The boy is gone, gone. A father breaks down in grief over his eight-year-old son, Jad Suleiman, killed while walking home from school in Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, his small backpack still on his shoulders. Between his tears the father keeps repeating his name, remembering the smallest things about him, how the boy always wanted a piece of namoura, the red sweet, from his uncle. A child who set out for school and never made it home, one more name added to the thousands of children killed in Gaza under Israel's ongoing assault and genocide.

Three-year-old Maryam Qadoum was killed after Israeli forces struck her tent in Gaza City.
There can be no normalisation & interfaith with genocidal baby killers, & those who defend & enable them.
May Allah have mercy on her & destroy her killers. Ameen.
A 6-year-old child was kidnapped by IDF soldiers in Gaza. He was sexually assaulted and some of his vital organs were taken out.
The child was returned to his family like this.
🚨 Horrific: Israel bombed a 4 year old Palestinian girl in her displacement tent in Gaza after destroying her home, while she was filming on her phone ,killing her mother.
"The entire world now respects Pakistan (for mediation b/w US & Iran"
No. Only Trump and his minions 'respect' you for saving America from further humiliation in Iran.
You are USA's puppet, nothing more.
🇵🇸🇮🇱An Israeli soldier ordered a Palestinian youth to continue walking, then used him as a target for long-range shooting practice before killing him.
He wasn’t a threat, just a target they chose.
There are things in this world that should never happen
and yet, they are happening.
This story sounds like fiction.
But this is our life.
Two and a half years ago, when the Israeli army entered Al Shifa Hospital,
they took a number of newborn babies from the maternity ward.
Newborns.
They were separated from their mothers, from the only warmth they had ever known and sent to Egypt.
Without names.
Without families.
Without anyone to claim them.
They disappeared.
For more than a year, there was no news.
No answers.
No certainty about whether they were even alive.
Yesterday, some of them were returned.
And I cannot stop thinking about one moment.
A mother standing there.. trying to describe her child.
Describing the face of a baby she had only known for less than a week.
Trying to recognize her own son through memory alone.
Through fragments.
Through hope.
Through pain.
Then, suddenly.. he is in front of her.
Alive.
She breaks.
A joy so overwhelming it almost looks like grief.
And the child?
He looks at her .. without recognition. Without memory.
Without the instinct that should have guided him back to her arms.
He does not know her !!
And perhaps what is even more devastating
he does not know what a mother is.
What kind of world separates a child from his mother
before he even learns her face?
What kind of war steals not only lives,
but the most basic human bonds?
This is not just loss.
This is something deeper.
Something colder.
Something that tears at the very meaning of being human.
This ..
is what hell looks like.

A Palestinian child was tortured by Israeli settlers and then dragged by a car across sandy slopes, as if they were telling the Muslim world: 'All you did was talk, while we are the strongest.'
Repost this. Please I beg you
Israeli Forces Tortured Child in Front of His Father in Gaza
Israeli forces subjected a one-year-old child to abuse and torture to pressure his father into giving confessions in Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, according to local and family sources.
Osama Abu Nassar, while taking his child to buy supplies a few days ago, he was caught in gunfire near his home and forced by Israeli soldiers to leave his 18-month-old son on the ground and approach the Israeli checkpoint, where he was stripped of his clothes.
According to witnesses, the army then took the child and interrogated the father at the checkpoint. The forces tortured the child in front of his father, including burning his leg with cigarettes, pricking, and inserting a metal nail into his leg, as confirmed by a medical report.
The child, Karim, was released after 10 hours and handed over to his family through the International Red Cross, while the father remains in detention.

