Horrific scenes are a reality in Al Aqsa hospital, Gaza, with children gravely injured and a severe lack of medical supplies.

UNICEF Spokesperson @1james_elder, who is back in Gaza, reports from the ground.

Ceasefire NOW.

If this were a film, we would have wept in the theatre. But now… we scroll down. 💔💔💔
We’ve lost our humanity.

"Let's be clear.

The creeping annexation of the West Bank is illegal. It must stop.

The wholescale destruction of Gaza is intolerable. It must stop.

Unilateral actions that would forever undermine the two-State solution are unacceptable.
They must stop." - @antonioguterres

🚨 GAZA | UN: “Children are dying before our eyes.”

@UN warns of “catastrophic hunger” as over 2 million people in #Gaza face severe food insecurity.
80% of reported starvation deaths are children.

Let’s not forget about this nightmare and all the crimes against humanity taking place in Gaza.

@ChrisCuomo @ChrisCuomo the most important word in your statement is “if”. Making life and death decisions based on “if” statements and other assumptions is lazy and dangerous.

.@UNHumanRights:

"Palestinians have been presented the grimmest of choices: die from starvation or risk being killed while trying to access the meagre food that is being made available through Israel’s militarized humanitarian assistance mechanism."

[United Nations Geneva @UNGeneva]

#Gaza: @antonioguterres has called for an immediate and independent investigation into the killing & injury of Palestinians seeking food aid on Sunday.

“It is unacceptable that Palestinians are risking their lives for food.”

Fantastic thoughts provided by @mehdirhasan at @TheCityClub today. https://t.co/HKik7Eblsk

[The Associated Press @AP]

BREAKING: An Israeli airstrike on a school-turned-shelter has killed at least 25 Palestinians, mostly women and children, Gaza's Health Ministry said. The school was hit three times while people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, they added. https://t.co/ggqoRhzDOy

[Andrew Bennett @andrewgbennett1]

Folks, I’d recommend taking three minutes to watch this. @mehdirhasan I look forward to hearing your thoughts at @TheCityClub next week.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

"Apologists for Israel might want to reject the charge of genocide [and] suggest its hyperbole or even antisemitic, but the actual experts on genocide know a genocide when they see one - and they see one in Gaza."

My receipts on all the experts who say Gaza *is* a genocide:

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

For nearly 80 days, Israel blocked the entry of life-saving international aid into Gaza.

The entire population is facing the risk of famine.

Families are being starved and denied the very basics.

All with the world watching in real time.

[Tom Fletcher @UNReliefChief]

So, for those killed and those whose voices are silenced: what more evidence do you need?

Will you act now – decisively – to prevent genocide in Gaza and to ensure respect for international humanitarian law?

This Council must prevail. Demand this ends.

[United Nations Geneva @UNGeneva]

Independent human rights experts voice grave concern after @POTUS signed an executive action authorising sanctions on @IntlCrimCourt, its personnel and individuals or entities who cooperate with it.

"The order is an attack on global rule of law".

"The International Criminal Court is the legacy of the Nuremberg Trials, to never allow war crimes and crimes against humanity go unpunished. The ICC role is more crucial than ever."

@IntlCrimCourt

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Van Hollen: "He just said that it will be US policy to forcibly displace 2 million Palestinians from the Gaza Strip. That is ethnic cleansing by another name. He said the US would then own the Gaza Strip and we would develop it and other countries would take these Palestinians."

[Andrew Bennett @andrewgbennett1]

@alithearchitect @CityofCleveland Congratulations!!

[Andrew Bennett @andrewgbennett1]

@USUN Empty words.

[Human Rights Watch @hrw]

Israeli authorities are responsible for crimes against humanity in Gaza.

New HRW report examines how Israeli authorities’ conduct has led to the displacement of over 90% of Gaza's population and widespread destruction.

.@UN Independent Commission of Inquiry says in a new policy paper that the United Nations and Member States are obligated under international law to end #Israel’s unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.
