“This is one of the largest funerals in the history of the Palestinian cause. Today, 112 martyrs will be be buried in the soil of Gaza. Talk about us. Raise your voices. Don’t let these scenes pass unnoticed on your phones.”
- A Palestinian at the funeral
The footage shows the remains of 112 members of the Abu Sharia family, killed in an Israeli strike on Gaza City. Recovered over the past two days, they will be buried tomorrow. Nearly 200 relatives remain beneath the rubble, or their bodies were obliterated by the explosions.
There is a serious point here: Players playing the biggest game of their lives having to deal with this delay just so someone can sing a song is reprehensible.
@danielstorey85 funny for all the English media’s outrage, no one asked Tuchel the question of why the likes of Saka and Rashford weren’t brought on against Argentina as a counterattacking threat even while going to a defensive back five.
@rajsinghchohan@pythaginboots was the question of why he didn't do this even raised in today's press conference? Surely that'd be the main question to ask plus possibly why he didn't pick the sort of players who could control the ball into the squad
I genuinely don't care about goyball or the jew cup but I wanted people in Gaza to be happy (as well as my poor Egyptian people too).
Israel assassinated a manager of the Egyptian humanitarian committee in Gaza today. This is an important thing that everyone should speak about.
Ahead of today's game, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan appealed to the world to "let the Palestinian people live." Israel responds by killing the head of public relations for the Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza:
⚠️The Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza had been organizing public screenings of World Cup matches for displaced families across the Strip. About an hour before today’s Egypt-Argentina match, Israel killed the committee’s public relations director in a strike on his vehicle. Two others, including a child, were also killed.
