Yes you read this correctly. The Israeli intent is to maim kill and cleanse
Children account for 23% of amputations, 26% of spinal cord injuries, 33% of brain injuries, and 70% of burn cases requiring surgery. There are no specialized rehabilitation services for children anywhere in the Gaza Strip. — Health Cluster
Today, I spoke at the press conference for the historic Block the Bombs Act. Over 200 of my family members in Gaza have been killed with U.S.-funded weapons. This moment demands more than outrage—it demands action. 📞 call on your reps to support this bill now! Enough is enough.
The US has sent Israel $30B in weapons to enable atrocities against Palestinians since October 2023. Now @repdeliaramirez @RepSaraJacobs @RepJayapal & @RepMarkPocan have introduced the Block the Bombs Act to save lives by stopping the flow of US weapons. bit.ly/blockthebombs-…
Breaking: Ten child detainees arrive at Nasser Medical Complex after being held by the Israeli occupation for about a month. They were arrested near the Shakoush area west of Rafah, close to what is falsely called the “American humanitarian aid point.”
Astonishing. Explosive report from FT on the global consulting firm Boston Consulting Group, who were said to have modelled the costs of “relocating” Palestinians from Gaza. Complicity in a potential crime against humanity and/or act of genocide @BCG. ft.com/content/c0e661…
Eighteen Members of Congress joined me in a letter urging the Trump Administration to stop the Israeli government's mass starvation of Gaza and killing of hungry Palestinians.
My family in Gaza City have sent me desperate pleas for help just now -they fear it is not longer a matter of whether, but when they die, under heavy Israeli bombardment tonight -“pls pray for us-prayers are all we have left.”
Operation Salted Fish. You can’t make 💩 this up.
🚨Israeli soldiers admit they are playing Squid Game with the lives of starved Gazan children, women & civilians The IDF uses "heavy machine guns, grenade launchers, mortars" against desperate crowds as they wait for aid. They murdered over 550 within a month.
Suhayb, Ruhaf, and Rima Abdel Rahman Hamdiya were murdered by Israel while they were starving.
Israel has written one of the darkest pages in the history of genocide.
With the world looking elsewhere, the militarization of aid adds another layer to Israel’s deliberate imposition of genocidal conditions against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip. Hundreds of Palestinians have been killed and injured at or near aid distribution points…
Let us not forget Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya. Israel killed his son, raided the hospital where he worked, wounded him, and bombed the hospital he directed—before arresting him in late December. Nearly 6 months later, Dr. Abu Safiya remains under torture in Israeli prisons.
The Israelis target and kill children for fun. They slaughter children for fun. When people talk about 'protecting Israel' -- this is what they are asking be protected. This is what they are saying has a right to exist and flourish.
Trump said he would end wars. Tonight, he dragged us into one. His decision violates the Constitution, endangers American lives and risks unleashing dangerous forces we can’t control. My full statement:
May they be reunited in Jannah and may calamity be replaced with something infinitely better 🤲🏼🤲🏼
This is the son of my neighbor who was killed today. His parents waited for 15 years before this child came into their world. His name is Kinan al-Masri. He is a beautiful child. Israel killed him. And you did not stop them from committing this crime and thousands more.
Iran: Weeks away from having nuclear weapons since 1995
What a beautiful heart. Shame on you oh neighbors of your starving “brothers” you have left for slaughter.
WATCH | A Welsh nurse pleaded with Egyptian security forces to let him and other Global March participants reach the Gaza border to protest the blockade. But Egypt has so far refused. Organizers urged all participants to return to Cairo after they were stopped and physically…
It was a true honor. I only wish it did not take a genocide to win an award or for people’s eyes to be opened. Still, we will continue to resist by narrating our own stories
Congratulations to me and my dear sister Laila El-Haddad on each winning a prestigious JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION AWARD 2025. I won in Personal Essay Laila won in Personal Essay with Recipes. We Palestinians win, with or without recipes. Laila read her remarks, which represent me…
🚨 IOF illegally encircling the Freedom Flotilla…
At this moment Israeli occupation gunboats are intercepting Flotilla boat..
Pls amplify and support these brave souls who are trying to establish a humanitarian corridor by sea to our people in Gaza
It’s the 6th day of our journey onboard the Madleen to #breakthesiege of Gaza and create a people’s humanitarian sea corridor! The Freedom Flotilla Coalition will never stop due to the Zionists threats. We know we have billions of people along with the 12 of us on this boat!
Thank you @repdeliaramirez for your moral clarity and courage
I've introduced the Block the Bombs Act with 21 of my colleagues to withhold certain offensive weapons that are supplied by the U.S. to Israel and demand Israel’s compliance with U.S. and international law. Block the Bombs is the first step toward real oversight and…
