James Smith, an emergency doctor who has worked in Gaza, says newborn babies dying of starvation is a ‘deliberate policy’ by Israel.
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. Not bad for a little boy from Crawley, @HazelwickSchool. Follow your dreams; never be told it can’t be done; have a go & be prepared to fail. Thank you to everyone who’s helped me make the impossible possible.
An awful statement from the PM, which ignores our collective responsibility to uphold international law.

This is my friend Rahaf, from Gaza. Meeting her and her wonderful mama changed my life.
Rahafs young brothers and father are still in Gaza.

#trevorphillips: The IDF says armed militants use schools & hospitals as command centres, and although I haven't been in Gaza I've been in similar zones & that's not uncommon.
British surgeon Victoria Rose: "The only people I've ever seen in Gaza.. with weapons are the IDF"
British surgeon Victoria Rose, who's just returned from Gaza: "They're coming through the doors like a conveyor belt... really small children with massive injuries.. bits of their bodies blown off... every day at least half [of my cases] were under the age of 11.. its barbaric"
As Zarah Sultana mentions the govt continuing to arm Israels genocide in Gaza, Labour MP Louise Jones rolls her eyes.

Canadian doctors returned from Gaza and are sharing what they witnessed and lived.
They are demanding action from Mark Carney.
Their testimony is our failure.

Lined up like animals,
only a few are fed.
Some are arrested,
Some are shot at.
New Israel US joint venture.
The worst humanity is capable of from the bastions of Power.
We.
Must.
Stop.
This.

Dr. Alaa and Dr. Hamdi Al-Najjar’s home was targeted, 9 of their 10 children brutally killed, the surviving husband, and one child seriously wounded. Dr. Alaa received her killed children while at work in Nasser Hospital.
Dr. Alaa is a paediatrician.
She’s keeps working.
The ISraeli army targets families, hospitals and health care workers in this murderous genocide.
To everyone who has marched for Gaza—once or a thousand times—THANK YOU.
From London to Sana’a, Cape Town to Melbourne, we walk one street: the long path to justice. Against genocide, racism, apartheid, and those who profit from it. And we are one.
