!
