Israel destroyed Gaza's oldest mosque built in 15th century.
#IDF is working hard to flatten out Gaza, erase it's history, make it uninhabitable and at the end getting rid of the Palestinians in the name of "right to defend itself" with the money, support and weapons of #US and it's allies in #NATO.
When Notre Dame was burned, the whole world was upset and made collections and support France to rebuild it.
Israel has in 2 months destroyed the 3rd oldest #church in the world and now the oldest #mosque in n #Gaza, all without a single condemnation by the "world leaders".
United Nations humanitarian chief: ‘Gaza is a carnage, worst crisis ever’
CNN's Christiane Amanpour (22 Nov): —How do you assess what's happening right now in terms of humanitarian needs in Gaza?
Martin Griffiths, United Nations' humanitarian agency chief (OCHA): —The worst ever, Christiane, and I don't say that lightly. I started off in my 20s dealing with the #KhmerRouge, and you remember how bad that was, the killing fields and so forth. But 68% of the people killed in Gaza are women and children. [...] It's complete and utter carnage.
He also says he has confidence in the numbers provided by Gaza's health ministry, because #UNRWA has been running relief institutions in #Gaza for decades.
Doctors Without Borders said that the intensification of the onslaught by Israeli forces on #Rafah has forced it to stop providing lifesaving care at Rafah Indonesian Field hospital as of 12 May.
Heartbreaking video of a palestinian child who lost his father and siblings in an Israeli missile attack was asked "What Do You Want", his response was "I want to live".
Israeli snipers targeting any person moving on the streets of Khan Yunis or northern roads to Rafah. Even nurses inside the last functioning hospital were shot by IDF snipers through the windows of the hospital.
IDF is also bombing coastal areas of Rafah and targeting ambulances (the few still functioning) and people carrying the wounded.
The videos are too horrifying for me to share (but you can easily find them on Twitter or TikTok).

Two Red Crescent paramedics were murdered by #IDF while they were working in #Rafah last night. Their ambulance was hit directly and intentionally.
Of course the usual excuse by IDF is that there were #Hamas fighters in the ambulances. Ignoring that injured fighters are not legitimate targets, specially if they are inside an ambulance receiving care.
The Israeli military have started it's ground offensive against Rafah by the border of Egypt by air, artillery and tanks.
There are reports of heavy bombings and classes by the border, with no reaction from the Egyptian military despite loud warning about such acts just a few weeks ago.
The #US has blocked a statement, put forward by #Algeria and backed by all #UNSC’s 15 members except the US, to the #UN Security Council that would have condemned Israel for the killing of more than 100 Palestinians awaiting food aid in northern Gaza.
The US claimed it is trying to verify the “circumstances around how people died” to see if “we can find some language that everyone can agree on”.
This reminds me of the days after Saddam used chemical weapons against Halanbja in norther Iraq back in 1988, when US and UK used the EXACT same language to prevent the UN to condemn the attacks and blamed the "both sides" for the "loss of lives".
Back then the president was republican, now it's democract. So I guess, US foreign policy doesn't change much from the 2, when it comes to supporting "strategic" partners of US (at the time).
They are proud of their soldiers comitting war crime.
And disgusting #GenocideJoe doesn't have the balls to condemn this outrageous crime that killed over 104 people and injured close to 800.
The stench of hypocrisy and inhumanity of the western leaders, is so strong and sickening that I just can't stand it.
Who remembers the "world" reaction to the story of the missile with cluster bombs that hit a train station in Ukraine, something that was blamed on Russia, despite the fact clear proof of trajectory of the missile showed that it was an Ukrainian missile that misfired.
Here we have a nation who proudly brag about their soldiers comitting a horrible war crime, we have 100s of videos and pictures plus testimony of Israeli military admitting that it was them who did it, but the hypocrites of the west can't have an ounce of decency to condemn it and call it for what it is.
Just the kind of incisive commentary we were missing.
Piss off Willy.
Telegraph: "The Prince of Wales has made his strongest intervention yet on the crisis in the Middle East, saying: 'Too many have been killed'"

Reactions on extreme right and pro Israeli accounts goes from sadbes, to condemnation and mostly ridicule and calling him "deeply disturbed individual".
Both #CNN and #NewsWeek were forced to edit their initial posts about Aaron Bushnell's tragic protest action to include some parts of his final words but removed the reference to #Palestine there.
Other articles refute that he might have been Jewish, his #LinkedIn and Facebook pages have been removed, together with his final post where he explained why he chose to protest the ongoing genocide in Gaza and American complicity in it by setting himself on fire.
Images of DC police holding a gun against him instead of trying to put out the fire have been deleted and accounts posting them receiving up to 2 week ban on #Facebook and #Instagram.

A new batch of American weapons of 1800 MK84 missiles reach Tel Aviv from Washington.
These are 2000 pounds (085kg) bombs. Used by Israel to destroy large number of residential buildings in #Gaza before.
The weight of weapons sent by Pentagon during this shipment exceeds the total "humanitarian aid" US have sent to Gaza since the start of the Israeli attacks.
Listen to Lammy on Politics Hub, telling us why Labour won't support the SNP motion. How can voting for a ceasefire, which 70% of the electorate want and has already caused them to haemorrhage voters "cut across [our] ability [to serve]?!??? 🤬
“We don’t want to do anything in an election year, in which the Labour Party might have the privilege of serving, that cuts across our ability to do that.”
