Remember when we learned that our wealthiest and most powerful people were connected to a guy who ran a literal child sex trafficking ring? And then that guy died mysteriously in a jail? And now we just don't talk about it.
๐จFootage shows Israeli soldiers opening fire on Palestinians seeking aid, in what appears to be northern Gaza. Deaths and injuries were reported near the Zikim Crossing (see linked post), where Israel has repeatedly gunned down civilians waiting to unload UN food convoys. The person filming shouts as a man is struck and killed amid continuous gunfire.
Nearly all of the Gaza Strip has been rendered inaccessible to Palestinian civilians.
A new UNOCHA map shows that over 82% of Gaza is now under Israeli military control, displacement orders, or both. The few areas shown in grey are the only zones where Palestinians are still permitted to remainโbut civilians there are also bombed and killed regularly.
