A year has passed since the detention of my father,
In this white coat, he walked alone amidst death, destruction, and in front of tanks—not because he was fearless, but because his oath and his humanity were greater than any fear. He refused to abandon the children and the wounded at Hospital , and for that, he was detained.

A full year of injustice has passed. Today, we ask for nothing but his freedom. Please share his story to keep his voice alive.

genuinely one of the most evil people to exist in modern history, i cannot stress this enough. he got zero punishment for his actions. caused incalculable harm to entire regions. millions killed, tens of millions displaced and he got to pass away quietly surrounded by family.
Everyone in this photo taken in El Fasher was lined up and shot dead within minutes by UAE-backed RSF militants.
Go to https://t.co/2UUTsWqOQB to tell the world what’s happening in El Fasher and how the UAE is funding the massacre. Make #Sudan the only agenda in parliaments around the world.
“It is incredible — and emblematic of the Democrats’ total aesthetic and intellectual driftlessness — that someone who writes in such feel-good, thought-repelling clichés was hired to communicate with the nation from its highest podium.” https://t.co/teA7jcGma1
I'm still struggling to wrap my head around the fact that the people of Gaza get shot at for trying to fish in their own waters, which the IOF actually has no legal right to be in. Can we all just seriously take this in
One key lesson from the Global Sumud Flotilla experiment so far is that Israel doesn't have the ability to quickly apprehend a large number of aid ships.
