Rally Pro Palestine 🇵🇸London Why do you support Palestine? “Because I’m a human being” "I can’t sit back, and watch a genocide.” Hostages ? "They 're hostages" , 2 mill people hostages.

“This Eid, we break our fast not with feasts, but with grief.” Abdullah al-Yazouri, a child in occupied Gaza, writes to US leaders: “We are the children of Gaza. We are not threats. We are not statistics. As long as we dream, Palestine lives.”

Today, the World Food Programme announced that the last remaining bakeries in southern Gaza have shut their doors. By tomorrow, there will be no bread in Gaza City. No bread in the north. No bread at all. The word “famine” no longer belongs to tomorrow. It is here. It is now. It has arrived, unannounced, without trumpet or banner, just silence, and the slow death of children. For seventeen months, Gaza has been buried beneath rubble and smoke. There are no wages. No machines. No cement. No nails. No shops. No streets. The war did not only destroy buildings, it destroyed the act of living. Entire families, once held together by labor and love, have lived only on aid. And even that was severed two months ago, like the cutting of a final vein. Now there is nothing. No food. No money. No escape. Only hunger, and the dark knowledge that the world sees, and chooses to look away. What name do we give to such cruelty? In an age of satellites and symphonies, of constitutions and courts, of men shaking hands in marble halls, two million souls are being starved with purpose, precision, and patience. Let no one say: we did not know. Let no one pretend: it was inevitable. This is not a famine born of drought or locusts. This is man starving man. This is a war not just against life, but against the very idea of life. And history, though it may take its time, will speak. And it will speak with bitterness. #GazaGenocide‌

It was a heartbreaking day as we bid farewell to eight colleagues from the Palestine Red Crescent ambulance team in the #Gaza Strip. Rest in peace, heroes of humanitarian work. #NotATarget #IHL

New restrictions on Afghan women: women in Herat are no longer allowed to present news on television, citing “provoking men” as reason. This decision is yet another step in their systematic oppression of women & their removal from society. Silencing women means silencing justice.

Breaking news from Gaza today—three hospitals are running out of fuel. This situation is threatening the lives of hundreds of patients, including newborns, who depend on electricity to stay alive. doctorswithoutborders.org/latest/gaza-hu…

🔴 Dans les prochaines heures, les générateurs risquent de cesser de fonctionner dans tous les hôpitaux du sud de #Gaza. La vie de centaine de patients est en danger. Le #DIH doit être respecté. Les structures de santé ne sont pas des cibles. #CeaseFireNOW

1208 days since since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. 748 since the Taliban banned women from going to university. Afghanistan remains the only country in the world to have such a ban on girls’ education. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn

Just now, I was talking to my family, and I asked them, "What would you do if the war ended?" My little boy, Imad💔, only 4 years old, shouted enthusiastically: "I'll go to school to play with the kids and learn!" I laughed and said to him, "But, my love, the school is destroyed. How will you go?" He replied with such innocence, "Dad, if the war ends, they’ll build a new school. I'll go there, learn, and become a doctor to treat the little kids who got injured in the war." Can you imagine such a response from my little child at this age? I swear to you, our children love peace, safety, learning, and play—they are just like your children 💔.

Never in my life will I be able to understand why the world has allowed 77 years of this

414 full classrooms of school-aged children, more than 11,000, have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza since October 2023. As children go back to school this week a Save the Children volunteer went to Westminster to take a stand against the war on children in Gaza.

1207 days since since the Taliban banned teenage girls from school. 747 since the Taliban banned women from going to university. In just over three years, Afghan women have been banned from nearly every aspect of public life. #LetAfghanGirlsLearn #FreeAfghanWomen

At least seven newborns died of hypothermia in #Gaza in December, and more children are in danger. Every child deserves a healthy and safe start in life, but the children of Gaza are paying the price of war with their own lives. Ceasefire!

A long Annus Horribilis in a picture. For the last 14 months millions of decent human beings worldwide have battled between incredulity, rage, frustration, sense of impotence, depression and crude pain over the brutalization of millions of Palestinians by the state which the int'l community has allowed to behave like a spoiled brat for decades. ENOUGH. Member states must act now and stop the genocide. Then the occupation. And finally the apartheid. We must collectively restore respect for legality, our trust in common rules and systems, and our capacity to act as humans.

A new study has found that almost half of children in Gaza wish to die, as a result of the trauma they have been forced to endure. Every single supplier of arms to Israel has blood on its hands — and the world will never forgive them.

We should never forget🇵🇸

It is wild that Israel can kill a Palestinian journalist and her family with zero media attention. 193 journalists killed in Gaza has been normalized by the silence of their colleagues in the West.

Israel killed the last remaining orthopedic surgeon in Northern Gaza today. Dr. Saeed Joudeh was on his way to the hospital when Israel shot him in the head. He was not a combatant. He was a doctor devoted to saving lives.
