This little girl… what does she wish for? She says: “I wish I could travel, get treatment, and be like other children… I wish my skin would heal.”
I ask God to heal her.
Don’t forget the children of Gaza.
This is all that remains of the body of a young man... He was trying to survive with a bag of flour to feed his family, but Israel insisted on leaving behind nothing of him but these bones. Beside those bones, this ID card was found, no one knows, it might be his, or it might not.
Instead of these young men going to their jobs, persevering, succeeding, and excelling in their fields, their bones lie scattered on the roads. Fate may bring us together to find them, or time may bury them away forever.
On this day a year ago, our beloved, our best, and our voice and eyes was assassinated in an Israeli airstrike on the press tent outside Al-Shifa Hospital that not only killed him but murdered four others, including his closest Mohammed Qreqia’
Gaza has since lost its voice.💔
Israel is trapped in a cycle it created. Occupation fuels resistance, and resistance is used to justify more occupation.
Near Nablus, that cycle turned deadly yet again: five Palestinians killed as four new outposts were erected.
Al Jazeera's Leila Warah reports.
Rael Al-Amassi is a highly respected nurse in Gaza.
Israel murdered him. He's no longer with us.
His last post on Twitter: "The genocide is ceaseless. The bloodshed hasn't stopped. There's no safe place from cold-blooded murder.💔😭"
🇵🇰 Imran Khan's sister, Aleema, is again pleading for Pakistan's authorities to transfer him to a hospital as serious concerns about his health grow:
"Get Imran treated. We have been demanding this since February: that Imran has the right to be treated.
I appeal to you. Know our pain first.
When your mother or your brother is sick in your house, tell me what your first priority would be."
His family, doctors, and lawyers haven’t been allowed to see him for seven months, which is insane

A hot, tasty meal matters. But so does the dignity with which it is given. We bring meals directly to people in their tents, taking into account the realities of the families we serve. https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX
For many people, simply getting up and standing in line at a community kitchen is not easy - or even possible.
Dr. Sakhr explains what that reality looks like for people with disabilities in Gaza. He understands it personally. His own mobility is limited, and after earning his PhD in the United States, he helped enact legislation in Palestine advancing disability rights.
Everyone in Gaza is suffering, but some people face additional barriers to accessing even the most basic necessities. People with disabilities, the injured, the elderly, and those with limited mobility cannot be an afterthought in humanitarian aid.
On July 28, The Sameer Project delivered 505 chicken and rice meals directly to families in Al-Amin (Mohammed) Camp. The distribution cost $1,282 including 11% banking fees.
This is what dignified aid looks like: meeting people where they are and making sure the most vulnerable are not left behind.
Help us continue bringing food directly to the families who need it most. If our project shuts down these families will have no where else to turn. Donate to the Food and Water Campaign to help.

