J&K: Anger in Poonch After Videos Allegedly Show Torture of Three Civilians In Army Questioning https://thewire.in/rights/anger-in-poonch-after-videos-show-three-dead-after-alleged-army-questioning After videos showing the alleged torture of detained civilians spread online, their death has triggered massive protests in Srinagar. News agencies say the internet has been shut down in the district

. “I have served in the forces for 32 years, my brother’s death is the reward for my loyalty” says Noor Ahmed, brother of a civilian who was among the eight people reportedly picked up by the Army for questioning on Friday (December 22).“My younger brother Safeer has suffered violence; my faith is shaken. Top officials have visited our homes, given us compensation, assured justice, but will we ever get it? My 43-year-old brother has left behind four children, who will raise them?” he told The Wire.

Ahmed also said, “I have served across India, have been a part of the intelligence services; if this can happen to us, how can anyone else be safe?”

Mehmood Ahmed, the village’s sarpanch, said that all three civilians belonged to poverty-stricken families and lived hand to mouth. 

कश्मीर पर चुप क्यों सरकार? | Govt's silence on kashmir https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXWy6TgnaAY कश्मीर से दो ख़बरें आई हैं। बारामुला में आतंकवादियों ने पुलिस के एक पूर्व SSP शफी मीर की हत्या कर दी है। दूसरे मामले में सेना पर FIR हुई है कि सेना की कस्टडी में तीन लोगों की मौत हुई है। आज के इस वीडियो में हमने विश्लेषण किया है कि किस तरह हिंदी प्रदेश के अख़बारों ने दूसरी ख़बर पर पर्दा डालने का काम किया है। एक ही ख़बर को अलग अलग संस्करणों में अलग अलग पन्नों पर छापा जाता है। इस वीडियो को दोबारा चला कर देखिएगा, आपको पता चलेगा कि बहुत लोगों को अभी तक अख़बार पढ़ना भी नहीं आता था। कितना कुछ गायब कर दिया जाता है, कितना कुछ हल्का कर दिया जाता है और उन बातों को अब प्रमुख नहीं बनाया जाता जिनसे मोदी सरकार पर कोई आंच आए। ख़बरों का काम अब मोदी सरकार को बचाना हो गया है। हिरासत के भय से पत्रकारिता भी दम तोड़ चुकी है। इसकी जांच कोई नहीं करेगा। सब कुछ प्रचार है, पत्रकारिता का अचार है।

Security Council adopts key resolution on Gaza crisis https://news.un.org/en/story/2023/12/1145022

The Council demanded that the parties “allow, facilitate and enable” the immediate, safe and unhindered delivery of humanitarian assistance at scale directly to the Palestinian civilian population throughout the Gaza Strip. It also requested the UN Secretary-General to appoint a Senior Humanitarian and Reconstruction Coordinator with responsibility for “facilitating, coordinating, monitoring, and verifying” in Gaza, as appropriate, the humanitarian nature of all relief consignments to the enclave provided through States that are not party to the conflict.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZmSVxTp0Rk The U.N. Security Council adopted a watered-down resolution Friday calling for immediately speeding aid deliveries to hungry and desperate civilians in Gaza but without the original plea for an “urgent suspension of hostilities” between Israel and Hamas.

The long-delayed vote in the 15-member council was 13-0 with the United States and Russia abstaining. The U.S. abstention avoided a third American veto of a Gaza resolution following Hamas’ surprise Oct. 7 attacks inside Israel. Russia wanted the stronger language restored; the U.S. did not.
