A two panel political cartoon. Panel one, a spokesperson for Amnesty International, in a yellow helmet and flak jacket, is announcing to the press: "Israel is committing acts of genocide in Gaza". Panel two, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is sitting in a fighter jet: "We may need to step up the bombing campaign". The jet is labelled Google Ads. The jet is armed with advertisements depicting black-balaclava-clad Hamas figures with United Nations Aid Agency headbands. Two military characters are installing another similar ad, but the headband on this one is yellow and reads "Amnesty".

Today's #cartoon is about Gaza, and Israel's information war
Israel has been buying online ads to attack #UNRWA, the United Nation's relief agency working in #Gaza https://www.wired.com/story/israel-unrwa-usa-hamas-google-search-ads/.
I presume those ads have increased in Australia this week to coincide with the visit of one of UNRWA's directors.

They also happen to coincide with an Amnesty International investigation, which has concluded Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2024/12/amnesty-international-concludes-israel-is-committing-genocide-against-palestinians-in-gaza/
