This is the sixteenth month since the current Israel-Hamas conflict commenced. I have been keeping copies of selected online content since 7 October 2023. While there is a ceasefire (at the time of writing) I have maintained this page title for the time being …
Some of these posts feature on my BlueSky and X pages (@garybunt), and are usually posted there first, along with related materials and extra links (there’s often a time lag between posting on X and posting here!). The intention is to keep a snapshot of these posts (X posts disappear occasionally) and other content. I’m planning to write about these sources in due course.
