Doctors Without Borders (@MSF) confirmed that staff at Al Nasr Hospital in Gaza had to leave babies in behind as they evacuated southward, driven out by Israeli shelling. (I rarely link Washington Post because it’s behind a paywall)

Fadi Quran:

Here’s a personal story about Palestinian child prisoners:

  • In 2012, I was arrested in Hebron while participating in a march to open Shuhada street, which was a main market street for Palestinians until the Israeli military shut it down, and made it for Israeli settlers only. It’s part of the area
    @JamaalBowmanNY
    visited.

  • Handcuffed and blinded by pepper spray, and thrown in the back of an Israeli humvee after my head was slammed against it, the soldiers drive off. They suddenly stop, run out, and all I hear is a child screaming and crying.

Remember when Biden said the US will build a pier in Gaza back in early March? To deliver food to be checked by ISR in Cyprus, then in Gaza. US military finally started pier construction off Gaza. May take 60 days to build. No rush. Just starving Gazans. @palestine @israel

A man set himself on fire at the Israeli embassy in DC. Earlier reports did not include this:
“The individual, wearing fatigues, introduces himself as “an active duty member of the U.S. Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide.””
And he continues yelling “Free Palestine.” @palestine

From Caitlin Johnston: (please attribute to her)

Follow
The ten dumbest things we're being asked to believe about Gaza:

  1. That Israel had no idea what Hamas was up to prior to October 7, but ever since October 7 has known about every hospital, mosque, school, refugee camp and water tower that Hamas is hiding in.

  2. That the blame for all of the deaths caused by Israeli weapons launched by Israel rests solely on Hamas.

  3. That Hamas is using “human shields” — meaning Hamas bases are hidden amidst civilian populations — yet Israel is managing to kill thousands of civilians without doing any meaningful damage to Hamas.

  4. That it would be perfectly fine to murder children by the thousands even if they were being used as “human shields” — as though resolving a hostage situation by mowing down thousands of child hostages would be regarded as reasonable and acceptable by the public if it happened in our own country.

The Palestinian children detained by Israel (correction - 150 not 300 Palestinian prisoners to be released. Data and info on the children is shocking. Torture, interrogations, injuries at arrests, 20 year sentences for stone throwing) @palestine @israel

Hassan Nasrallah: "We extend our condolences today to the martyrs, the great leader Qasem Soleimani and his Iranian companions in Baghdad, and to Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the great martyr, and his Iraqi companions.

What happened today in Kerman (), and the attack against those commemorating this event, women, men, children, where there were numerous martyrs, more than 80 according to my information, and 160 injured. We extend our condolences to their families.

Hassan Nasrallah: "I will address the brothers and sisters on Friday, God willing, during a commemoration. I will discuss certain current topics on Friday instead of tonight, if God keeps me alive.

We extend our condolences to our brother, the great leader Sheikh Saleh, Vice President of the Political Bureau of Hamas, who fell as a martyr yesterday in a blatant Israeli aggression against the southern suburbs of Beirut." @lebanon
