Israel killed every single paramedic in this photo today in South Lebanon.
12 paramedics slaughtered in one Israeli strike.
Israel DELIBERATELY targeted their medical center.
Killing medics is a war crime.
Killing medics is a crime against humanity.
This is medicide.
⭕️ Sen. Chris Van Hollen credited for key role in release of U.S. teen from Israeli detention
Palestinian-American child Mohammed Ibrahim, 16, was freed today after nine months of Israeli imprisonment without charge. Journalist Jasper Nathaniel, who has been a major advocate for and reported extensively on the teen’s release, says Sen. Chris Van Hollen and his staff “fought hard for this, including behind the scenes.”
Van Hollen has also applied sustained pressure across a series of human-rights cases and foreign-policy issues in the past year:
▪️ He flew to El Salvador in mid-April 2025 after Trump’s DHS illegally deported Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia, intervening directly to gain access and press for his lawful return. Garcia was subsequently brought back to the United States.
▪️ He has co-led legislation to block U.S. arms sales to the UAE over its support for Sudan’s genocidal Rapid Support Forces.
▪️ He publicly pressed for oversight of Trump’s UAE-linked crypto dealings in May 2025, warning of foreign-influence risks and conflicts of interest.
▪️ He was also among the only senators sharply critical of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation scheme (that led to mass killings of Palestinians) and the organization’s lack of transparency — part of the sustained scrutiny the organization faced before its recent shutdown.
▪️ During a summer delegation trip to Israel, the West Bank, Jordan and Egypt, Van Hollen urged action to curb settler violence, expand humanitarian access to Gaza, and enforce U.S. human-rights conditions tied to security assistance to Israel.
@Skerkwagga1938@hoddles10@BellaWallerstei@ParanoidPol Same folks who became leadership & IDF were actual terrorists.
