"Ms Cheema said all the charity workers she had spoken to had been "at the verge of tears for the last few weeks".
"We don't know how best to support people," she added. "They are people who've done nothing wrong, they've committed no offences. They've been met with people banging down their doors, with detention"
One more example of "administrative detention", this time a young West Bank Palestinian Christian woman taken away in the night by the IDF.
Justin Welby is "shocked".
Why?
This happens every day in the West Bank Occupied Territories. It's how "the only democracy in the Middle East " behaves.
«Last night we learned #DOJ re-arrested #Smirnov after his release. Now we know why. A #California judge seems to be suggesting his lawyers are complicit in his efforts to flee, in a remarkable line ordering #detention for the #FBI source whose lies propelled #Biden#Impeachment efforts.»
#Trump & allies planning militarized #MassDeportations, detention #camps
As president, Trump sought to use #military planes & bases for #deportation. Now, he and his allies are talking about a new effort that current & fmr ofcls warn could be impractical & dangerous.
Fmr admin ofcls & policy experts said staging an even larger operation today would face a bottleneck in #detention space — a problem that #Trump adviser #StephenMiller & other allies have proposed addressing by building mass #deportation camps. [#ConcentrationCamps]
Recordatorio de que #Devotion, más o menos secuela de #Detention por Red Candle Games, sigue a la venta sin DRM en su propia tienda web. Usuarios chinos (quién sabe si cuentas falsas) sabotearon el estreno del juego en tiendas populares de #videojuegos como #Steam y #GOG por ser de una desarrolladora taiwanesa que se atrevió a ridiculizar al primer ministro chino. https://shop.redcandlegames.com/app/devotion

"#SimonLachner had plans to glue himself to a German city thoroughfare in June to call public attention to #ClimateChange. Instead, he ended up in police custody before he'd even left his home.
"Lachner, 28, is one of thousands of #activists caught up in a European crackdown on direct action protests which gathered pace last year. #Protesters are demanding urgent government action against climate change.
"#Roadblocks on major motorways in #Britain have caused traffic chaos, protests at #oil installations in #Germany have disrupted supplies, and in #France, thousands of activists and police clashed over #water usage, leaving dozens injured.
"Determined to prevent such protests from strengthening further, states in Germany and national authorities in France are invoking legal powers often used against organised crime and extremist groups to wiretap and track activists, Reuters found, based on conversations with four prosecutors, #police in both countries and more than a dozen protesters.
"In #Berlin alone, police have spent hundreds of thousands of hours working on more than 4,500 incidents registered against the 'The #LastGeneration' and '#ExtinctionRebellion' groups, according to previously unreported data from police.
"State authorities in Germany are widely using preventative #detention to stop people from protesting, including holding at least one person for as long as 30 days without charge.
"This is permissible under Bavarian law, the prosecutors consulted by Reuters said.
"Lawmakers passed new surveillance and detention laws in France in July and in Britain in May. Britain is making it illegal to lock, or glue, yourself to property.
"France has used an anti-terrorism unit to question some #ClimateActivists, the police confirmed to Reuters.
"The governments in Germany and Britain said the response to the protests was aimed at preventing damaging criminal actions. The French government declined to comment but has previously said the state must be able to combat what it calls 'radicalisation'.
"Activists say they turned to direct action after the failure of other protest strategies. #CivilDisobedience has a long history in #SocialMovements, including in the fight for the vote for women and the US #CivilRghts movement."
The #UK is following in other #European countries footsteps with new powers to break up the #climate group's slow marches.

"This is the first time that the Met have made arrests under section 7 of the #PublicOrderAct 2023, which bans any activity that 'interferes with the use or operation of any key national infrastructure in #England and #Wales.'
