More than 400 people killed in a second. I can't fathom the cruelty of it all. This death toll. That their loved ones can't mourn. On empty stomachs, sick from contaminated water, sifting through the rubble to find pieces of them. That the whole world is letting this happen live.
In this thread I will be translating the biggest takeaways from Al Quds Radio 102.7 on Radio Garden Live (it’s blocked in the UK btw). This station is live from Gaza and it’s in Arabic.
“Areej texted her fiancé at the beginning of the aggression a picture of her in her wedding dress and she said, ‘I might not be able to wear it again.”
She never had her wedding. She was killed with 15 members of her immediate family on Tuesday.

Love how the IDF’s proof just so happens to be two random ‘Hamas’ guys who decided to explicitly detail everything very casually, calmly and conveniently.
‘Yes, our rocket fire came from exactly this location’
ok.
Is this what you meant when you said “give ‘em hell” @jordanbpeterson ?
Is this what you meant when you said “finish them” @NikkiHaley ?
Is this the what you mean by Israel “defending itself” @POTUS ?
Was this the footage you all in the media have been waiting for?
This is on all of you.
#GazaGenocide #GazaHospital
Over 500 Palestinians were just killed in an Israeli airstrike on a hospital in Gaza (a number that is rising) & this is the language being used:
“Hamas-run”
This language immediately legitimizes the violence while diminishing the impact of the violence - bc it’s “Hamas-run”
You, your gov’t, your party & entirety of the Canadian political landscape spent the last week cheering on Israel’s “right to defend itself”, refusing to condemn the assault on Gaza & loss of Palestinian life.
Who created the humanitarian situation? Who impeded access to aid?
This is Iyas, 9, who lives at the Mubarat Al Rehmat children's centre in Gaza City. He is blind, non-verbal and has hypotonia. He and 26 other kids are trapped there with just 2 people caring for them. The director: "there is no safe passage and we can't move the children anyway"
