Norwegian fans turned Ullevaal Stadium into a sea of Palestinian flags during their 5–0 win over Israel in the 2026 World Cup qualifier. Thousands held up symbolic “red cards” to Israel, calling for accountability over the genocide in Gaza.
Earlier, the Norwegian Football Federation pledged to donate all ticket revenue from the match to humanitarian aid for Gaza, saying, “Neither we nor other organisations can remain indifferent to the humanitarian suffering."

Former US President Barack Obama is facing backlash on social media for dehumanising and biased language in his Gaza ceasefire statement. His post referred to “Israeli families” but only “the people of Gaza,” sparking anger for erasing Palestinian humanity and loss.
Obama wrote that “after two years of unimaginable loss and suffering for Israeli families and the people of Gaza,” an end to the “conflict” was “within sight.” He urged both sides to “begin the hard task of rebuilding Gaza,” a framing that portrays Israeli onslaught as a shared burden rather than an occupation and siege.
Social media users said Obama’s phrasing echoes a Western pattern that humanises Israelis while reducing Palestinians to a nameless collective.
“People of Gaza? No families in Gaza?” one user wrote. “Did you see the family trees of the dozens and hundreds of families Israel erased?”
Obama's use of “conflict” was also criticised for downplaying Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza.

As Gaza begins the long journey of rebuilding after the ceasefire, we remember some of the silenced voices of its academics, scientists, and thinkers – among the more than 67,000 people killed in Israel’s genocidal war on the Palestinian enclave over the past two years.
Israel’s systematic targeting of Gaza’s intellectuals was not accidental, but by design as part of a deliberate effort to strip Palestinian society of its cultural and intellectual backbone and erase a generation’s potential.

Thousands of displaced Palestinians walked across Gaza’s devastated landscape on Friday, making their way back to the ruins of their former homes as a ceasefire took hold and Israeli forces began withdrawing under a deal to end the war.
A massive crowd moved north along the coastal highway toward Gaza City — the enclave’s largest urban center — which had been heavily bombarded only days earlier in one of Israel’s most intense assaults of the conflict.
