    The small child covered in bandages, just seeing it traumatized me i'm sobbing. I can't imagine how the people of gaza feel, especially the kids.
  • @willnat1422

    Oh God, that child was covered in bandages, head to toe!

    Admirable and honourable, we're sorry of what you saw! I am sure you'll see the stark contrast of what is reported compared to what was observed but forever we are in debt to you.

    Absolute love and respect to these medics. May Allah grant ease to the people of Palestine. ❤

    And Netanyahu unveiled his vision of Gaza for 2035 today. A load of shiny skyscrapers dotted all over the dead Palestinians buried in mass graves. And here I was disgusted by the Gulf States building their towers over the dead foreign workers. Just the word Israel now makes my skin crawl.
  • @maggiechan33
    The images in this report, are far less distressing, than what is happening to the people in Rafah.
  • @pluribus_unum
    Genocide isn't self-defense. 0.01% of Palestinians in Gaza are in Hamas' militant brigades. Collective punishment is a crime against humanity -- in no small part because of what happened from 1941-1945

    “We are being exterminated. We are being massively eradicated. And you pretend to care for humanitarian and human rights, which is not what we are living now. To prove us wrong, please do something.” doctor Hammam Alloh’s October 31 interview with Democracy Now

    The 81 year old supplying stuff to take arms off the innocent child, so insane!
