Gaza Soup Kitchen: Chef Mahmoud, Dedicated to Serving Palestinian Civilians, Assassinated by Israeli Drone
Gaza Soup Kitchen, which coordinates humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza, has issued a statement regarding the tragic death of Chef Mahmoud. This morning, Chef Mahmoud was assassinated by an Israeli drone as he stepped out of his home to begin his daily routine at Kamal Adwan Hospital. Known for his unwavering commitment to serving Palestinian civilians, Mahmoud played a critical role in ensuring the hospital had the supplies it needed.
The statement emphasized that Mahmoud’s assassination was a deliberate attack on his efforts to alleviate the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza. His work had become a lifeline for many, standing in defiance of the systematic destruction and displacement being carried out.
“This news is devastating. Just yesterday, Mahmoud shared his plans and ongoing efforts to support the community. Today, his absence leaves a void deeply felt by his grieving family and the thousands of families who relied on his support,” Gaza Soup Kitchen officials said.
Mahmoud leaves behind seven children. His youngest is only two weeks old, while his eldest is still hospitalized, recovering from severe injuries sustained in a prior Israeli drone attack. Gaza Soup Kitchen asked, “How do you explain such a loss to a child?”
His absence is a profound loss for his family and the northern Gaza community. Gaza Soup Kitchen stressed the vital importance of Mahmoud’s contributions and highlighted how his tragic death underscores the immense challenges faced by the Palestinian people.
“Despite this sorrow, we remain steadfast. Mahmoud’s memory will continue to symbolize justice and resilience. We condemn this cowardly attack, which targeted not only Mahmoud but also the survival and dignity of the Palestinian people.”
Gaza Soup Kitchen called on the international community to urgently act to protect civilians and prevent further atrocities. Mahmoud’s legacy will endure as a testament to the resilience of the Palestinian people and their unyielding pursuit of justice.
China: "Remotely detonating communications devices in indiscriminate attacks, causing mass civilian casualties and panic is unheard of in history... The attacks were so outrageously brutal and atrocious that they deserve nothing less than condemnation in the strongest terms."

Cedrick Nianza, a Congolese who self immolated to bring attention to the genocide happening in the Democratic Republic of Congo
We must amplify Cedrick the same way we amplify Aaron Bushnell. Rest in peace
UPDATE: I got footage of the self-immolation at the Israeli embassy in DC.
The individual, wearing fatigues, introduces himself as “an active duty member of the U.S. Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide.”
After ignition, he repeatedly yells “Free Palestine.”

This is not a war. This is a genocide.
Post about Palestine like your life depends on it, because their lives depends on it.
Don't stop talking about Gaza. Push for a permanent ceasefire.
