Journalist Hossam Shabat reports on weather conditions in Gaza. He writes

Today, temperatures in Gaza reached 37°C (100°F), with most residents living in tents where the temperature is even higher. People lack fans, air conditioning, or access to drinkable water.

This heatwave is expected to increase the risk of heatstroke among the already malnourished and dehydrated population in northern Gaza.

Her smile is so beautiful! I would love to see a smile as bright on the face of all of the children in Palestine. 🇵🇸

What makes me extremely sad is that we are all trying to do what we can to find Mansour, someone who was helping by having an organization there and is also Canadian so they can get legal help from Canada to find him. However there are so many Palestinians missing and it's like, they are all deserving to be found.and another example is Lama who is a 9 year old Palestinian and is now the youngest reporter there and ppl are reaching out extra to get her out of there. Idk if this makes sense. It's not the "we shouldn't do that for them because they aren't much different than the others there" it's more of

" there are just far too many and we don't know their names and what they do aside of the fact they are going through the same thing, and we can't provide them all that same extra treatment to get them out as well"

Like yes! Let's do what we can to help Lama and Mansour! But we need to remember there's another 9 year old girl out there too, who's not a reporter, a little boy who shares his drink with his friend, a mother who makes desserts to keep her kids happy, a guy pulling out water from his tent with a small bucket, all who are just trying to survive just as much. Who is deserving to get that help just as much.

And it just feels like the government would just pick and choose who is worthy. THEY ALL ARE.

It's frustrating, it's sad, it's heartbreaking.idk if this makes sense.

"The occupation forces opened fire on Palestinians who were waiting for the arrival of the humanitarian convoy to the north of Gaza." from Eye On Palestine, 27/Feb/2024:

Please do support our brothers and sisters in beloved country Palestine by spreading the hashtag #feednorthgaza . Your action matters. May all of them be freed soon from the zionist genocide inshaallah.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

#feednorthgaza

Palestinians are starving. Its a deliberate tatic by the IDF to kill them as a part of their zelous genocidal crusade. It's a huge humanitarian crisis at unprecedented levels. They are resorting to eating animal feed and skinning cats. Drinking seawater. Suriving on one, what could generously be called a "meal" per day.

I worry that this may become a new norm or a stereotype. Like, think of those poor starving kids in Africa will become think of those poor starving kids in Gaza. It'll become a way to gulit you into eating more instead of calling out politicians and sending aid. Do you know what I mean?

like, the great Chinese famine (1959-1961) produced a stereotype that China eats dogs, it was used as a basis for undue prejudice. It was taken as a sign of their barbarism and inhumanity rather than a sign of their great desperation. Do you know what I mean?

like, Ireland still hasn't recovered from the Irish Famine (1845-1849) in terms of population and its affects are still in place. Ireland still has reasonably strong ties to the native Americans who sent them aid then, Irish Americans are tracing their ancestral roots and Bram Stoker's Dracula only exists in part because his mother's bedtime stories about the famine gave him vivd nightmares as a child. I sort of wonder how this Palestine will affect our culture, and it will affect our future because of how much its affecting us now with the footage, and the protests and everything. Do you know what I mean?

I don't know what I mean

Women and girls that are in Gaza are using tent scraps as period products. Tent scraps.

not only do they not have access to clean water, clean bathroom or any bathroom at this point . not only do they not have proper living corders, they do not have access to period products. using tent scraps as period products, same as many things they need to use as compensation for things they need, is causing infections.

and as there is no medical supplies available in Gaza, these women, these LITTLE GIRLS that have just started their periods are dying from these infections.

all while this is happening, you AND me have access to all those things. unlimited access.

the worst thing you can do right now is being silent. shame on all you people who have no real human compassion, nor decency who can’t even boycott, or share valuable information and news about what is currently going on.

people are dying as we live in peace, feeling “unaffected” by the situation.

children are dying as we stay silent.

speak up for Palestine. do not keep your eyes away from Palestine.

Wake up.

Ok so i just saw a *post claiming* that tumblr does indeed support isreal

(Im not 100% sure just seeing posts going around that tumblr is pushing pro-israel content, i should of looked more but really i dont want to take the risk so ill still be posting less on here)

Heres a poster i designed in support

For updates on palestine and news i watch gaza heros and bisan

Palestinian Infant starved to death under Israeli siege in Gaza

Please watch and reblog. Also spread around the tag "airdropaidforgaza". Countries (like france and jordan) have air dropped aid in North Gaza due to the spreading of awareness!! So keep on and don't stop spreading and sharing!

A brave nurse risks herself to save a young man who was shot by an Israeli occupation sniper at the gate of Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis.

And always

Free Palestine

25 April 2024

Photographer Mohamed Yasin reports that careless delivery of airdropped “aid” resulted in all of it being dropped into the ocean. Hundreds of starving Gazans are trying to swim out and carry back some food for their families.

Palestinian Recipes: Maqluba. It's a blessing that they're able to indulge in cultural foods during this genocide, just shows how resilient the Palestinian people are!

Free Palestine 🇵🇸 Feed North Gaza!!

Caption on post -

The Gaza health ministry said Israeli forces are stealing organs from the bodies of people killed in field executions.

Speaking to Al Jazeera, Dr. Ashraf A-Qudra, the spokesperson for the Gaza Health Ministry, said up to 100 bodies at a time are often returned to Gaza from lsrael and buried without being identified, which he said is devastating for families who do not know the fate of their missing relatives.

A-Qudra said bodies are taken from Gaza to an unknown location in Israel, where their organs are stolen or their bodies are used for medical research. The bodies are then returned to Gaza either decomposed or missing organs.

we NEED to keep talking about Palestine. we NEED to keep talking about the death and famine in Gaza. we NEED to keep talking about the war crimes the IOF is committing and shamelessly flaunting online right in front of us. Why aren't there any tags regarding this on the trending tags page anymore?

I am so ashamed we can all sit comfortably in our homes and enjoy our fandoms while nearly almost 30,000 Palestinians, 29,692 human lives, have been mercilessly slaughtered and starved out, and thats only since October 7th to this day. The injured count lies almost around 69,879.

In the past 24 hours, at least 86 people were killed, and around 131 others are left injured.

These are not just numbers. They are REAL people who just had their whole lives violently torn apart in just a day. Entire family lines massacred and wiped out in just a day.

UNRWA says the last time it was able to deliver food to northern Gaza was January 23rd.

January 23rd.

That is well over a month by now, and people are starving. People are using donkey fodder to keep themselves going. They have so much hope and determination, but the world is still failing them.

Keep the discussion open. Keep reblogging and tagging updates on Palestine. Keep doing your daily clicks, and donate somewhere if you financially can. Keep striking. Keep sharing the atrocities committed by the I"D"F and its supporters (our own complicit countries) so the innocent people of Palestine aren't swept under the rug like the rubble that burries their martyred mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, and children. I am painfully reminded of my own people lying in unmarked graves somewhere forgotten and hidden away, the horrors of residential schools shared to me by my poor grandmother and Canada's continued silence. And that pales in comparison to the mangled bodies piling up in Gaza before our very eyes.

This is genocide.

This is not a trend, this is real life. They are still dying, starving, mourning, and petrified. Never forget the genocide the IOF is carrying out for the whole world to see. Never stop talking about it long after Palestine is free.

From the river to the sea, Palestine WILL be free. 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
