R to @samiraraf: Many customers have found themselves hesitant to call their families because of the excessive phone costs. Many thanks to @debroervanroos and Boos for kickstarting this initiative and convincing @KPN , @vodafoneNL, and @odidonederland to make calling to Gaza accessible.

But without a definition of rape and consent based rape legislation. While both the
https://nitter.cz/Europarl_EN
and
https://nitter.cz/EU_Commission
law experts said this should be possible. But unfortunately some Member States are still blocking this. I really don’t know what to think now. It’s shameful.

RT by @samiraraf: UNRWA is a critical lifeline for millions of Palestinians suffering from catastrophic hunger and the outbreak of diseases. An independent investigation into allegations is needed, but defunding would amount to collective punishment.
