As part of its brutal air, ground and sea siege on Gaza, Israel has been arbitrarily detaining hundreds of Palestinians and taking them to unknown locations. Distressing footage released by the Israeli army in December depicted scores of men lined up, stripped down to underwear, blindfolded and under the command of Israeli soldiers, who claimed they were suspected Hamas fighters.
Noony_boony from Twitter, aka Noury the jjk fan artist from Gaza, posted a fundraiser to help treat her and her family’s injuries after the IDF attacked them with a tank shell as they were sheltering in a school. She and her parents and brother are suffering from terrible under-treated injuries: lost eyes, broken bones, major damage to tissue/muscles, open wounds, etc. Shes fundraising to send the money to her family in Ireland so they can provide aid from there when the war hopefully ends, I’m posting this here to spread its reach as much as I can.
Please share + donate if you can.

The IOF continues to steal the childhoods of countless Palestinian children. I've seen so many videos of very blatant symptoms of PTSD -seeing emotional and psychological responses to triggers from sudden sounds and movements. You can see stress and anxiousness and fear in their eyes -even when we see videos of them smiling/being hugged and comforted by journalists, doctors, and neighbors/relatives in their communities -they have been robbed -so many of them for decades now and continuously of just being able to be children -to be free from violence and oppression.
I have also seen videos of their entire lives being changed instantaneously with a debilitating injury or amputation due to their communities/hospitals/homes being air-striked, to losing their entire families and being orphaned. I've seen videos of them lifeless in their parents arms -something no parent SHOULD EVER have to record and share to get the world to fucking pay attention.
These are 'experiences,' and circumstances NO child should EVER have to face in their life. I'd say where the hell has UNICEF been -because aren't you supposed to be protecting children's rights ALL around the world? Are Palestinian children not worthy of protection? Over 10,000 of them have been MURDERED by the IOF.
Children shouldn't have to be worried about hearing BOMBS -they should be talking about their school lives, their friends, how excited they are to go to the beach, to try new foods at a restaurant they want to go to, to travel -to do so many wonderful things but THIS is what they have to live with right now even with glimpses of light and hope...
I will say this time and again -the United Nations is disgraceful.
Or am I just wishing I could be like you?

Just because we aren't seeing more posts about Palestine, doesn't mean the genocide has stopped. Let's keep Praying and speaking up for Gaza, Palestine.

Hello dear friends! ❤🤍🖤💚
🍉I am Mahmoud Ayyad, a Palestinian from the besieged and destroyed Gaza 😭😭, coming from an extended family of young children, women and elderly people ❤❤ who have been suffering😭😭 for 300 difficult days from an aggressive war.
Our lives are harsh because we lack all the basic necessities of life. Everything has become scarce and unattainable. There is no food, no water, no medicine.
So, I ask you to help me keep my family safe and alive, especially after we had lost all our sources of livelihood.Please do not leave my family to struggle and suffer these difficult days alone. You can support my campaign by donating whatever you can or by sharing my posts to reach others who can help us survive the war to safety and peace. You are helping the lives of many people with your small contribution. Every donation makes a difference in our very difficult lives. But this is a legitimate campaign and has been checked by 90-ghost.

unfortunately I am unable to donate right now but I will share with my followers in the hopes that someone else can. ❤️
The thing I don't understand is when I say free Palestine, so many people think that means I hate the Israeli people. That I don't care if they die.
I care about the Israeli people.
I care about the Israeli hostages that were shot down by their own military.
I care about all Israeli hostages in general.
I care about the Israeli men being thrown in jail because they refuse to assist in the "war" around them.
I care about the Israeli people who don't support the genocide happening infront of their very eyes.
Even the Israeli people who do, I don't wish death upon them, or whatever hateful thing you think I do.
When I say free Palestine, I don't mean I hate the Israeli people.
When I say free Palestine, I mean Free Palestine
Heebie jeebies
