Israel carried out a strike on a group of people in Jabalia, north Gaza, today at 3:40 p.m. local time. 54-year-old Waheeb Khalil al-Adham was killed and some others were wounded. As you can see, doctors were trying to save Waheeb’s life but couldn’t.

In 2010, I learned about the Khan Younis massacre through #JoeSacco’s Footnotes in Gaza. I carried the book on a trip to Gaza. At Erez, a UN official asked me to cover it-lest we upset the Israeli guards. How long have we normalised Palestinian massacres by keeping them unspoken?
Today marked the 70th anniversary of the Khan Yunis Massacre. On November 3, 1956, during the Tripartite Aggression against Egypt, Israeli forces killed hundreds of Palestinians in Khan Yunis. According to figures documented by UNRWA, 275 Palestinians were killed, including 140 refugees and 135 local residents. Just nine days later, another 111 people were reported killed in Rafah, bringing the combined reported death toll to 386. Palestinian survivors described horrifying acts of brutality: Israeli soldiers raiding homes, dragging men into the streets, separating fathers and sons from their families, lining up unarmed civilians against walls, and opening fire with machine guns. Witnesses also described bodies lying in the streets and grieving families unable to bury their loved ones because of military curfews. Palestinian historian Salman Abu Sitta recounts how Israeli soldiers rounded up men from Khan Yunis, including teachers, shopkeepers, farmers, and other ordinary civilians, and marched them toward the historic Barquq Castle. According to his account, soldiers lined the men against a wall near a school, ordered them to jump across a ditch, and opened fire with machine guns, turning the ditch into a grave. Palestinian historian Ihsan Khalil al-Agha documented a higher death toll, estimating approximately 520 victims of executions and other killings during the broader assault and occupation. Survivor testimonies also describe women being left to collect the bodies of their husbands, sons, and brothers and bury them in mass graves. The attached image shows some of the victims.

I hope you are all sleeping safely in your homes, surrounded by your families. I hope every child has warm clothes and every parent can provide the care their children need. I hope your children have umbrellas, raincoats, and rain boots for school. I hope your cities are prepared to respond to winter emergencies. Of course, sharing this news will change nothing for our families in Gaza, just as the warnings issued days ago changed nothing. Tonight, at 8:30 p.m., as families slept on the ground inside their tents, a massive landslide of soil and rocks buried at least two families in Deir al-Balah. The victims have been identified as: Habiba Hossam al-Zain, 4 years old Reem Hossam al-Zain Ibrahim Hossam al-Zain Salah Nabhan, 7 years old Mariam Nabhan The mothers of these five children remain in critical condition. The father of the first three children had already been killed by Israel. I hope everyone has heat in their homes.

I can't get over the scene. A little girl and her mother were buried alive under the sand after it collapsed onto the tents of displaced people due to the rains. #WeAreNotOkay

💢 BREAKING: A sand dune has collapsed onto tents sheltering two Palestinian families in Gaza following heavy rainfall. The bodies of two children have already been brought to Nasser Hospital. Israel and the @BoardOfPeace continue to block the entry of heavy machinery needed to rescue Palestinian families trapped in such disasters, while also blocking tents and mobile homes desperately needed for shelter.
Initial reports indicate that a sand dune has collapsed onto two families sheltering in a displacement camp in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, leaving several people trapped beneath the sand. The incident occurred following heavy rainfall across the central Gaza Strip this evening. Civil Defense teams have been alerted and are being contacted to launch a rescue operation.

By 9 a.m., reports of flooded tents at Gaza City’s port, west of Deir al-Balah, in Jabalia and Beit Lahia, north of Nuseirat camp, and in Al-Mawasi in Khan Younis were coming in. Help please: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…. Medical services reported that two people were injured when the rain brought down a wall of a building previously struck by the occupation. This is the toll of the first heavy rain on families who have been forced to live in worn tents and makeshift shelters. From North to South, people are waking up to soaked bedding, ruined belongings, destroyed shelters, and nowhere to go. Help The Sameer Project respond. Families who lost their shelter overnight need somewhere safe and dry today. Support our General Fund: chuffed.org/project/113222-t…

“Israel is pursuing and engineering death in Gaza. So do not be complicit.” Mahmoud Basal, spokesperson for the Palestinian Civil Defence in Gaza, addresses the world after the first winter storm tore through the Strip on November 7, 2026, saying his crews lived through every scene of families flooded out of their tents but had no equipment, no machinery and no means to help them. Within 12 hours, around 70,000 tents were flooded, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office, and dozens of walls of buildings already damaged by Israeli bombardment collapsed, injuring people, some of them seriously. Civil Defence and municipal crews say they could not pump out the water or open drainage channels because of fuel shortages and broken equipment. About ten rainwater suction trucks have been held at the crossings for a year as the occupation blocks their entry, and by August municipalities said they had received no fuel for their heavy machinery since March. Diesel has become so scarce and expensive that generator owners have resorted to burning cooking oil. This is the fourth winter Gaza’s displaced have spent in tents, and a year into the ceasefire the Israeli occupation still restricts the entry of tents, tarps, caravans and building materials. “Don’t make us say that our blood didn’t move you to act,” Basal says. “So how are these scenes supposed to move you?” Source: mahmoud_basal88 (IG)

