Today in Umm al-Khair, Majd got caught in settlers’ barbed wire while trying to retrieve a soccer ball that had rolled onto land they recently seized. Make sure to watch the videos in the quote-tweet as a reminder of what a child's life is supposed to look like.

The ensuing sugar high. In the middle one you get a peek of me as the candy kingpin. Last one, he was off completely on his own just going to town.

BREAKING: The Lancet has just published this article "conservatively" estimating that the death toll in the Gaza genocide could be 186,000 people or more. That's 8% of the population, obliterated. These are apocalyptic figures.

The director of al Shifa hospital in Gaza told al Jazeera:
—22 ICU patients died overnight. He said the hospital “lost all those who were in the intensive care unit.”
—There are 7,000 people still in the hospital.
—Dead bodies are piling up, morgue is full and no refrigerator trucks.
—Disputed claim that Israel provided incubators and said the hospital already has incubators but needs fuel for generators to power them.
—Hospital staff appealed to Israeli forces to leave the hospital and were denied. He said the hospital has become a “big prison.”

Israel’s 2nd #Nakba strategy:
Cabinet confirms that up to 1,700,000 Gazans-out of a total population of 2.2million-are NO longer able to live in their own homes: they've been expelled/ethnically cleansed, civilian infrastructures have been wiped out.

.@WHO has managed to get in touch with health professionals at the Al-Shifa hospital in #Gaza.
The situation is dire and perilous.
It's been 3 days without electricity, without water and with very poor internet which has severely impacted our ability to provide essential care.
The constant gunfire and bombings in the area have exacerbated the already critical circumstances.
Tragically, the number of patient fatalities has increased significantly.
Regrettably, the hospital is not functioning as a hospital anymore.
The world cannot stand silent while hospitals, which should be safe havens, are transformed into scenes of death, devastation, and despair.
Ceasefire. NOW.