#Pakistan granted the USA use of its soil, seaports and airspace to bomb #Afghanistan for 20+ years. I was in #Kabul when US cruise missiles landed. I was there when US planes bombed.
They killed thousands of their own people in KPK at America’s behest. That’s what caused the rise of the #TTP - which committed its own atrocities.
The Pak army and ISI kidnapped, detained, tortured and sold 1000s of innocent people to the Americans for bounty money.
Palestinian #AbuZubaydah was among them.
#AafiaSiddiqui and her children were among them.
I was among them.
They burst into my home in the middle of the night with their #CIA masters and took me at gunpoint, while my wife and young children watched, terrified.
Years passed but the very people they sold out in Afghanistan came back to power stronger, defeating America and its allies through patience and perseverance.
They now rule the country.
Instead of making amends for their past treachery and building relations based on mutual respect, intrinsic corruption and envy couldn’t bare to see Afghanistan building its own future, beginning the road to recovery and prosperity for once.
Boasting to the world about its military, with its arsenal of weapons and nuclear capabilities, Pakistan has only used its military against its own people over the past 30 years.
Meanwhile, #Kashmir remains occupied, its daughters violated and its men imprisoned and butchered by Modi’s BJP #Hindutva forces.
#Gaza, the West Bank and Al Quds are occupied and obliterated while Pakistan’s military join their impotent Arab and Turkish allies in giving lip service or organising protests instead of defending Gaza with their powerful militaries.
Non of their ballistic missiles, long range bombers or fighters threaten the murderous #Zionist state. None of their sophisticated anti-aircraft systems are utilised or sent to protect the #Palestinians.
Instead, in one of the most embarrassing displays of global sycophancy ever seen Pakistani leader Shehbaz Sharif nominated #DonaldTrump for the Nobel Peace Prize, right after the Gaza genocide, knowing the USA arms, trains, finances, excuses and backs Israeli war crimes at every level.
I’ve had the pleasure of visiting Afghanistan many times since the US withdrawal. My work has focused on trying to get prisoners freed from US prisons like #Guantanamo, where people like Afghan Muhammad Rahim remain without charge or trial after 24 years. He too was handed over to the #CIA by Pakistan for a fee. When his young children asked to see their father for the last time, the #ISI agents beat them and kicked them down the stairs.
That was the last time they saw their father. They are now grown men. The scars are indelible.
My investigations have taken me to drug rehabilitation centres in Afghanistan to speak to eyewitnesses fighting addiction resulting from war trauma, neglect and depression. The work done in these centres cannot be overstated. People’s lives have been turned around and the drug addiction epidemic, which grew exponentially during the US occupation, has been eradicated through these hospitals.
Pakistan’s targeting of these places is a war crime.
But Pakistan’s past actions are also war crimes.
Long ago, Pakistan had the potential of being a role model of justice, honour, faith and dignity but it has consistently proved to be the opposite. That dream is dead - for now.
The cancer of corruption, nationalism and lack or principles has overtaken and they it needs reform, replacement and a new beginning.
When that day comes, everything will change forever.
I pray its soon.
When I first visited Afghanistan in 2024, I went to the “Omid” (Hope) drug rehabilitation centre in Kabul, which was bombed by Pakistan last night.
Afghanistan has one of the most successful opium addiction rehabilitation programmes in the world. This is despite 20 years of a brutal US-led NATO occupation that proliferated opium usage domestically and monopolised its global exportation.
I met former addicts who had become Huffadh of the Quran, as well as electricians, tailors, carpenters, bricklayers, and teachers of Pashto, while others were studying English. Many had completely rebuilt their lives. Some had spent just three months there and never wanted to leave, choosing instead to stay on as mentors and volunteers to help others recover.
In the space of just a few years, opium addiction across parts of the country had dropped so significantly that in many towns and cities it had become almost non-existent.
To now see Pakistan bomb the same rehabilitation centre, killing at least 400 civilians, is deeply disturbing.
Those killed were patients, people who had entered that centre with hope. Muslims in the process of turning their lives around, who could have gone on to become Quran teachers, labourers, and contributors to their society.
To carry out such an attack in the concluding nights of Ramadan, at a time when the Muslim world is already in turmoil, is utterly shameful, regardless of any anti-terrorism justification put forward by Pakistan.
Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji‘oon.
I can’t put my feelings into words when I saw these books.
I could imagine these poor souls trying to start their lives over, reading first graders books all while struggling with addiction.
And then they get this to tear their lives and their families all over again!
The Shaheen-III missile truly is a marvel of engineering. Yet it cannot strike the occupiers of Al-Aqsa
Strong leadership with a passion for Jihad — that's what we lack. Not military equipment
Who are we siding with?
Sending ships to secure naval routes from Iran attacks?
During this time of war against Iran; #Pak should have launched Operation Khyber against Israel for liberation of Palestine and defending Irani Nation.

The martyrdom of 4-year-old Julia, who succumbed to wounds she sustained two days ago in an Israeli strike in central Khan Younis while returning from kindergarten. An emotional farewell to a little girl who was supposed to return home, not to her final resting place.