Replying to @EU_Commission
الخارجية// تطلق نداءً عاجلاً إلى المجتمع الدولي ومؤسساته والمنظمات الإغاثية لإنقاذ غزة من كارثة إنسانية مع حلول فصل الشتاء، في ظل تدمير الاحتلال للبنية التحتية ومقومات الحياة واستمرار تعطيل جهود التعافي واعادة الاعمار. تدعو وزارة الخارجية والمغتربين لدولة فلسطين المجتمع الدولي، والأمم المتحدة ووكالاتها المتخصصة، والمنظمات الإنسانية والإغاثية الدولية، إلى التحرك الفوري والمنسق لإنقاذ أبناء شعبنا في قطاع غزة، ومواجهة الكارثة الإنسانية والبيئية المتفاقمة مع حلول فصل الشتاء، قبل أن تتحول إلى كارثة أوسع تحصد المزيد من الأرواح، وخاصة بين الأطفال وكبار السن والمرضى.وتؤكد الخارجية على ان استمرار الإبادة الجماعية والعدوان الاسرائيلي على قطاع غزة قد فاقم من الكارثة الإنسانية ومنع العمل على التعافي المبكر للشعب الفلسطيني هناك، حيث كشفت الأمطار الأولى، التي هطلت خلال الساعات القليلة الماضية، حجم الكارثة التي يواجهها المهجرون قسراً في قطاع غزة؛ إذ تسببت، وفق التقديرات الأولية، بغرق أكثر من 70 ألف خيمة تؤوي عشرات الآلاف من المواطنين، إلى جانب انهيار جدران ومبانٍ متصدعة بفعل العدوان والقصف الإسرائيلي، ووقوع إصابات بين المواطنين. ولم تكن هذه الأضرار مجرد تداعيات لمنخفض جوي، بل نتيجة مباشرة لجريمة الإبادة الجماعية والعدوان، وعدم تنفيذ إسرائيل، القوة القائمة بالاحتلال، أي من قرارات مجلس الامن وخاصة القرارين 2720، و 2803 بما فيها وقف اطلاق النار، وإدخال المساعدات والمساكن المؤقتة، بالإضافة الى انعدام الحد الأدنى من مقومات الحماية والإيواء، في ظل استمرار النزوح وتدمير البنية التحتية ومنع وصول الاحتياجات الإنسانية الأساسية.وأشارت الخارجية الى ما يواجهه نحو مليوني فلسطيني ظروفاً إنسانية قاسية، موزعين على ما يقارب 270 ألف خيمة ومواقع الإيواء في مختلف محافظات القطاع، فيما تشير التقديرات إلى أن ما بين 60% و85% من الخيام أصبحت مهترئة وغير صالحة للاستخدام، بعد نحو ثلاثة أعوام من الإبادة والتهجير القسري المتواصل. كما يعيش أكثر من 400 ألف نازح في مناطق شديدة الخطورة، معرضة للفيضانات وتجمع مياه الأمطار أو تقع بمحاذاة شاطئ البحر.وشددت الخارجية على ان المخاطر تتفاقم بفعل التدمير الواسع للبنية التحتية، ولا سيما شبكات الصرف الصحي وتصريف مياه الأمطار. وأضافت الى انه في الوقت الذي يواجه فيه النازحون هذه الظروف، يفتقر الأطفال وكبار السن والمرضى إلى الملابس الشتوية والأغطية والفرشات ووسائل التدفئة الآمنة، وسط انقطاع الكهرباء ونقص الوقود، الأمر الذي يجعل التعرض للبرد والأمطار تهديداً مباشراً لحياتهم.وأمام هذه المخاطر، تؤكد وزارة الخارجية والمغتربين أن المطلوب لم يعد يقتصر على إطلاق النداءات الإنسانية، وإنما الانتقال الفوري إلى تنفيذ قرارات مجلس الامن بما فيها القرار 2720 والقرار 2803، وتنفيذ إجراءات عملية وملموسة في مواجهة جرائم الاحتلال الاسرائيلي، وتطالب بما يلي: 1. الضغط الفوري على إسرائيل، القوة القائمة بالاحتلال، لفتح جميع المعابر وضمان تدفق المساعدات الإنسانية دون قيود أو تعطيل، وبكميات تتناسب مع الاحتياجات الهائلة لشعبنا، وضمان وصولها إلى جميع مناطق القطاع. 2. إدخال الوقود والمعدات اللازمة بصورة عاجلة لتشغيل مضخات المياه والصرف الصحي، وإزالة تجمعات مياه الأمطار والمياه العادمة، وتنفيذ تدخلات طارئة لحماية مخيمات ومواقع النزوح من الفيضانات. 3. تأمين احتياجات الإيواء الشتوي فوراً، من خلال إدخال المساكن المؤقتة، وخيام مقاومة للأمطار والرياح، وشوادر بلاستيكية، وعوازل مائية وحرارية، ومواد ومعدات إصلاح المساكن المتضررة والآيلة للسقوط. 4. ايصال الملابس الشتوية والأغطية والفرشات ووسائل التدفئة الآمنة الى المتضررين، وخاصة للأطفال والرضع وكبار السن والمرضى، لمنع وقوع وفيات بسبب البرد القارس. 5. إطلاق استجابة صحية ووقائية طارئة تشمل توفير الأدوية والمستلزمات الطبية والمياه النظيفة ومواد التعقيم، وتعزيز خدمات الرعاية الصحية، ومكافحة الأمراض والأوبئة المرتبطة بتلوث المياه وتدهور الظروف البيئية. 6. تعبئة وإدخال المعدات اللوجستية والفنية اللازمة لدعم البلديات والجهات المختصة وفرق الدفاع المدني والإغاثة، وتمكينها من تنفيذ تدخلات عاجلة لحماية المدنيين ومواقع النزوح. وتشددوزارة الخارجيةوالمغتربين على أن المجتمع الدولي، دولاً ومؤسسات، يمتلك الأدوات والإمكانات اللازمة للاستجابة والضغط على إسرائيل لتفعيلها دون إبطاء لضمان وصول المساعدات والمواد الإنسانية، وعدم السماح باستمرار حرمان ابناء شعبنا من أبسط مقومات الحياة والحماية. إن ترك مليوني فلسطيني في مواجهة الموت،والأمطار والبرد والفيضانات ومياه الصرف الصحي،دون حماية، ومأوى آمن أو احتياجات أساسية،يعني تعريض حياتهم لخطر يمكن تفاديه

