As Israel begins its ground invasion of Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah, Palestine This Week looks at the timing of the offensive, which has been launched despite a framework for a ceasefire being on the table.

Host Nasim Ahmed and guest Mouin Rabbani discuss the talks to agree a truce and what they mean for Palestinians on the ground and, as Israel expands its military attacks on Gaza, what the global response will be.

Over the past week, the US has advanced the controversial Anti-Semitism Awareness Act, which conflates legitimate criticism of Israel with anti-Jewish hate, in a move that could silence pro-Palestine activism both on and off campus.

But America isn’t only working to silence criticism of the occupation state within its borders, the ICC has called on US officials to stop issuing threats against its personnel as they look into possible Israeli war crimes in the occupied Palestinian territories.

Join Ahmed and Rabbani as they unpack what all this could mean for the region and for activists calling for peace for Palestinians.
