The daily news mainstream media is NOT covering - today’s MOH press conference from Gaza: 🔹 The Israeli crime and genocide of the population of the Gaza Strip is beyond description and beyond the limits of reason. Ending the Palestinian presence with American and European support is inhumane. 🔹During the past hours, the occupation committed 20 horrific massacres and annihilated entire families. We have received dozens of appeals from citizens in residential neighborhoods and schools, and among them was the Khalifa School in northern Gaza, where the occupation committed a hideous massacre that claimed the lives of dozens of martyrs and wounded who are bleeding to death, and the displaced there are in a catastrophic situation without No water, no food, and no treatment 🔹An ambulance was targeted while it was working to evacuate the wounded in the area of ​​the Gaza European Hospital, which led to the injury of two paramedics and damage to the ambulance, bringing the number of targeted vehicles to 57 ambulances. 🔹210 martyrs and 2,300 injured have reached hospitals. A large number of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads. 🔹 The toll of the Israeli aggression rose to 17,700 martyrs and 48,780 injuries as of last October 7. Attacking and destroying hospitals has always been a red line and a crime under international humanitarian law, but the Israeli occupation has crossed this line several times in a row, and its war against hospitals, ambulances and medical teams continues in front of the world’s eyes and ears, without lifting a finger to win for humanity. 🔹The Israeli occupation continues to besiege Kamal Adwan and Al-Awda Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip. During the past hours, the occupation snipers besieging Al-Awda Hospital killed two health personnel and killed and wounded many pregnant women when they arrived at the hospital to give birth. 🔹 Pregnant women in northern Gaza cannot access the maternity service at Al Awda Hospital, and this will cause them to be killed and their fetuses killed. 🔹The residents of northern Gaza are subjected to extermination from house to house and from school to school, and the wounded are left to die as a result of hospitals being sieged and out of service. 🔹Hospitals in southern Gaza have lost their capacity and are helpless in the face of the huge numbers of wounded and dozens of wounded are losing their lives. 🔹 The Israeli occupation deliberately displaces oncology patients from treatment places for the second time, as the patients and crews were forced to evacuate the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital for the first time under direct bombardment. They were transferred to Dar Al-Salam Hospital in Khan Yunis, which the occupation forces arrived at, endangering the lives of the patients and forcing them to leave it, and now they are here. Without any place, which will expose them to the risk of death. We lost dozens of patients after the first and second displacement of oncology patients as a result of their failure to receive treatment and health care. The Israeli occupation arrested three paramedics and seized the ambulances bearing the following numbers: 30-606-50 32-881-50 32-812-50 We warn against the occupation's attempt to use ambulances in its military operations in the Gaza Strip, and we affirm that the use of ambulances for hostilities is contrary to international humanitarian law, but the occupation's criminality has crossed all lines. 🔹 The Israeli occupation is still arresting 36 health personnel, led by Dr. Muhammad Abu Salamiya, Director General of Al-Shifa Medical Complex, in inhumane conditions. 🔹 The Israeli occupation deliberately targeted 132 health institutions and put 22 hospitals and 46 health centers out of service. The Israeli aggression against the health system led to the death of 295 health personnel and the injury of hundreds of them. 🔹 On the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which falls on December 10, we call on the free world to stop the aggression and genocide to which our people are subjected, in order to win for humanity. We also call on health institutions around the world to hold activities (Solidarity Week with the Health Sector) to denounce the crimes of the Israeli occupation and its ongoing war. Against hospitals, ambulances and health teams 🔹We call on medical teams around the world to reach the Gaza Strip to rescue the wounded, especially orthopedics. 🔹 We affirm that the mechanism used to evacuate the wounded is still restricted and sterile and contributes to the killing of hundreds of wounded. We demand that an effective mechanism be found for treatment abroad to preserve the lives of the wounded. 🔹We appeal to health personnel, retirees, graduates, and students from all health specialties to join work immediately in the northern hospitals, Nasser hospital, and the European Hospital in Khan Yunis. We reiterate our call to health work partners to establish medical points and mobile clinics to care for the displaced in the western regions of Khan Yunis and Rafah. We call on international institutions to quickly provide blood virus testing materials to ensure the safety of blood units and the safety of transporting them to the wounded and sick. We demand the provision of a safe humanitarian corridor for large quantities of medical aid and fuel to enter and reach all hospitals in the Gaza Strip. 🔹We call on all institutions to work immediately to provide the medication and fuel needs to operate the Al-Shifa Medical Complex, which represents the only hope for the needs of the wounded and sick in northern Gaza.

Please don’t stop talking about the people of Gaza. Keep posting, talking, having conversations, educating, protesting, lobbying to get us a ceasefire. We are going through the most difficult period in our lifetime. Things on the ground are too hard to describe. Ceasefire now.

I've been to the spot where they were standing. Our photographers used to shoot from there. It would have been quite clear that they were journalists. An Israeli strike in south Lebanon killed two journalists reporting for the Beirut-based Al-Mayadeen TV tinyurl.com/yas7dp5a
