This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :
“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.
By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.
I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”
— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.

Cailleadh fíor-Ghael, tá an t-ádh orainn go raibh grá aige dár theanga @KNEECAPCEOL
Ar dheis go raibh a anam dílis
🧵Christmas is coming, and tbh I've more fun things to be doing than firefighting all these melters on Twitter. I've posted some aids before, but in addition, I'll add links to websites that show the reality of Irish 'neutrality' during ww2, so here we go https://t.co/zjOVn2txBg
Gearóid Ó Cairealláin, father of Móglái Bap passed away last night.
He was an Irish language revolutionary, community activist, loving father, husband and an inspiration to many.
We are heartbroken. 💔
Tonight's concert at the SSE arena will be the largest Irish language gig in the city's history.
Nothing would have made him prouder.
Tonight is for him.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.

Gearóid Ó Cairealláin, athair le Móglaí Bap, imithe ar shlí na fírinne aréir.
Ba Réabhlóidí teanga, gníomhaí pobail, athair grámhar, fear céile agus ionspioráid do chuid mhór daoine é.
Tá muid croíbhriste. 💔
Anocht ag Ionad SSE, beidh an cheolchoirm is mó Gaeilge riamh i stair na cathrach ann.
Níl rud ar bith eile a chuirfeadh an oiread céanna bróid air ná seo.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
Amnesty International’s new landmark report concludes that Israeli authorities have committed – and still are committing - genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip.
Full report, out now.

Joe Biden armed, funded, enabled, greenlit, and gave political cover to Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. Do not allow this monumental crime to be whitewashed. He has the blood of countless thousands of people on his hands.
The Ramallah Municipality has proudly raised the flags of Ireland, Spain and Norway today, to honor these nation’s recent announcement to recognize the State of Palestine and reaffirming their commitment to the right of self determination and justice.
