Heroes.
I love these people so much. The crew onboard the Handala freedom flotilla were chanting and singing together just minutes before their abduction by the Israeli forces. They are the best of humanity. We are all Handala.

#CeasefireNow so that innocent civilian can have food!
Gaza is more than a humanitarian crisis – it is a moral crisis that challenges the global conscience. We will continue to speak out. But words don’t feed hungry children. The @UN stands ready to make the most of a ceasefire to dramatically scale up humanitarian operations.
Feed the Children of Gaza, no child should be starving.
If only words of condemnation would feed the starving children of Gaza. Enough statements. The people of Gaza need action and they need it now! End arm sales to Israel. Impose economic sanctions against them so they feel international pressure and let aid flow into Gaza.
The suffering and starvation unfolding in Gaza is unspeakable and indefensible.
Heroes.
🚨Heartfelt words from American doctor Elidalis Burgos, currently in Gaza on a volunteer medical mission, with child Mohammad Abu Asi the sole survivor of an Israeli airstrike that killed his entire family.
In any famine, humans must have a right and an obligation to help fellow humans who are starving. No moral principle gets as elementary as this. In any other situation we would have the opportunity to help during famine. Except Gaza. Shame on all of us and shame on our…
I have never felt so shaken. Children are dying of hunger. Falling one after another, like petals of a dying flower. Under our watch. How do you sleep, Presidents, Foreign Ministers, political leaders, diplomats, civil servants - doing nothing to stop Israel’s starvation…

The sheer intellectual collapse you have to experience to be faced with 122 international aid organisations telling you the same thing... ISRAEL IS STARVING GAZANS... only to decide they are ALL lying & that actually Benjamin Netanyahu, on trial for fraud, is telling the truth.
In an Instagram video, Scotland’s ex-First Minister Humza Yousaf and his wife say their relatives in Gaza—including a baby—are being deliberately starved, urgently calling for borders to open and aid to be allowed through.
Shame on all of us for letting this happen to fellow humans. Our generation will not be forgiven.

This is a blog post I wrote on the HNSW vector index design, which is perhaps the most popular vector index design adopted by databases at this point. It's also what is implemented in @kuzudb. The post is based on some lectures I gave last fall on vector indices in my graduate…

🚨 She couldn’t hold back her tears. British doctors Tanya Haj-Hassan and Graeme Groom appealed to politicians to take meaningful action for the children of Gaza, after witnessing firsthand the unimaginable horrors they are enduring during their visit to Gaza amid the ongoing…
🚨 BREAKING: The Israeli army launched a direct strike on a kindergarten in Gaza while children were inside. The attack left several children injured, turning a place of safety and learning into a scene of terror.
How is this possible in 2025 while we can watch it happen in front of our computers?
For as long as it takes, if not my generation, it will be our children or their children who will bring the criminals who starved Yazan and the children of #Gaza to justice.
Netanyahu’s atrocities are not limited to Gaza. He has also unleashed terrorist settlers in the West Bank who attack civilians and recently beat a young American to death. Even Trump’s ambassador, Mike Huckabee, called this a “terrorist act.” NO MORE MILITARY AID TO ISRAEL.
Graduation ceremony at the University of Edinburgh ❤️ Proud of all the brave students who stand for the occupied starved murdered people of Palestine 🇵🇸 #FreePalestine
Every single day. The Israelis massacre hungry Palestinians trying to get food. It is pure evil and one of the great crimes of our lifetime. Enabled by Trump, and blessed by Starmer and the rest of the Western leadership.
BREAKING: 32 people have been killed and 100 injured while waiting for aid near a Gaza Humanitarian Foundation site, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. trib.al/1KjH0dp 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube
