Librarians and Archivists with Palestine (@Librarians2Pal) has issued its Report: Israeli Damage to Archives, Libraries, and Museums in Gaza, Oct 2023 to Jan 2024 https://t.co/ScM84al4Cg

[Jehad Abusalim @JehadAbusalim]

The criminal state of Israel also destroyed Qasr al-Basha (the Pasha's Palace), a historical palace located in the Old City of Gaza, which also housed a museum of artifacts from various eras. The palace served as Gaza’s seat of power during the Mamluk and Ottoman periods.

Where are @UNESCO & Aga Kahn Foundation @AKF_EA? This is an inestimable crime against memory, culture, and community. If such orgs won't stand up against the erasure of such intimate and graceful artifacts, at the pinnacle of human expression, then what are they even for?
