Wer JETZT schweigt, macht sich mitschuldig. Am 20. August 2025 stürmten israelische Truppen Gaza-Stadt – Zufluchtsort für ca. 1 Million bereits vertriebene & hungernde Menschen. Zwei Tage später erklärte d. UNO offiziell eine Hungersnot. Da waren bereits 273 Menschen verhungert, darunter 112 Kinder.
