"I called my friend to check on her, not knowing what was going on with her. I said, "Hello, Raghad, please tell me how you all are?" She replied, 'Our house was bombed.'
I told her, 'I'm so sorry, but the most important thing is that you are safe.' She continued, 'My father was martyred, and my brother too. My mother lost her leg, and my sister lost her arms and legs, and I got burned.'
I ended the call because I couldn't find any words to comfort her, and I couldn't even cry."

The red color highlights the age group between 0 and 4 years.
The green color emphasizes the age group between 5 and 17 years.
The white color spotlights the age group between 18 and 59 years.
The gray color underscores the age group above 60 years.

"Know that these names are not just names or numbers, but each person among them was brimming with life, dreams, and passion. Each one had a story to live, a story to cling to in hopes of experiencing it one day. But now, all those stories have come to an end..."

mike_malaska, to Geology

Picking back up on the GSA field trip. Day 2, cave 3.

This was after Mammoth cave, we went to nearby by Crystal Onyx cave. Unlike Mammoth this was a wet cave with lots of drippity dissolution and deposition features.

Yes, it seemed to start out touristy-cheesy. But WOW! did it have a lot of neat geology going on!

We were the last tour of the day, just us geological nerds. So we hung out here waiting for our guide and the amazing discoveries below....

Hostages

Israeli relatives are increasingly angry over the fate of the Hamas captives, particularly during the military’s large-scale bombing campaign of Gaza where they’re held.

Netanyahu made no commitment to any prisoner-swap deal with Hamas but told families of the taken: “We will exhaust every possibility to bring them home.”

@israel

Elijah Magnier, a military and political analyst, says the Israeli government is “fully aware” that captives in Gaza cannot be freed through military force.

“Israel has never managed to release anyone in captivity by military action,” he said.

@israel

Hamas’s leader in the Gaza Strip, Yahya Sinwar, says the group is ready for an “immediate” prisoner swap with Israel.

“We are ready to conduct an immediate prisoner exchange deal that includes the release of all Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails in exchange for all prisoners held by the Palestinian resistance,” Sinwar said in a statement.

Omar

Omar is very chatty, but you would never get bored around him, he is very cheerful, thinking of everything and anything and cared for everyone. He can’t stop when it comes to sports or the space, would he be a footballer one day or maybe even an astronaut? With the way he thinks and with his energy he can be a good psychiatrist?

He won’t, Omar was killed with 12 of his family.

Father

"I can't comprehend how my father is so calm, content, and gratified... excessively content and every minute he reminds me that we are safe, thanks be to God. My father received the news of our house being bombed with composure, open-heartedness, and acceptance.

When he sensed my sadness, he said to me, "Those who have lost their homes and lives are no better than us, my daughter, and anything God bestows upon us is the best."

My beloved father ♥️

University

"My beloved university, between today and yesterday 💔.

The occupation did not stop at demolishing my university, where I spent 4 years pursuing my bachelor's degree and a year for my master's studies. They also destroyed the very first place where I learned letters (my kindergarten).

They shattered my childhood and youth together!"

University
1/2
"I dreamt that I went to the workspace in front of the university and stood by the window, looking at the university as I always do. But this time, I couldn't find the university; my beloved university had disappeared and crumbled. I couldn't find a way to get back home; all the streets were blocked and houses were in ruins.

I woke up startled by the sound of shelling around us, and I was crying because this dream, unfortunately, became a reality."
