Noura bid farewell to her husband & daughter as they left Gaza for Egypt.

It was meant to be a temporary goodbye.

But as the 54-year-old mother returned from the departure station to her tent, an Israeli bullet killed her.

Unbearable.

Gaza screams for us to break the siege.

Newly released footage from Gaza’s Al-Shifa Hospital reveals harrowing scenes from November 2023, when Israeli forces besieged and later stormed the medical complex, trapping patients, healthcare workers and displaced Palestinians inside.

Bodies lay across the hospital grounds as medical services collapsed amid relentless gunfire, severe shortages and mounting casualties. Despite the danger, medical staff struggled to keep their patients alive, refusing to abandon those who could not escape.

Two massive Israeli F16 strikes just rocked Gaza City

هذا الحساب ينتحل صورة الزميلة مها الحسيني، ولا أعرف مصداقيته.

من يجمع تبرعات لإكمال دراسته، أو حتى لإعالة أسرته في غزة، أو للخروج منها، ويكون محتاجا حقا، ينبغي أن يكون شفافا بشأن مكان وجوده ومعلوماته الشخصية ذات الصلة. الواقع في غزة تجاوز اعتبارات الخصوصية المعتادة، والحاجة أصبحت حالة عامة لا تسيء إلى صاحبها.

ما يسيء حقا هو أن يتحول جمع التبرعات إلى مهنة، وأن يستغل البعض معاناة البسطاء في غزة لجمع عشرات الآلاف من الدولارات، وربما أكثر، بتشجيع من جهات وأشخاص يتسببون بضرر كبير لأصحاب الحق، ممن هم أشد حاجة وأكثر أولوية في الحصول على المساعدة.

This account is using a photo of my colleague @MahaGaza, and I cannot verify its credibility.

Anyone raising funds to complete their education, support their family in Gaza, or even evacuate, if genuinely in need, should be transparent about their whereabouts and relevant personal information. The reality in Gaza has gone far beyond ordinary privacy considerations. Hardship is widespread, and there is no shame in being in need.

What is truly shameful is when fundraising becomes a profession, and some exploit the suffering of ordinary people in Gaza to collect tens of thousands of dollars, or even more, encouraged by individuals and organizations whose actions cause serious harm to those who are genuinely entitled to assistance and are most desperately in need.

@mohammedIhysse ممكن تتوقفوا عن نشر الفيديوهات المعالجة بالذكاء الاصطناعي لأنه هادا يضر بكل مادة حقيقية بتطلع من غزة؟
ما عنا نقص في المواد الحقيقية حتى نلجأ لصور ومقاطع مفبركة

What does it mean to feel safe? To have a place to call home?

Some of the simplest words carry the heaviest questions.

🧵Israel continues to deprive Palestinians in #Gaza of safe shelter for the 4th consecutive year. Around 2 million people need shelter aid after #Israel destroyed or damaged most homes in the enclave ⬇️

A massive esplosion just rocked the west of Gaza City

[Euro-Med Monitor @EuroMedHR]

Despite repeated deaths and warnings about the dangers of cold and flooding in #Gaza, the continued denial of protective measures perpetuates the destructive living conditions Israel is imposing on the population

Working on a story about Israeli attacks on schools and universities in Gaza in recent months and came across this photo of the Islamic University after it was bombed twice within five days in July 2006, more than 17 years before October 7th.

[Euro-Med Monitor @EuroMedHR]

All of these journalists are a testament to the fact that the international system allows impunity for crimes against journalists.

At least five police officers and guards have been just killed in an Israeli airtrike on Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip

“When I left, I left because there was nothing left for me to stay for. My life and my studies had come to a complete standstill. I left so I could continue my life, complete my medical studies, and then return to Gaza to dedicate myself to it as a doctor. Do you remember when I called you desperately before leaving and told you that I was leaving to seek a meaningful life?”

“Yes.”

“And what meaning would my life and education have if it’s not for the purpose of serving my people and my country?”

I smiled in response, while Alaa continued:

“That’s why I am determined to return. Because Gaza needs us, its youth. If we don’t rebuild it, who will?”
