After my dad was killed in the Bosnian war, I asked to see him. I just didn't want to believe he is indeed dead. So, similar to many children in Gaza, I saw a parent I adored and loved wrapped up in a white sheet. Let me tell you what it does to a child. 🧵

This old man on a wheelchair passed away today while on the journey from Beit Lahia to Gaza City. When he and family arrived at the checkpoint, they had to stay under the sun with no water or food for hours. Remember the Lancet medical journal report? It continues.

At just 13, Malek lost his arm in an airstrike in a Gaza designated 'safe-zone'. Like him, 1000s children have acquired a disability caused by the Israeli military’s conduct in Gaza. ⚠️EU weapons and military exports to Israel contribute to this disaster euobserver.com/eu-and-the-wor…


“I was still holding my son’s arm, so I started running,” Leila told me. “I felt like my son was light. So, I looked and and that was when I discovered that I was holding only his arm.” Why Germany & other EU states must stop the arms sales to Israel: euobserver.com/eu-and-the-wor…

Last night, the Israeli Security Forces (ISF) shot in the chest and killed an 11-year-old Palestinian boy throwing stones at armoured vehicles in #Nablus despite posing no realistic threat. On 20 Oct, in #Hebron, ISF shot in the head a 17-year-old boy, now in critical condition.…

As you slept, Palestinian kids in ICU were killed because Israeli forces bombed a hospital oxygen station. Just what will be the consequences of the West facilitating this depravity in full view of the world? I honestly don't know. I just know we are going to find out.

BREAKING: Israeli forces have bombed the 'oxygen station' at the Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, killing a 'number of children,' according to the report. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/zs30s7

Oxfam condemns in the strongest terms the killing in Gaza today of 4 water engineers working with our partner on their way to repair water infrastructure. They had coordinated their movements with Israeli authorities and were traveling in a marked vehicle. oxfamamerica.org/press/oxfam-co…
