On the Day He Was Fired as National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz Used an Israeli App to Archive Signal Messages

A #tech company with ties to Israeli intelligence, TeleMessage’s riskier app appears to be favored by Trump’s national security team.

"During Wednesday’s meeting for #Trump’s cabinet, Mike Waltz checked the app on his phone, using what appeared to be Signal. As news broke that #Waltz had lost his job as National Security Advisor, images from the cabinet meeting circulated widely online on Thursday. Upon closer inspection of the photos, it turned out that Waltz was not using the traditional #Signal app. He appeared to be using an archiving app made by #Israeli firm TeleMessage, which sells companion apps meant to enable archiving messages."

New Gaza Ceasefire Proposal Contains “Red Lines” for Hamas on Continued Israeli Occupation and Disarmament

Drop Site obtained the draft of a deal currently being pushed by the U.S., #Egypt, and #Qatar. Hamas insists it will not capitulate to #Netanyahu’s new demands.

"It is on this point—the conditions for a permanent ceasefire—that #Hamas and Israel stand in complete opposition to each other. The current draft effectively asks Hamas to agree to continued military occupation of #Gaza and disarmament."

Israeli Policies and Settler Violence Are Driving Palestinians from the #JordanValley

In the occupied #WestBank, Israeli restrictions on movement for #Palestinians, denial of access to resources, and settlement expansion have all ramped up over the past 18 months.

From #DropSiteNews
Apr 14, 2025

'"We live in constant anxiety, day and night, due to #settler attacks," Bsharat told Drop Site. His family of 12 relies primarily on their flock of sheep for a living. In recent months, they have been repeatedly threatened by #Israeli settlers, who warn they will be shot if they cross onto the nearby land. "They raid our communities with tractors, provoke residents, and prevent us from accessing grazing areas. The army and settlers have seized the land for settler cattle farms."'

Leaked Data Reveals Massive Israeli Campaign to Remove Pro-#Palestine Posts on Facebook and Instagram

Apr 11, 2025

"A sweeping crackdown on posts on #Instagram and #Facebook that are critical of #Israel—or even vaguely supportive of #Palestinians—was directly orchestrated by the government of Israel, according to internal Meta data obtained by Drop Site News. The data show that #Meta has complied with 94% of takedown requests issued by Israel since October 7, 2023. Israel is the biggest originator of takedown requests globally by far, and #Meta has followed suit—widening the net of posts it automatically removes, and creating what can be called the largest mass #censorship operation in modern history."

"DEIR AL-BALAH, GAZA—Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah is a place of concentrated horror and suffering. There is not a moment of tranquility here. A constant stream of ambulances rush in loaded with casualties—mostly crushed and charred bodies and dismembered children. The wards echo with the screams of mothers. Sobbing toddlers wander the halls looking for family members. Funeral prayers are held every hour, barely keeping up with the rising number of dead."

"Days after the closure began, Abadleh tried to get her hands on heparin injections in public hospitals and private pharmacies but found none. "Everyone told me the medicine wasn’t available,” she said. “I asked them, ‘What should I do now? ...

Abadleh’s condition deteriorated, when she began experiencing abdominal cramps. The next day, she woke up to a sharp pain and feared the worst... Her husband rushed her to a private clinic nearby, but it was too late: she had suffered a miscarriage."
