This morning, the IDF informed Physicians for Human Rights - Israel (PHRI) that they have no record of Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyeh’s detention.

The wilful blindness and the complicit silence of those who subscribed to “Never Again” is sickening. The Geneva conventions created rules of war to prevent the descent into barbarity. We have gone beyond that for over a year now. The extent of depravity of the Israeli regime supported by the US and UK is like nothing seen before. And then I saw this CNN news piece.

Seventeen injured children and babies were recovered after a house was targeted in Jabalia. That’s all there is in Gaza. Children. These are the “terrorists” we must kill to make way for expensive beachfront properties and gas/oil exploration.

Clare Rogers is campaigning to highlight the arrest of her daughter Zoe Rogers who is being held in prison accused of taking part in a protest against a subsidiary of Israel's largest arms factory. Her trial is due in 2025, and she and nine others could face years in prison. Rogers highlights Elbit Systems, Israel’s largest arms company, for producing weapons she believes fuel violence against Palestinians. These weapons, marketed as “battle-tested” on Gazans, symbolise a cycle of violence perpetuated with UK complicity. She wrote a poem called Prison Conversations.

Winter in Gaza

Israeli forces have prohibited the entry of tents into Gaza. As a result, people are living in makeshift shelters made of plastic and blankets, which have all been flooded due to the heavy rain.

This is one story among thousands that have unfolded during the ongoing genocide being perpetrated by the rogue State of Israel in Gaza. Told by J Shawna, a Palestinian from Gaza who escaped to Cairo with his wife and kids.

Corpses are everywhere

Another heartbreaking message from Gaza. From Omar Hamad, a writer and pharmacist. Damn this world that does not care. There is no point in words. No one is listening. Nothing will change.

I came across this tweet by Alan Macleod, a lecturer and Senior Staff writer at Mint Press News about how legacy media reports the genocide of Gaza. It deserves to be reprinted in full.

Shaban Al Dalou

Shaban was a 19 year old software engineering student. In a video he describes his family & their living conditions in a tent at Al Aqsa hospital; the same hospital Israel burned him alive in yesterday.

While the world reflected on the first anniversary of the Gaza genocide, residents of Gaza were recalling their last beautiful and stable days in their homes before the war.

A couple of days ago, I switched on BBC Radio 4 to see if I could bring myself to listen to how they present the news of Gaza. The news presenter said 30 Palestinians had been killed in Gaza.

A picture torn in half

This story is a post I found on X by Omar Hamad, a self described pharmacist, writer and film critic from Gaza, Palestine. Reading it hurts so much. These are Omar’s own words.

A time of peace

The images from Gaza are unviewable. Yesterday I saw a mother explaining to a journalist why her son was a mere skeleton.

Why were two newborn babies, their mother and grandmother precision targeted in their home by the Israeli Occupation Force on August 13?

4-day-old newborn twins in Gaza were targeted by the IOF with their mother and grandmother in their temporary home as their father went to collect birth certificates earlier Tuesday.
