Read the full, nightmarish thread:
Last week, 15 rescuers coordinated with the Israeli army to retrieve people wounded in an Israeli attack on Rafah. Soon all contact was lost with them. The rescuers were found today buried in the ground beneath their crushed rescue vehicles.
Yesterday, a woman came to the clinic, thirty-seven years old, though the lines on her forehead told a much older story. Her voice, when she spoke, was like wind through broken glass. She has idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, diagnosed four years ago, though she didnāt say that, only, āI canāt breathe at night.ā And I understood. I placed the stethoscope on her back, and the sound -those dry, cruel crackles- rose like a death rattle from beneath her ribs. Bilateral basal crepitations. Her lungs are no longer organs of breath, but prisons of scar. Her oxygen saturation: 82% on room air. She coughs, always, yet nothing comes up, only fatigue. Only suffering.
I gave her N-acetylcysteine, knowing itās a weak offering. Bronchodilators- salbutamol, ipratropium- like water handed to a drowning man. No anti-fibrotics here. No pirfenidone, no nintedanib. No CT scanner to measure the damage, no pulmonologist to confirm what I already feel in my bones: her lungs are dying, layer by layer, like pages burning in a book no one gets to finish.
She burns plastic to cook. Thereās no gas, no electricity. So she gathers polyethylene bags, broken sandals, PVC pipe fragments, and sets them aflame. The smoke enters her alveoli and inscribes her death sentence line by line. I told her, āYou have to stop inhaling the fumes.ā She laughed. āThen I will die of hunger instead.ā And I hated her for a moment, for the clarity of that response, for naming what Iāve tried not to accept.
What is a doctor, in a place like this? I know the pathophysiology. Every biochemical mechanism by which her lungs are strangling her. But I cannot save her. The Hippocratic oath feels like a farce here. What do I say? āDie cleanerā? āChoke slowerā?
I returned to my bench and stared at the bare clinic wall. Outside, children play in rubble, laughing, coughing. The air smells of melted wires. And I, I who studied anatomy and pharmacology and protocols, sat with my head in my hands and asked God if this was medicine, or penance. There is no answer. Only silence. Only the slow, steady suffocation of a woman born into smoke.
#GazaGenocideā
this is terrifying. she was detained for writing an op ed about BDS. an op ed. students are being kidnapped over this. this started at columbia and it will keep happening if we donāt stop it.
This is Hossamās team, and we are sharing his final message :
āIf youāre reading this, it means I have been killedāmost likely targetedāby the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years oldāa college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tentsāanywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my peopleās side.
By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at restāsomething I havenāt known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.
I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our storiesāuntil Palestine is free.ā
ā For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.
The White House confirms that Israel 'consulted' the U.S. before its mass bombardment of Gaza.
The mass bombardment targeted displaced families' tents and residential areas across Gaza. At least 59 were killed and dozens wounded, most of whom are children.
Why is Israel firing at Lebanese civilians returning to their towns?
Itās not about Hezbollah, itās about emptying the land of its rightful inhabitants.
Israelās goal was to create a buffer zone inside Lebanon, which is why it decimated these border villages in the first place. The return of displaced civilians undermines that objective.
The people of south Lebanon have always resisted Israelās aggression, just as any people would resist a foreign power seeking to subjugate them. Their mere presence at the border challenges Israelās dominance because they refuse to submit.
Thatās why Israel wants this land emptied, and why some even aspire to settle it with Israeli Jews.
Death marches by Nazi āIsraeliā soldiers of Palestinian doctors, nurses and staff of a hospital for the crime of caring for patients wounded by US weapons
These babies wonāt be included in Gazaās official death toll, proving once again how 45,000 is a severe undercount. Yet theyāre dead because Israel displaced them, destroyed Gazaās healthcare infrastructure, and insists on punishing millions with no end in sight. Merry Christmas.
