Opens her eyes to see them one last time, wipes her face & cradles her with the gentle tenderness of a parent tucking his toddler into bed for the night. Where is Tarik? he asks. Her little brother maybe. Side by side they lay wrapped as he fusses with their final burial shrouds.

We couldn’t get him out and he died painfully with no access to medical care or pain relief for an abdominal blast injury. I honestly don’t know how much more our staff can take.

"Hundreds of current in-patients. Thousands of IDPs in the buildings and courtyard. Many people too sick or frail to leave. NICU full of neonates. Post-operative patients. The elderly, disabled and war wounded. Where will they go? They can’t move."

Israel has killed over 11,500 Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank since October 7th, when 36 Israeli children were killed. It’s impossible to imagine that number. This is what it looks like. A line 5km long. (Location: Bournemouth Beach)

Teachers, university staff, students and journalists gathered in Oxford today to call for an immediate end to the killing in Gaza. Oxford UCU unfurled a banner bearing the names of 97 Gazan academics and professors who have been killed.

Forcing 1 million+ displaced Palestinians in Rafah to again evacuate would be unlawful & have catastrophic consequences, says Human Rights Watch. There's nowhere safe to go in Gaza. The ICJ has ordered Israel to prevent genocide. The int'l community should act to prevent further atrocities.

“What we are asking is for people to get out into the streets and squares, to surround the embassies to stop the torrent of Palestinian blood.” A desperate plea from the head of one of the last functioning hospitals in Rafah.

The Israeli military’s violent attacks on the hospitals of north Gaza & the brutal raid now unfolding follows the same pattern as the atrocity crimes perpetrated against other Gaza hospitals. This intentional pattern of behaviour deprives all Gazans of their right to health.

Israel’s murder of the AJ journalists last night is part of a pattern of eliminating witnesses to the genocide. Israel is killing Palestinian journalists in record numbers. International journalists are banned. Even volunteer healthcare workers are increasingly denied entry.

Anas al-Sharif and his colleagues played a key role in gathering evidence of Israel’s genocidal targeting of healthcare in Gaza. We must honour their memory with action: Speak out, act, and use whatever influence you have to bring an end to the genocide. bdsmovement.net/what-bds
