Protests against pollution in Gabas, Tunisia - the banner reads in English and Arabic "Stop pollution in Gabas, Stop pollution everywhere"

Tunisia: “We want to live”: the people of Gabès revolt against environmental destruction

The Tunisian Revolution opened the door to a wave of protest movements and the raising of social demands across the country. Gabès, which had suffered from gas emissions and pollution caused by the chemical complex since the 1970s, also rose up. Protests escalated to the point of sit-ins inside the factory and even temporary shutdowns of production, demanding either the closure of the complex or a radical solution to reclaim their city from what they call “pollution and death.”

Banner at front of demonstration in Serbia reading "Your hands are dripping blood"

Serbian students tell Vucic “Your hands are bloody”

There is so much wrong for us to see. The evil is now so deep, and we are so far into the revolution that we see that corruption is only the tip of the iceberg, just one of the methods they are using to abuse us. We are living in a collective nightmare. And everyone, the whole world is experiencing it. The longer it goes on, the harder it will be to clean up the consequences of their actions.

Protesters in Kuala Lumpa after the Flotilla is attacked

Flotilla blocked, need to widen solidarity action

Only through the political self-organisation of the Palestinian working class and youth acting together with the organised working class of the Middle East and North Africa can imperialism and the capitalist regimes, along with those who have misled the Palestinian struggle throughout its history, be challenged and a genuine revolutionary movement for the liberation of Palestine succeed. This is why international solidarity is critically important, the imperialist-Zionist war machine with its genocide needs to be stopped so that the Palestinians themselves are able to enact their own liberation. Their victory would be a victory for the working class and oppressed all over the world.

Gaza genocide – a fault line exposing a rotten capitalist order

The global solidarity movement for Palestine is already unparalleled in world history. And it’s not only the scale of the protests, but what people are witnessing – the unimaginable horror, hypocrisy and cynicism – and how deeply this is changing the political outlook of millions across the planet. The basis is being laid for explosions of anger and discontent. In this way the genocide and the struggle for Palestinian liberation is directly changing politics in many countries, and laying the groundwork for new political movements.

Chennai Sanitation workers on strike attacked by the police

Chennai’s Sanitation Workers Fight Back Against Capital and Caste

This struggle is fundamentally a feminist one. Sanitation work in India is not gender-neutral—it is an occupation overwhelmingly performed by women from Dalit communities. Their bodies are on the front lines, exposed to toxic waste, health hazards, and the social stigma of their caste. When the government moves to privatize sanitation services, it is not just threatening jobs; it is directly targeting the livelihoods of thousands of marginalized women.

Destruction wreaked on Gaza

Strike against Gaza holocaust—Shut down the system of genocide

A struggle for Palestinian national liberation is bound with a need for more fundamental revolutionary change. The Israeli State is part of the system of capitalism and imperialism that dominates and exploits the peoples of the Middle East and beyond – a system built on racism, exploitation, poverty and oppression. Its whole rule must be torn down.

The Sumud flotilla with many boats sets out from Genoa

Sumud flotilla sets out as Arab rulers bury heads in the sand

The destruction of the Israeli Apartheid state is not just the responsibility of the workers of West Asia, it is even more the responsibility of workers in the imperialist powers which have established, supported and armed Israel to defend their plunder of the region. Unless workers’ organisations fight for Palestinian liberation they will be unable to fight effectively for the genuine liberation of their own members.

Young female protester confronting massed riot police

Indonesia explodes in revolt

These protests have expressed not just outrage at parliamentary ‘excesses’, but deep rage at a system built on structural inequalities, elite plunder, and growing state authoritarianism– all at the expense of the millions who toil to survive. Ruling institutions are perceived as so rotten and untrustworthy that protesters have been calling for “Bubarkan DPR”—the dissolution of the Parliament itself.

Protest outside Egyptian embassy in Beirut. The placard reads "You siege Gaza, we siege your embassy"

Interview: Protests against genocide in Gaza need stepping up

In Gaza itself, there’s been the whole charade with the airdrops. I think they dropped about 2000 food parcels. This is about 0.4% of what was needed in the time that they dropped them. The minimum Gaza needs is about 600 trucks per day, and what they dropped was equivalent to 200 trucks, not in a day but over two weeks. So the lives of Palestinians in Gaza have only worsened, there is now stage five hunger. Every day that passes means more people are close, dangerously close to dying. Other people are getting weaker so they cannot help with getting the food.
