Hāhona Ormsby, a New Zealand citizen and Gaza flotilla activist, said an Israeli soldier detaining him told him: “I’m a crazy MF. I’m going to hurt you every minute you’re with me.”
Over roughly two hours, he said the soldier largely kept that promise: punching him repeatedly, knocking him unconscious, and running his head into a wall during a strip search.
Ormsby said the soldier approached him naked with a taser, stating he would taser his genitals. A second man, not in uniform, intervened, before the soldier struck him in the genitals instead.
Ormsby said he was urinating blood that night. He also described having his cable-tied hands placed over a chair while the soldier punched him in the stomach and kneed him in the back, aggravating a prior spinal fusion injury.

Jewish-American orthopedic surgeon Mark Perlmutter, who worked in Gaza, said Israeli soldiers took two Palestinian children, tied their hands behind their backs, and buried them alive at Nasser Hospital — their cries muffled by the dirt poured over them.
A Palestinian man, nervous and excited to become a father, left Rafidia Hospital in Nablus for a quick stop at the local supermarket while his wife was getting ready to give birth to their child.
The Israeli occupation raided the area, and shot him in the head.
He was pronounced dead in the same hospital his son was born in.
Today, Israel killed a pregnant mother carrying twins alongside her two children, Hamza and Naya, in artillery shelling that struck a home in northern Gaza.
At least four children are among the 14 people killed across Gaza since Friday morning.

UNICEF is outraged by the killing of two drivers of trucks contracted by UNICEF to provide clean water to families in the Gaza Strip.
The victims were killed by Israeli fire in an incident that took place early this morning at the Mansoura water filling point in northern Gaza. UNICEF extends our condolences to the families of the men killed.

I understand it can be hard for readers halfway around the world to absorb headlines like this over & over. Fatigue for stories of faraway grief is natural.
But every one of these families is shattered, possibly beyond repair. Please do read what my colleagues are documenting.
this is an israeli company based in tel aviv, btw. I get that it's already been launched, but is there a way to get hybe to discontinue it as soon as possible? hybe really needs to stop associating zionists with the boys; bts deserves better than this. @HYBE_MERCH
BREAKING: Israel's Knesset has passed a law to execute Palestinian detainees.
Death by hanging. Mandatory sentencing. No pardon. 90 days to carry out.
It applies through military courts with a 96% conviction rate. It does not apply to Israelis.
The Israeli government is about to pass a law mandating the death penalty, only for Palestinian prisoners. Mass execution by hanging, solely on racial lines. This is apartheid and the next step in the genocide of Palestinians, already systematically tortured in Israeli prisons.
The israeli occupation just brutally murdered our colleagues @ftounifatima and @cheib1970 from Al Mayadeen and Al Manar.
They were assassinated by a drone while in a moving press vehicle.
