“Israel has killed a classroom full of children every single day.” UNRWA Sam Rose tells BBC Radio 4. Children in #Gaza have been killed while sleeping, sheltering in schools, or queuing for water. Graphic by @TRTWorld
The sweeping impunity granted to the Israeli regime for its genocide in Gaza is enabling it to pursue its ultimate goal: a greater Israel. This is what are watching unfold before our eyes.

There is no redemption for allowing this genocide to take place. There is no coming back from this.
A British Save The Children official on RTE radio now: "Children in Gaza are telling us they want to die because there's water and food in heaven and they'll meet their families." The UK/EU and US are the hand that enables this.
Alex de Waal is one of the world's foremost experts on famine. Listen to every word he says about Israel's forced starvation of the people of Gaza: "There is no case since WW2 of starvation that has been so minutely designed and controlled"
Children will always be the first to die in a starvation campaign or famine. Their little bodies are less able to cope with the deprivation of nutrients. If they survive the starvation, they are often left with lifelong damages to their physical and cognitive development.…
“Gave up her fight for life” is a fucking insane way to say “Razan Abu Zaher was starved to death by Israel.” My god, these people are irredeemable.
WFP Statement | #Gaza On the morning of 20 July, a 25 truck WFP convoy carrying vital food assistance crossed the Zikim border point destined for starving communities in northern Gaza. Shortly after passing the final checkpoint beyond the Zikim crossing point into Gaza, the…
Below is a message from Anas Alshariff Al Jazeera journalist in Gaza. He, along with nearly two million Gazans, including women and children, are being starved under the draconian siege and ongoing bombardment by Israeli occupying forces. We call for immediate humanitarian aid…
🔴100% of people in #Gaza face acute levels of food insecurity Source: WFP
In #Gaza, people are being starved. Families can’t find flour. People are going without meals for days. Prices have increased by over 4,000 %. The Israeli Authorities have banned 🛑UNRWA from bringing food into Gaza for over 4 months. This is a manmade and politically…
People in Gaza are collapsing all over from hunger. Babies and children are dying from malnutrition. This is a forced starvation campaign and it is pure evil.
I couldn’t hold back my emotions… People were collapsing from hunger in Al-Shifa Hospital’s courtyard, as the bodies of dozens killed by Israeli forces arrived—targeted while trying to get a bag of flour.
There is enough food to feed all of Gaza’s population for months stockpiled in warehouses just miles from where people are being starved. The sadism of this policy - and the complicity of Europe, the US and neighboring countries - is a moral depravity.
UNRWA has enough food for the entire population of #Gaza for over three months stockpiled in warehouses–including this one in Al Arish, Egypt–awaiting entry. The supplies are available. The systems are in place. Open the gates, lift the siege, allow UNRWA to do its work and…
JUST IN | Rep. Ocasio-Cortez defended her vote to continue using American taxpayer money to fund Israel’s military, saying the GOP amendment would have cut “defensive Iron Dome capacities,” so “of course I voted against it.” She did not explain why a highly belligerent apartheid…
Marjorie Taylor Greene’s amendment does nothing to cut off offensive aid to Israel nor end the flow of US munitions being used in Gaza. Of course I voted against it. What it does do is cut off defensive Iron Dome capacities while allowing the actual bombs killing Palestinians to…
Gaza is facing a devastating surge in *Guillain Barré Syndrome*, a rare paralyzing complication of infectious disease. In just over a week, 15 children have been admitted to Al-Nasser Medical Complex. Five are now on life support. One 14-year-old has already died. Every child…
For the first time in history, Gaza is importing 100% of its blood units, as the severe hunger and dehydration have left the entire population too unwell to donate.
🚨 TESTIMONY: Freed Palestinian prisoner, journalist Sami al-Sa’i, describes how he was raped by Israeli soldiers with objects as a “welcome” to Israel’s notorious Megiddo “Prison.” He says the assault left him bleeding from his rectum for 22 days without any medical care.…
This is beyond complicity. They might as well hire Netanyahu at this point.
EXPOSED: A new dossier from @wawog_now reveals material and ideological ties between Israel and journalists, editors, and executives of The New York Times. Whether serving in the IOF or taking money from pro-Israel consultancies, the staff at the Times is compromised.
