When, almost a full year ago, UNICEF called Gaza “a war on children”, we did so not out of hyperbole or for a headline, but because of hard evidence on the ground. Appallingly, as per below, such evidence of this war on children keeps mounting.
.@airwars has a major study on Gaza: gaza-patterns-harm.airwars.o… It finds Israel's war on Gaza far more lethal for civilians than other recent wars.The total of 1900 children killed by Israel in Gaza in Oct '23 was seven times the number killed in a single month in any other war it has studied.

Artist impression in planning application vs development when actually built.

Trócaire's Acting Country Manager in Sudan, Mandefro Aynalem says:
"The conflicts in the world have increased significantly and the attention has been diverted to the Ukraine war and currently to Gaza."
Sudan is the "most severe crisis in the world but it's underfunded".
Aid agencies say Sudan is suffering the worst humanitarian catastrophe in recent history, yet the crisis in the northeast African country remains unknown to most of the world rte.ie/news/world/2024/1217/…

I'm still thinking about how extremely devastating & horrifying this is. This attack was 850metres from my house at 4am in the morning, no warning, killing civilians in their sleep. #lebanon teapawt.org/sallyhayd/status/18611…
'"We picked up a leg here, a hand here. We took out the bodies of three children yesterday. We found a dead older couple, both of them in wheelchairs," said Jaafar, an 18-year-old rescuer. "It was the worst scene yet."' teapawt.org/GebeilyM/status/186105…

When student protestors chant “From the River to the Sea,” it means they want to destroy Israel, but when the current Israeli Finance Minister publicly declares his intention to ethnically cleanse Gaza, it doesn’t mean anything, and you’re an antisemite if you suggest it does.

This is one of the most important civil liberties battles happening in America right now, and if you’re a professor (tenured or otherwise) at an American university, you need to be speaking out about it.
The worst are full of passionate intensity; we need to be, too.

Pics of people in N Gaza killed in Israeli strikes are horribly normalised and testimony from orgs like @WHO ignored: ‘It’s appalling hospitals in #Gaza continue to be attacked and patients continue to be harmed….’
Shortly after the @WHO-led mission to Kamal Adwan Hospital yesterday, the facility's third floor was reportedly hit again, injuring six children who are patients there. One child sustained a critical injury. Water tanks were damaged. Heavy bombardment persisted very close to the hospital, including when WHO was delivering aid.
It is appalling that hospitals in #Gaza continue to be attacked, patients continue to be harmed, and health workers and humanitarians continue to work under life-threatening conditions.
