Yesterday a press conference was held to denounce the brutal crimes Israel commits daily against journalist. Until today, 39 Palestinian journalists have been murdered by the Israeli forces and many more remain threatened, harassed and silenced daily.
Grandma what are you doing? – “I'm sweeping away Bensalah, Belaiz, Bedoui, Said Bouteflika… all of them. They’re all going, not even one will remain. They need to get out of here. They should all be punished. They need to be held accountable. This is how we sweep”

Today, yet another journalist was killed. We, journalists, must stand tall against oppression and speak out against dehumanisation of the Palestinian people. We will not turn a blind eye to this genocide, and those who have chosen to do so, are complicit in war crimes unfolding.

On my way home today someone jumped in front of the train as it pulled up to Highbury and Islington station. It was such an awful thing to have experienced but I can not imagine what this person was enduring. My thoughts are with the family.

Police using water cannons to disperse protests whilst students chant “Give us shampoo too and we’ll be fine!” - I am living for these protests😂❤️ #لا_للعهدة_الخامسة

anniversary. Hats off to our incredible women who have always been the backbone of the liberation movement. They have spent much of their lives fighting against a system built to silence them through violence and misogynistic laws.

“Bouteflika doesn’t want to be Le Pouvoir, but rather the political system as was the case for Houari Boumediene, or Fidel Castro in Cuba. He wants to lead everyone, the army included. This is the fundamental problem.” - a must read by the brilliant

الذين يديرون الجيش هم مع #بوتفليقة من أمثال القائد صالح وكذلك بعض الجنرالات، هم لم يتخندقوا مع الشعب ويؤيدون بو تفليقة رغم أنه عاجز عن أداء مهامه الدستورية.. الشاعر قديما قال: إذا لم تر الهلال فسلم لأناس رأوه بالأبصار.. والهلال هنا هو الشعب. الآن يجب أن تعود الكلمة للشعب #الجزائر

: Roads have been blocked in Algiers to prevent protesters arriving from Bouira, Béjaia and Tizi Ouzou from entering the capital for today's march. In reactions, protesters have decided to continue the journey on foot. #حراك_15_مارس
Les bus de Bouira, Béjaïa et Tizi Ouzou en direction d'Alger sont bloqués et interdits d'accès à la capitale.
Plusieurs jeunes ont ainsi décidé de continuer la route à pied dans le but de trouver un moyen d'arriver à Alger pour la grande marche