ہنگامی صورتحال 🚨
جیسے اسداللہ خان والی خبر فوج کی مرضی سے باہر نکلی تھی اسی طرح صدیق جان بھی فوج کی مرضی سے خبر دے رہا ہے کہ عمران خان کا بلڈ پریشر اتنا بڑھ گیا کہ ہسپتال لانا پڑا ورنہ یہ وہی صدیق جان ہے جس نے چھبیس نومبر کے بعد اپنا یوٹیوب ہی بند کردیا تھا کہ سختی بہت ہے۔
عمران خان کی آنکھ کا مسئلہ بنا خبر باہر آئی کارکنان نے ردعمل دیا اٹک و خوشحال گڑھ پل بند کردیا ۔ سہیل آفریدی اور تحریک انصاف کے رہنما پختونخواہ ہاوس خودساختہ محصور ہوگئے۔ اب بلڈ پریشر کے سبب ہسپتال جانے کی خبر آئی ہے۔ نا تو کارکنان پل بند کریں گے نا سہیل آفریدی کے محصور ہونے کی نوبت آئے گی۔ اگلی خبر کا کنفرم نہیں اس سے اگلی کنفرم خدانخواستہ والی آئے گی۔ اب آپ پیٹرن دیکھیں۔
ردعمل ایسے ہی کنٹرول کیا جاتا ہے۔ پانی ایسے ہی ٹیسٹ کیا جاتا ہے۔ جیسے عمر ایوب کو استعمال کرکے فوج نے آٹھ فروری کو کسی بھی قسم کے احتجاج کا رستہ بند کیا۔ پھر ایک لانگ مارچ ملتوی کروا کر ٹیمپو توڑا ، پھر دوسرے کی دفعہ علی امین سے بارہ ضلعے پار کروائے۔ تیسری دفعہ تک کمزور سا لانگ مارچ تشدد اور قتل عام سے منتشر کردیا۔ پیٹرن دیکھیں۔ ایک جیسا پیٹرن۔
مزید مثال سنیں۔ عمران خان کو پہلی مرتبہ دو ہفتے کے لیے قید تنہائی میں ڈالا۔ پھر کچھ وقت کے بعد مہینے بھر کے لیے۔ پھر اسکے بعد چھ مہینے ہوگئے عمران خان کی متعلق کوئی بھی خبر باہر آئے ہوئے۔ آٹھ مہینے ہوگئے بہن سے ملاقات کیے ہوئے۔ یہی پیٹرن ہے۔ ہر جگہ ایک ہی پیٹرن۔
اب صدیق جان کی خبر درست ہے یا غلط اس کا فیصلہ عمران خان کی اپنی بہنوں سے ملاقات کے بعد ہوگا۔ اگر تحریک انصاف کی قیادت اور پختونخواہ حکومت میں رتی برابر بھی غیرت موجود ہے تو کچھ نا کچھ ردعمل دے دیں۔ عمران خان کی قید تنہائی ختم کروا لیں اسے ہسپتال منتقل کروا لیں ورنہ اگلی خبر کا تو علم نہیں اس سے اگلی نہایت خطرناک ہوگی۔
نوٹ ؛ یہ کوئی مخصوص ذہن سازی نہیں ہے یہ خطرے کی نشاندہی ہے۔
A provider for seven family members walks carefully on his new prosthetic leg, carrying heavy jerrycans of water back to his shelter because his family depends on him. https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX
He tells us The Sameer Project is the only organization bringing this support to his area near the dangerous yellow-line, these communities that border the buffer zone to the east.
So what happens if donations fall so low that our trucks have to stop?
Who brings his family water tomorrow? Who comes after us?
He has already lost a limb. He is still carrying water to keep seven people alive. And now dwindling donations threaten even this basic lifeline.
How can the world watch this happening and decide there is nothing left to do? Well, there is something you can do. Give now. Help us keep reaching the families who have no one else coming. Share our campaign. Find ways to stand by Gaza.

My family consists of 22 people, 10 of whom are children, and I am the sole provider for all of them. We are going through an extraordinarily difficult crisis and harsh conditions, and I am no longer able to support them on my own.
I sincerely hope you can help us overcome this ordeal amidst these dire circumstances.
I beg you a million times: please donate and share this campaign.

💢 Israeli settlers violently attacked Palestinians and solidarity activists in Taybeh, east of Ramallah, on Friday, according to Quds News. Footage shows one settler repeatedly punching a female activist as she tries to protect herself.
“We will die of thirst.” Says this elderly man in Northern Gaza, where fresh water is increasingly difficult to find and water trucks do not consistently reach families who desperately need them. https://t.co/6l9JFjWInX
When The Sameer Project’s water trucks arrive, we are not delivering something optional. We are delivering survival.
That is an immense responsibility to carry - but it is also an extraordinary opportunity for all of us to make an immediate impact. Your donation can become water reaching families who are waiting for it, often the same day.
The genocide is ongoing. The need has not disappeared. But donations are falling, and without funding, our trucks cannot move.
Please help us keep supplying water for Gaza. Donate to the Food and Water Campaign.

Chronic diseases - high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, asthma - these conditions require treatment every single day. https://t.co/LLwKJegeB1
Do we expect elderly patients with hypertension or someone living with heart disease to walk miles through the heat, the rubble streets in Gaza, just to reach a hospital where the medication they need may not even be available?
The Sameer Project brings healthcare to them instead.
The mobile Medical Days for our Chronic Disease Campaign travel directly to displacement camps, providing consultations and essential medications so patients can continue managing their conditions with consistency, not desperation. This isn't a one-time emergency response. It is sustained care that prevents complications, reduces suffering, and gives people a chance to live with dignity despite impossible circumstances.
On July 14, our team served 68 patients during our chronic disease medical day at Al-Waseem Camp in Central Gaza.
As funding continues to decline, programs like these are at risk. But chronic illness does not pause when donations slow. Our patients still need their medications next month, and the month after that.
Will you help them? Donate to The Sameer Project’s Medical Campaign to assist.

In his 1796 Farewell Address, George Washington warned that a "passionate attachment" to a foreign nation could hijack US policy and drag America into needless wars.
