In times of unstable #ceasefire, this #musknazi platform is not the place for me any longer. I'm leaving here some words by Franco Fortini, who in 1967 had to say this about the six-day war:

Even after the announcement of a ceasefire, reports indicate that the Israeli military is continuing to flatten the remaining residential blocks in northern Gaza, leaving displaced civilians with no homes to return to. Satellite images from January 2025 reveal widespread destruction in Jabalia, Beit Lahia, and Beit Hanoun, alongside expanding tent camps in Gaza City—highlighting the mass displacement caused by the recent Israeli ground operation in northern Gaza.
If a final ceasefire agreement is not reached, Israel will likely target Gaza City next with the same tactics of systematic destruction and displacement.

Children in Gaza are being starved at the fastest rate the world has recorded as of yet.
I think Israel may have broken every criminal record there was.

My eyes aren’t lying to me. I know I saw outrage and anguish when Russia bombed a hospital in Ukraine. I know I saw concern for human life.
And I know I saw none of that today as Israel massacred the al-Mawasi area in Gaza.
A sickening hierarchy of human life.

Israel claims that the poorly worded 24 May ICJ ruling gives it license to continue attacking Palestinians in Gaza, if it warns civilians to evacuate combat zones and move to safe 'humanitarian zones'. But we have geolocated three strikes within areas Israel suggested were safe.
