Graphic design artist Moataz Abu Sakran has provided extensive documentation of the genocide against Gaza. His photos and videos have been used—often without credit—by major media outlets, and his posts are featured on this blog regularly.
Moataz and his wife and baby girl are trapped in the vicinity of Al-Shifa Hospital complex. The area has been under complete siege for 10 days, and life is extremely difficult and dangerous. In addition to the physical violence of the ongoing siege, the occupation’s famine has made food extremely scarce—Moataz can no longer find milk and nutritious food for baby Maria.
For weeks he has been trying to put together funds to evacuate his family, but donations have stalled, and there is still quite a way to go before they have enough to evacuate.
There was an increase in donations after we initially shared the link on this blog. We are hoping that will happen again. Please support Moataz’s family via this link so that they can reach safety. Even just a few dollars will help. If you can’t donate, please share the link on all your social media accounts.
This is the primary link to donate and share. You can copy and paste it onto other posts and social media sites.
Thank you for sharing this! This is happening in a few days -this upcoming weekend (March 31st, 2024). For folks living in New Jersey, and are able to disrupt, resist, and protest -please do!
Update! (as of March 28th, 2024): They have moved this 'event' to online. We do not have the direct zoom link as of yet, and OP highlights being careful while signing up to prevent doxxing since more information is required to now sign up.
What does the UN resolution on Gaza ceasefire mean?
The UN Security Council has passed its first resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza after nearly six months of war. Here are some of the key takeaways.
people drowning in the sea trying to fetch the parachuted aids is another crime added to the usa list. with all their advanced technology they're able to kill people with drones and shoot them precisely and efficiently but when it comes to dropping “humanitarian” aids they could only aim at sea..... rest in peace to those who were martyred trying to get some food for their families and loved ones. rest in peace humanity.
"Ramadan is the best time to kill them, because they are weak and low in strength"
Almog Cohen
Israeli Kinesset Minister
Israeli Knesset Member Almog Cohen says the month of Ramadan, when Muslims all over the world are fasting, is the ‘best time to kill’ the people of Gaza because they’re weak and tired’.
Speaking on the Israeli Channel 14, he called on Prime Minister Netanyahu to invade Rafah and ‘kill them’.
Israel has killed over 32,000 Palestinians since the start of its war on Gaza on 7 October, the majority being women and children.
ISRAELI OCCUPATION FORCES BOMB BUILDINGS DIRECTLY NEXT TO THE TENTS OF DISPLACED PALESTINIAN FAMILIES IN GAZA
📹 Scenes from the moment when Zionist occupation forces bombed several buildings in and around Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip, directly adjacent to the tents of displaced Palestinian families sheltering near the hospital.
“The patients are dying slowly, and we are dying with them.”
Nurse Mohammed Saeed shares a messsge he received from a colleague at Al-Shifa Hospital. The speaker describes the extremely difficult and dangerous conditions under which the occupation keeps them. The IOF is depriving them of food, water, and medications. She says the spread of disease among the staff and wound infection among patients is catastrophic. They are exhausted, miserable, and terrified.
Bayan was reporting from Northern Gaza, and she is the one the many Palestinian journalists I get updates from on Twitter. When I saw her message initially about what had happened to her brother days ago, I had this terrible feeling that the IOF had done something, and right up to this moment I hope that is not the case and we hear news from her soon. This is beyond horrific.
