While the ceasefire is being celebrated, there are also feelings of grief, of betrayal, of extreme anger. The agreement will not bring back the martyrs, it will not regrow amputated limbs, it will not give children like Ahmed their lives back. https://t.co/0ODAZTrsr7. Ahmed lost

Hossam and Anas should’ve been announcing the end of genocide ,celebrating the end of bloodshed. Instead, they gave their lives so the world could see the truth. Your courage, sacrifice, and voices will never be forgotten , the world is forever grateful for your truth. 🕊️

You are not seeing this slaughter live-streamed to your devices because Israel has murdered most of Gaza’s most prominent journalists in targeted assassinations.

This campaign hasn’t received any donations for two weeks Ahmad is a deaf man with a large family, and he is still in N. Gaza with no money to escape death and flee to S. Gaza. I beg you a million times to save his family. Please donate and share.

This is an amazing story. While some would drag medicine back to the middle ages, doctors and scientists are still in the trenches doing amazing work and utterly transforming and saving lives.

I say this as a flotilla participant: we cannot let drone attacks distract from the genocide. Israel has murdered at least 84 people in Gaza so far today, with the real number likely far higher. Governments need to sanction this rogue state, not just protect their own citizens
