[Excellent article]

"A second #Nakba is unfolding, not in secret, not whispered through trembling lips, not passed as rumours between fleeing survivors, but in the full, merciless light of day.

It is live-streamed. Captioned. Digitised. A genocide unfolding in high definition and real time.

This is no echo of 1948. It is its evolution. Its mutation. The same machinery of erasure, now upgraded, modernised, militarised, and globally broadcast.

More ruthless.

More unapologetic."

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — As pressure mounts to get more aid into #Gaza, #Israel appears to be changing tack and may let aid groups operating in the battered enclave remain in charge of non-food assistance while leaving food distribution to a newly established U.S.-backed group, according to a letter obtained by #TheAssociatedPress.

"Several Palestinians and soldiers told the #AP that #Israeli troops are systematically forcing #Palestinians to act as human shields in #Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for explosives or militants.

Younis Al-Khatib, president of the Palestine Red Crescent Society, told reporters in Geneva that Al-Nassasrah was spared after he pleaded in Hebrew and said his mother was a #Palestinian citizen of #Israel.

"What does Assad say in Hebrew? 'Don't shoot. I am Israeli.' And the soldier got a bit confused," he told reporters. "That confusion ... made him survive."

“The Worst It’s Ever Been”: #UK. Surgeon in Gaza Warns Kids Are Bearing Brunt as Israel Widens Assault

from #DemocracyNow!
May 22, 2025

We speak with Dr. Victoria Rose, a British plastic and reconstructive surgeon who has been on three medical missions to #Gaza since the start of #Israel’s war on the territory. She joins us from Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, where she’s been treating patients for over a week, and describes horrific injuries amid Israel’s ongoing bombardment, limited medical supplies and widespread malnutrition making it harder for people to heal. “Children are particularly taking the brunt of this,” she says.

Israel says it will allow ‘basic’ aid into Gaza after nearly 3 months of blockade

from #AssociatedPress #AP #APNews
Updated 5:30 PM EDT, May 18, 2025

DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — #Israel announced Sunday it will allow a limited amount of humanitarian aid into #Gaza after a nearly three-month blockade, days after global experts on food security warned of famine.
...
It was not immediately clear when aid would enter Gaza, or how. The #Israeli military body in charge of overseeing aid did not comment. Israel has been trying to impose a new aid system, despite objections by aid workers. #Netanyahu said Israel would work to ensure that aid does not reach militants.
