In the end it's going to be easier to work out the death toll by counting who is actually left alive. Looking at these images, they're never going to find all the bodies. #gaza #genocide

The most important point here is in the last paragraph:

"People who are suffering from acute malnutrition need specialised treatment, as they can develop refeeding syndrome if they resume eating normally after a prolonged period of hunger."

Consistent food aid AND medical care needed now.
How will Israel’s ‘humanitarian pauses’ affect Gaza’s starvation crisis?
Israel says it will ease blockade but has not clarified if it will allow supplies at scale needed to reverse hunger crisis

Two major Israeli human rights organizations, B’Tselem & Physicians for Human Rights, officially declared Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, citing bombs targeting civilians, displacement, and deliberate starvation. The first time the Gaza genocide is called out from within Israeli society. #3E🧵

In a sane world, every newspaper would run on A1 tomorrow:

“IDF THREAT: IF JOURNALISTS PHOTOGRAPH GAZA, WE WILL STARVE GAZA”
Journalists covering the aid air drops say they have been warned by Israel not to film Gaza from the air or the air drops will stop. (Do they not want us to see the scale of the damage?)

“International journalists have not been allowed inside Gaza.”

I just finished moving my half Irish, half Scottish mother out of her apartment. She is going to stay with my brother for a few weeks until her house is ready, so all the larder contents came home with me.

It's also your occasional reminder that Robert Shaw who played Quint in the movie, grew up and went to school in Stromness #Orkney where his father was the local doctor. 🦈

Netanyahu’s illegal unilateral attack on Iran risks a full-blown war.

These strikes directly undermine the U.S. diplomatic efforts to address Iran’s nuclear program. Talks were planned for Sunday, but Netanyahu chose to attack.

We must not be dragged into another Netanyahu war.
