World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Sadly israel directly kidnapped many of the Palestinian hostages again after releasing them.
The IDF kidnapped almost as many hostages as they released during the truce. Now more. And they torture their hostages whereas Hamas doesn't. And israel violated the truce at the start of it by shooting civilians returning north.
It's sad that the IDF are such an untrustworthy terrorist organization.
BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
You have to hand it to them - lying that unashamedly is impressive! Hamas doesn't torture...yeesh.
If only every single hostage released by Hamas didn't prove my point am I right?
And every single hostage released by IDF terrorists says they were tortured, including women and children being starved, beaten to broken bones, threatened with rape, tear gassed in their cells for three days straight and being denied any medical care causing many to die am I right? (and that's just a few examples of IDF terrorist crimes)
;)
Hahaha... Right... this is hamas. As you can see no torture.
The site doesn't work, but yes the hostages have all stated they were treated well after they were taken to the tunnels.
That's because these hostages are in the spotlight for everyone to see, they're special.
Your site contains made up IDF propganda stated as facts without any evidence.
There is not a single gopro video of Hamas or any israeli CCTV camera that recorded any rape. And the israelis have a lot of CCTV cameras
The 40 beheaded babies were probably on there too until the IDF admitted that was a blatant lie as well.
Aside from killing civilians almost every "war crime Hamas did" was a lie made up by the IDF.
So the pictures of burnt babies, beheadings of hostages, and undressed dead girls do not convince you that Hamas actually committed atrocities?
Those burnt babies were from Apache helicopters firing hellfire missles at kibbutses. I wonder who has the hellfire missles.
Hint it's not Hamas.
Yes, of course, first the hellfire missile rounds up the children, then it ties them up with wires and burns them. Of course that is what explains the results. It also undressed women and tied them before burning them alive. Common effect of hellfire missiles. happens all the time with that sort of ammunition.
Do link the evidence of that please. From all the hours of Gopro footage the IDF were sadly unable to find Hamas killing even a single child but they did find many videos of Hamas intentionally sparing children. And there is zero evidence of rape with rape kits either.
Is your evidence right next to the 40 beheaded babies?
Haha, hahahaahah. Right terrorist organization is made up, everything is made up just to trick little old you.
You can stop shilling for the hamas already.
Which thing I stated wasn't true? (hint everything I said is true and you know it)
🥱
The Palestinian prisoners are not hostages. Comparing random civilians, elderly, and babies to convicted terrorists is Hamas level propaganda.
You're disgusting. Just to clear the rest up, there are 1200 who are in "administrative detention", which is where they pick up a random Palestinian off the street and put them in prison. And in people who are charged, they're charged by a military court with a 95% conviction rate where the most common charge is throwing stones.
That is the same guilty rate as Israel's internal convictions and is caused by police not bothering with anything that is not an easy win.
The administrative detention also has judicial checks and limitations. Also, these are not random people picked off the streets, these are terrorists or would be terrorists where, for the most part, the evidence for detaining them is too sensitive from intelligence point of view to share in a trial.
If the Palestinian prisoners were convicted terrorists, then why did Israel release them? 🤔

"The prisoners – including 23 children and seven women – were released hours after eight Israeli captives were freed by Hamas."
23 kids and seven women... yeah, sounds like a bunch of die hard radicals!
You're right, there are only security cameras of a few of these children running around stabbing civilians. I guess Al Jazeera forgot to mention that to you.
Kidnapped children without trial are not hostages?
You can stop shilling for the Nazis now.
Detaining 15 year old children that stab civilians is also a valid way of describing the reality. Also, according to UN and Al Jazeera, a 17 year old self proclaimed Hamas fighter that tries to kill Israeli civilians with a AK is a child. Somehow you take it to mean that he is innocent.
