International newspapers and websites: The cost of supporting Palestinians.. Besieged villages in the West Bank.. Activists on hunger strike in Britain

International newspapers and websites addressed the cost of supporting Palestinians amid the Israeli war, shedding light on the reality of besieged villages in the West Bank, the suffering of activists on hunger strike in Britain, alongside the repercussions of the starvation policy in Gaza and other regional developments.

In the West Bank, the British Guardian newspaper reported that international volunteers have become a line of protection for Palestinians from settler attacks, especially in the village of Ras Ein al-Auja, where residents live besieged and deprived of pastures and springs, amid attempts to force them to leave.

The newspaper added that the volunteers themselves are subjected to direct attacks, which forced some of them to wear protective vests while accompanying the locals, in a scene that reflects the escalation of settler violence and the residents' inability to protect themselves in the absence of accountability.

In London, the Sunday Times revealed the hunger strike of one pro-Palestine activist inside prison, warning of the risk of his death before his trial, as part of a case involving 6 activists who protested Britain's support for Israel during the Gaza war.

The newspaper mentioned that Kamran Ahmed, aged 28, continues his strike for 6 weeks, relying on faith and reading to endure, and said that the strike has highlighted their cause, despite the psychological pressure it caused on his family and friends.

For its part, the Israeli Haaretz newspaper published an analysis that spoke of a relative improvement in food availability in the Gaza Strip, but emphasized that this does not absolve the Israeli government of responsibility for a deliberate starvation policy that resulted in the deaths of hundreds and left tens of thousands at risk of severe hunger.

As for outside the Palestinian file, the New York Times covered American raids on ISIS sites in Syria, considering that they reveal the magnitude of challenges facing the new Syrian authorities, while the Wall Street Journal defended the American security strategy and called on Europe to bear its defense responsibilities.
