Israel is deliberately starving Palestinian children to death. It cannot be sugar-coated. It is a fact, this engineered famine, and it’s abhorrent. #Genocide #Gaza

“Just outside Gaza, tons of food, clean water, medical supplies, shelter items & fuel sit untouched with humanitarian organisations blocked from accessing or delivering them," write 109 aid agencies today, including Doctors Without Borders, Oxfam and Amnesty.

It makes me sick to my stomach to see Israel’s cruelty and brutality in Gaza. I am heartbroken seeing thousands of starving children, demolished schools and hospitals, blocked humanitarian aid and displaced families. Our collective humanity calls for global and immediate action. I call on every world leader to put maximum pressure on the Israeli government to end this genocide and protect civilians. If you can, please join me in supporting humanitarian organizations like @AneraOrg,@INARAOrg, @thePCRF, @KinderUSA, and @UNRWAUSA whose heroic workers are putting everything on the line to save lives. independent.co.uk/news/world/mid…

Had a great day at the Psychiatry of Intellectual Disability Spring Conference, very interesting, thought-provoking and inspiring presentations and discussions, and always lovely to (re-)connect with colleagues. Thank you Sam Tromans and the team!

Please don’t look away from Northern Gaza. Hearing absolutely terrifying reports from families here in the UK about what’s happening there. They’ve nowhere to go.

Oh wow. Horrendous