مكثت تحت المطر ربع ساعة غادرتُ المكان وعدت للمكتب ولا زلتُ "أقطر" ماءاً وأرتجف من البرد! فكيف حال من لم يناموا منذ أمس وفقدوا "كل شيء" وجرف السيل خيامهم وملابسهم! أمطار غزيرة تغرق خيام النازحين وتقطع الطرق في غزة.. والمنخفض الجوي يفاقم معاناة آلاف العائلات تقرير: إسلام بدر

Keeping people—persons whose families were originally mainly from present-day🇮🇱—in tents on their own land after mass forcible transfers is in itself a war crime. The pain is immense. The messages many of us are receiving from #Gaza remind us of everyone's duty not to look away.

Meet the Israelis who just stole 8 homes from Palestinian families in Jericho. 1/ Rabbi Uzi Sharbaf, a mass murderer who shot up a Palestinian school while wearing a ski mask. Israel set him free. Now the Rabbi is stealing houses.
Rabbi Uzi Sharbaf. This one did a school shooting in Hebron, murdering 3 students and maiming over 30 more. Israel commuted his sentence. Now Rabbi Uzi Sharbaf is stealing houses.

I don’t know. It feels obscenely stupid to start posting videos of my loved ones in Gaza right now, as their tents flood with rainwater in the middle of the night, as they sleep in damp clothes on soaked mattresses, and to think for a f*cking second that these images might move someone to save their babies, to protect what little dignity they have left. As if this time could be any different from last year, or the year before that, or the year before that. As if people around the world, especially those with the power to do something, might suddenly be moved by a family’s tent flooding with rainwater when the sight of hundreds of babies whose bodies were shredded by Israeli bombs was not enough to put an end to this. How many more times must we expose the suffering of the people we love, strip them of their privacy in their most vulnerable moments, in the desperate hope that someone, somewhere, might finally care enough to act?

I admit that I completely broke down today. I cried uncontrollably. I couldn’t hold myself together after witnessing what I saw with my own eyes. Today, we went to film a journalistic report inside the displacement tents along the seashore. I swear, what we witnessed was beyond what any human being should have to endure. I saw men crying bitterly. Men I had never seen cry when they lost their children or when their homes were destroyed. Today, I saw them crying because they were powerless to do the simplest thing: protect their children from the water and the cold. We spoke to families who told us they had spent the entire night carrying their children in their arms after floodwater covered the floors of their tents and soaked their mattresses. They couldn’t find a single dry place to put their children. They couldn’t even give them a few hours of sleep. I saw children no older than five, without proper clothes to protect them from the cold, without heating, and without a dry place to sleep. Children shivering inside tents that cannot keep out the rain, protect them from the wind, or provide even the most basic sense of safety. What more must happen for this world to act? How much more suffering must people endure before someone remembers that they are human beings? I am sick of this world. I am sick of its hypocrisy and empty slogans. To hell with a world that talks endlessly about human rights while leaving children to drown inside their tents. To hell with everyone who has witnessed this suffering and chosen silence, and to hell with the governments and institutions that have the power to act but continue to turn their backs on us.
