Please share Noor’s posts—her little girl needs us. (Post by Olive's friend from Gaza)

Reports are coming in that people in Mahshahr cannot breathe due to the chemical pollution caused by the US and Israeli bombardment of the petrochemical factories there.

The child Ahmed al-Helou and about 15 other children were raped by 10 Israeli female soldiers and forced to watch naked female prisoners. All of them were arrested from the American aid center near Rafah in the middle of last year...

Whoever wants to help me with support and sharing, please step forward. My mother has cancer and also suffers from high blood pressure and diabetes. Please leave your mark to help save an elderly woman. chuffed.org/project/yusufg… @ireallyhateyou @oliveegirl

Save the souls of the prisoners. Speak about the prisoners, even if it’s just a word 💔

I’m a family doctor, and I join the call by @drtlaleng in demanding the release of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya who remains in Israeli captivity for over a year. He has been subjected to severe torture. Our medical colleagues have been targeted for doing their jobs - release them all!

Miss you my dear son Abu Baker

Seems like it should be bigger news that Sam Altman is being sued for raping his own sister when she was a child

Israel soldiers sexually abuse minors. Both male & female israeli soldiers participate in torture & sexual violence against Palestinian hostages. Horrifying.

Ahmed Al-Helou and other children were subjected to extreme sexual abuse while detained by Israeli forces after being taken from an aid center near Rafah last year. These traumatic experiences have had severe psychological effects, leaving Ahmed unable to speak properly.

The young Palestinian Odai Ibrahim El-Sayed and his young child Gamal lost their lives due to the relentless Israeli attacks on the tents of the civilians.

I never intended to ask for help again… Just yesterday, my grandmother fell, and thanks to God and your support, we were able to secure the cost of her surgery. I will never forget how you stood by me. But unfortunately, while transferring her to the hospital, I also fell and badly damaged my tooth. Now I can’t drink water or eat without severe pain. I’m trying to endure it, but the pain is unbearable. I urgently need treatment (a cosmetic filling), which costs $500—an amount I cannot afford right now due to very difficult circumstances. Honestly, I wouldn’t ask for help again unless I was truly in pain and unable to continue like this. If you are not able to donate, even sharing this post could help me reach someone who can 🙏 Thank you to everyone who supported me before… and any help now truly means a lot ❤️ chuffed.org/project/165532…

I am heartbroken and outraged. Today we mourn Abolfazl Dahanavi, a 20-year-old Iranian Red Crescent @Iranian_RCS volunteer killed on 4 April in Isfahan Province while carrying out humanitarian activities. Abolfazl is the fourth Iranian Red Crescent volunteer killed in the line of duty since 28 February. Four lives lost in five weeks, all while trying to help others survive. This is unjustifiable. We have mourned before. We have called for protection before. We are calling again with greater urgency and outrage: the killing of humanitarian personnel must stop. My deepest condolences go to Abolfazl’s family, his loved ones, and his colleagues in the Iranian Red Crescent Society. We stand beside them in grief and in solidarity. 👉bit.ly/4cpU8LR

My life has been against me… who will stand by my side for my little daughter? Please leave your mark—your donations could change my life. chuffed.org/project/151544…

Qusra, Nablus | settler lynching Israeli settlers from the Yish Kadosh terror outpost attacked a barracks & set it on fire Locals report that settlers abducted a worker from the place & lynched him. The man was then dumped on the street unconscious & is now in serious condition

The occupation, through its news platforms, claims it will resume delivering aid as before, via distribution points it will control—meaning more death traps. Every time I watch these videos, I remember my leg injury, how I choked, lying on the ground with everyone above me, nearly dying. The occupier is repeating the same scenario.

A new body has been found by civilians in a house that was previously bombed. This body, along with others, keeps the issue of the missing an open wound that never heals.

This was me at ten years old, back when life was beautiful and we lived in peace.💔

A World Where a Mouse Can Eat a Baby’s Face It is difficult to speak of this without shame. Not shame for those who suffer, but for all of us who have allowed the world to reach such a point, where even the smallest and most defenseless life is no longer safe from what crawls in the dust. This is no longer war damage. Something deeper has broken. This is the collapse of public health, and perhaps, in some quiet way, the collapse of our shared humanity. Gaza is now facing an environmental and medical catastrophe, one that advances silently, without sirens, without explosions, yet with a cruelty that feels almost more unbearable because it grows in neglect. Mountains of uncollected waste lie like accusations. Collapsed sewage systems seep into the earth. Stagnant water gathers, unmoving, as if even time itself has grown tired. From this stillness, life emerges, but not the kind that comforts. Rats and insects multiply in numbers never seen before. And now they are no longer hiding. They are attacking people. Families sleep on the rubble of homes that once protected them. The same rubble has become a refuge, but not for them. It shelters rodents, hunger, and decay. Others live in tents so thin that they seem less like homes and more like fragile promises that the wind could break at any moment. And so people endure not only war, but the slow violence of the environment itself. A few days ago, a photo spread of a newborn baby whose face had been partially eaten by rats. It is unbearable to write this. Yesterday, another image appeared. A diabetic woman whose toe had been partially eaten, and she did not even feel it. How did we come to this? How did suffering descend to such a quiet, humiliating form? These are not isolated incidents. They are the beginning of something worse. We are entering the natural breeding season for these pests. They will multiply, as suffering multiplies when left unattended. And the consequences will not stop at wounds: • Increased risk of malaria • Spread of dengue fever • Contamination of food and water • A full-scale public health disaster This is not a small issue. This is not another post. This is a cry, though even cries now seem to fall into silence. Gaza needs immediate, organized civilian intervention. Waste management. Pest control. Sanitation. Not as acts of generosity, but as acts of simple human responsibility. Because what is happening now is not only suffering. It is the slow erosion of the conditions that make human life possible. If this continues, people will not only die from bombs. They will die from what crawls beside them in the night, from what breeds in stagnant water, from what flourishes when the world looks away. And perhaps the most painful question is no longer whether this will get worse. It is how we allowed ourselves to arrive here at all. #WoundedGaza
