Two mosques in the German city of Hannover were defaced with graffiti apparently in support of the Israeli military’s campaign in Gaza. The attacks are part of a documented and accelerating wave of Islamophobia across Europe that United Voices has been tracking — from Ireland to the Netherlands to France to Germany.
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has confirmed that Israel was the world’s top killer of journalists in 2025 — for the third consecutive year. Israeli forces were responsible for the deaths of 29 Palestinian reporters, accounting for over 43 percent of all journalist killings worldwide. United Voices is calling on American and international media to break their silence.
When the Winooski School District in Vermont raised the Somali flag to show support for its Somali students after President Trump publicly attacked Somali communities in Minnesota, the school was immediately flooded with racist slurs, threats, and calls saying ‘We’re coming for you.’ United Voices is documenting what happens when a school tries to stand with its students.
Gov. Ron DeSantis signed an executive order designating CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as “foreign terrorist organizations” — a designation the federal government has not made. That same evening, he told Florida lawmakers to make it permanent law. CAIR called it unconstitutional and announced plans to sue.
Jewish leaders and Democrats are calling Florida’s proposed Shari’a ban hypocritical and unconstitutional. The bill’s sponsor and sole Democratic co-sponsor are both Jewish and pro-Israel. Critics say the bill, filed on the Oct 7 anniversary, amounts to collective punishment of Florida’s Muslim community.
During the annual olive harvest in the occupied West Bank, illegal Israeli settlers attacked a group of Palestinian villagers, activists, and journalists — including two Reuters employees — with sticks, clubs, and rocks. It is part of a documented pattern of settler violence carried out with near-total impunity, as the Trump administration has lifted sanctions that once provided some measure of accountability.
The Orlando Sentinel reports that Florida Republicans are calling for stripping voucher funding from Islamic schools while defending billions in public money for Christian ones. AG Uthmeier calls it a national security threat. There are roughly 24 Islamic schools in a program serving 2,278 campuses.
Retired Colonel Steve Gabavics, who led the U.S. military investigation into the 2022 killing of Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh, has told The New York Times that he and his team concluded an Israeli sniper deliberately shot her knowing she was a journalist — findings that a senior general allegedly disregarded and that the Biden administration’s public statement covered up. United Voices is calling for a real investigation and criminal charges.
