The scale of the destruction in Lebanon deserves more attention. More than 800,000 people displaced.

Over half a million people. Barely a headline.

the war crimes committed here are unreal. bombing the civilian energy facilities and releasing all these carcinogens onto 10 million people. just untold health impacts on its populace for decade to come. fuck everyone who brought the iran war to reality.

The massacre of the girls elementary school pupils (ages 8 to12) in Iran, now stands at one hundred and eighty five. Any person attempting to justify this unprovoked obscenity is a psychopath.

🚨 The Iranian Red Crescent reports 201 Iranians killed and 747 injured. Iranian media says at least 86 of the dead were at a girls’ elementary school struck by United States and Israel. ▪️ The unprovoked combined US-Israeli assault has targeted government buildings, senior political leaders, the Supreme Leader’s residence, military leaders, military infrastructure, air defenses, and nuclear-related facilities across 24 different provinces. ▪️ Iran has fired missiles and drones at U.S. military bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and the UAE, and launched projectiles that struck Israel. ▪️ Iraq, Jordan, and the UAE have partially or fully closed their airspace. Explosions reported in Bahrain, Kuwait, Dubai, and Doha.

Rafah is gone. A city with over 3,500 years of history. The city my grandmother lived in 80 years ago. Bulldozed. Erased in the blink of an eye. I will never forgive the world.

BREAKING: A whistleblower says women at an ICE detention center were forced to wear diapers, denied basic sanitation, and packed onto floors “like goats in a cage.” People lying in urine and feces. No menstrual supplies. Boxes filled with used diapers. He reported it — and was fired. This happened in Baltimore.

Today Israel bombed a school turned shelter in Gaza as a wedding was being held. An IOF tank fired on the building with 6 people murdered and dozens injured. Israeli forces then prevented ambulance and civil defence crews from reaching the injured, children amongst them. There is no ceasefire. There is no peace. Just brutal colonial oppression. FREE PALESTINE TAKE ACTION

Israel is bombing tents again with F35 jets. They commit genocide with impunity. There was no ceasefire, they broke it every single day. They must be held to account. Speak up. Take action. Free Palestine 🇵🇸

For no reason.

where is the ceasefire?

At some point of Israel’s starvation of Gaza, hunger stopped being just physical, and started to erode the mind. You would see people wandering aimlessly, not even asking for food anymore. Children stopped playing. Conversations became quieter, slower. People forgot certain tastes. The memory of sweetness faded. Cravings for anything sweet became so intense that mothers began sharing stories, and sometimes recordings, of their children begging for larger doses of liquid medicine, simply because it tasted slightly sweet. After months of deprivation, they just wanted to experience the taste of sugar again. Some residents, thinking outside the box, started selling ice cream made from children’s liquid antibiotics, since it contained sugar and a bit of flavour. Everyone knew what it was made of, and that it could be harmful. But people still bought it - including me - because it was the only sweet thing left in a landscape of tasteless survival food. No one was eating for pleasure anymore; we were eating to stay alive. When people talk about starvation, they often think only of empty stomachs. But starvation is not just a bodily affliction. It eats away at the human spirit. It robs people of memory, emotion and clarity. Days pass in a fog, filled with survival tasks: fetching water, searching for something to eat, waiting in endless lines, watching others faint beside you. Some children became unrecognisable; their limbs thin and movements weak, their faces pale and expressionless. Parents, especially mothers, carry unbearable guilt - not just for failing to feed their children, but for the mere act of bringing them into this world, and for beginning to lose themselves, forgetting how to provide comfort. But as we awoke this week to find crates of sugar, dates and cheese in our local markets, Gaza sounded different. The laughter of taxi drivers - known for their grumpy complaining in times of crisis - rang through the streets. A shift in the city’s mood was almost visible. People described it as a feast after prolonged fasting. “It feels like Eid,” one Palestinian journalist wrote on social media. “We had tea with sugar and cheese manakeesh.” Others shared photos and stories of drinking tea with sugar for the first time in months. The prices remain painfully high, because the amount of goods allowed in is still a fraction of what people need. Regardless, the mere sight of food and the scent of sugar in the markets - the possibility of choice, however limited - was enough to stir something long buried.  It was not normality. But it was enough to remind us that we are still human, after nearly two years of genocide and a siege that Israel said it was imposing on “human animals”. On my way to work on Thursday morning, street vendors were selling pressed dates by the piece. I bought one and held it in my hand until I reached my office building.  As I climbed the stairs, internally grumbling about having to ascend two more flights after my long walk in the scorching sun, I popped the date into my mouth - and immediately, the sugar hit.  I stopped in the middle of the stairs, closed my eyes, and sighed in relief for the first time in months: “Where have you been all these months, sweet taste? Oh, I’m willing to forget everything that has happened. I’m willing to climb the two floors. I think I can handle the current situation a bit longer now.” Apparently, dopamine does its job faster when it has been absent for too long. I finished the date, and a few moments later, came back to my senses after being briefly “sugar drunk”. Now I understand. This is what they are fighting us with: dopamine.  This is the energy they are rapidly draining from the bodies of an entire population. You cannot push a people determined to resist your attempts at forced expulsion unless you first strip them of life, hope and energy. Full article: middleeasteye.net/opinion/gaza-g…
