1/8 My home town of Birmingham will get a lot of negative publicity over the coming days. The city has some major problems, it is true, but here's a few more positive facts and figures. These often get hidden by boundary or industrial structure issues.

isr@el just ordered the ENTIRE BEIRUT SOUTHERN SUBURBS to evacuate populated with 400,000-500,000 people. they’re trying to repeat the same tactics they did with gaza DONT STOP TALKING ABOUT LEBANON
Ludgate Hill. The Crown. The Electric. Central Methodist Hall. Kingsway Cinema. Royalty Harborne.
Heartbreaking to have so many ideas about how to save these beautiful buildings but no power to do so and no interest from those who do have the power. 📸 via @Bananabelly
World’s attention has shifted to Iran and Venezuela, but it is still winter in Gaza, and people are still living in tents.
Living in this never ending nightmare.
Don’t forget them.
UNICEF is deeply saddened by the preventable, tragic death of Ata Mai, 7, who drowned on 27 December during severe flooding in an improvised camp for internally displaced people in Sudaniyeh, northwest of Gaza City.
He is the most recent child in Gaza to die due to the extreme winter conditions and lack of safe shelters. At least five other children have lost their lives in December after being exposed to such harsh conditions.

Having murdered EVERY journalist in Gaza, and many of their families.
Having banned ANY international journalist from entering.
Having destroyed almost every structure in Gaza and even laughing as they blew up water treatment facilities and cancer wards.
Israel is now BANNING all aid agencies from operating there from tomorrow.
The last thread of charitable aid removed.
An evil beyond humanity.
