I remember when they kidnapped me in November, they wrote something on my clothes that I could not see, because I was handcuffed and blindfolded. Whenever soldiers passed by me, they would check what was written on my back or pants. They would start kicking me and insulting me in…
“We are alive, but we are not okay. We are tired. Everybody here is devastated.” #Gaza’s healthcare workers are tired, hungry, and scared. Our staff share their haunting stories and the stories of their colleagues in our latest article: doctorswithoutborders.ca/enduring-the-u…
Gaza-based journalist Akram al-Satarri has just returned from Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, where Palestinians are still uncovering more bodies, many with evidence of torture or summary execution. "The three different mass graves are containing around 700 bodies," he says.
In every protest I’ve seen, whenever Muslims are praying, people - of all backgrounds, beliefs - have shown up to protect us. I’d be lying if I said this image didn’t choke me up.

“This is the biggest cohort of pediatric amputees in history,” a reconstructive surgeon who specializes in pediatric trauma said, of the record number of children who have been injured in the war in Gaza. nyer.cm/oHpyFZz
They say that tomorrow is Eid, summer is gone, winter has arrived, then New Year, then summer again, Ramadan and Eid, and I stumble every day in a whole world designed from my nightmares. There are a thousand soldiers and a thousand shells between me and my home.
43,340 children in Gaza live with one or no parents.
"Life is hard without a mother." This 11-year-old Palestinian girl has become the sole carer for her infant brother after their mother was killed in an Israeli attack in Gaza ⤵️
Independent human rights expert @FranceskAlbs presents her latest findings. "My report finds that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the threshold indicating that #Israel is commiting the crime of genocide against Palestinians as a group in #Gaza has been met."

Israel’s blockade of Gaza is causing a water crisis never seen before. 97% of Gaza’s water is unfit for human consumption, which means that Palestinians in Gaza are not just starving, they are also dying of thirst. #WorldWaterDay
"In the West, Israeli universities are considered bastions of pluralism and democracy" but they are "a central pillar of Israel's regime of oppression against Palestinians," says @mayaywind, author of "Towers of Ivory and Steel: How Israeli Universities Deny Palestinian Freedom."
Keep in mind that as of today, there is no hospital in Gaza city, no doctors and nurses to offer medical treatment for the wounded and ill people or those who will be wounded in the coming hours and days. The army has bombed and raided the Shifa Hospital again and again.
I swear to God, I’m scared, I swear to God, I’m scared. I just want to leave this place. We can clearly see the horror in the eyes of this terrified child from what he witnessed last night after the invasion of Shifa Hospital in Gaza, where nearly 20,000 displaced people were…

There’s a food influencer I used to follow on TikTok from Gaza who did reviews of restaurants and dishes there. He disappeared for months after the war but now he’s back making cooking videos using things from aid packages for kids in the refugee encampments:

Over the past week, I had the privilege and opportunity to visit Rafah, Gaza to bear witness to an ongoing genocide, bring in essential medications and supplies, and provide humanitarian medical relief work in primary healthcare.
Spoke with Mohammed today, who said he is living in a handmade tent in Rafah that leaks when it rains. "We are suffering from lack of water, healthy food, power, and the internet," he said 1/3
I wrote about Mohammed, a young Palestinian software developer who had a visa and a plane ticket to Toronto dated Oct. 10. He never made it over. Now, like most of Gaza, he is homeless and says he has "seen horrors you wouldn't believe." thestar.com/news/canada/he…
For months we have seen Palestinian women wear their prayer garments as their last items of clothing, their clothing as they carry their children after displacement; as they kiss their children, husbands, brothers & fathers goodbye. The culture of celebrity is rotten.
Today, in the streets outside the Peace Palace in The Hague, Palestinian activists greeted South Africa’s legal team with gratitude and flowers.
no words for Canadian journalists + journalism educators who for 3 months have not spoken out against the systematic murders of journalists in Gaza + show blatant disregard for the value of their lives, their work. never speak to me about your hollow commitments to press freedom

AJ+ senior producer and host @yelmjouie won an Emmy award for his show Eat This, the day after Al Jazeera’s cameraman Samer Abu Daqqah was killed by Israeli strikes.
Palestinians are the most resilient people on earth. Absolute chills.
“Please stop the war on us for God’s sake.” Listen to displaced Palestinians call for an end to Israel’s war on Gaza after the U.S. vetoed a UN resolution calling for a lasting ceasefire.

I am once again beyond language. Healthcare colleagues who stayed silent or who argued over “politeness” and “civility” while thousands of people died - I see you, I will remember you, I am not sure I can ever forgive you.
The softness of Palestinian men while they are faced with such brutality and oppression is unlike anything I've ever seen. The mercy they show, the loudness of their love, the care. May they be enveloped in mercy and love here and forever.
