The UN is calling the occupied West Bank’s current crisis the worst since 1967 — with 37,000+ Palestinians displaced in 2025, record settler violence, military operations destroying refugee camps, and a new land registry plan condemned by 80+ countries as de facto annexation.
Eight Palestinians were deported from the US to the occupied West Bank on a private jet owned by a Trump business partner — a move described as ‘highly unusual’ even by Israeli sources. The case exposes the deepening entanglement of private financial interests, pro-Israel lobbying, and US immigration enforcement.
The UN says 230,000 women and girls in Gaza — including 15,000 pregnant women — have almost no access to reproductive healthcare due to Israeli attacks on health facilities, forced displacement, and aid restrictions that continue despite a ceasefire.
Israeli rights group B’Tselem’s new report ‘Living Hell’ documents a systematic ‘network of torture camps’ in which 84 Palestinians — including one minor — have died in Israeli custody since October 2023, with abuse described as more extensive than ever.
Offensive hate graffiti was discovered on Edinburgh Central Mosque, alarming worshippers and prompting condemnation from local residents and community leaders. Police are treating the incident as a hate crime. United Voices stands with Scotland’s Muslim community and calls for full accountability.

On January 9, Rep. Hillary Cassel withdrew her “No Shari’a Act” and filed HB 1471 — a sweeping bill that absorbs the anti-Shari’a provisions and adds the power to designate domestic terrorist organizations, expel students, cut off school vouchers, and prosecute supporters. A companion bill makes the process secret. It is exactly what DeSantis called for one month earlier.
