First rain of the season in Gaza. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians are experiencing it in tents set up on the rubble of their homes following (and still during, as it has not yet ended) Israel’s genocide

If you’re wondering how a large portion of the over 1 million forcibly displaced Palestinians wash their clothes and shower while Israel has cut water and electricity supplies since 7 October. Good morning from Gaza

Guess who just turned 5? :) Tom has been with me for the past five years. This means he has survived with me two devastating Israeli wars on Gaza in 2021, the current one (so far, of course), and many other—less devastating—escalations and assaults. Since October 2023, he has moved with me between three shelters. There have been many days and weeks when I felt I was in a dilemma since I couldn’t find anything to feed him, especially during the first months of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. I shared with him my portion of the bread we managed to find and saved him some clean water when we used to count the sips of water we could have each day. The once unsociable cat, who hated strangers, was unable to understand why he was suddenly snatched from his calm home and taken to a shelter with around 70 strangers, including children, whose noise and energy left him anxious and paranoid all the time. The once-spoiled cat, who didn’t settle for less than chicken breast and fancy wet and dry cat food and used to turn his back to me whenever I tried to feed him less fancy food, had to eat bread wetted with water and white rice leftovers when he starved and realized this wasn’t another attempt from me to make him eat what I wanted. Despite all of this, I can’t help but feel ashamed to say that Tom was so privileged compared to the hundreds of Palestinians, especially children and elderly people, who either starved to death or died due to acute malnutrition and severe vitamin and iron deficiencies caused by Israel’s systematic starvation of the population in Gaza. I feel ashamed of myself when I give Tom half of my loaf of bread and then go to work to document another case where a mother helplessly watched her child starve to death, not because she didn’t have the money to buy him food, but because there was literally no food to buy as Israel imposed a deadly blockade on northern Gaza to force the population to the south. What I’m not ashamed to admit, however, is that I now eat the same food Tom once rejected for being “poor quality.” Before the war, I’ve never bought canned luncheon meat for him, knowing how harmful it could be for cats. But for the past year, that same canned food, part of international aid, which most of the time is low quality food and barely edible, has sustained us both. These days, Tom and I share the same can of luncheon meat. But after all, I’m proud of Tom now more than ever, the spoiled cat who has transformed from a loner into a social butterfly, now making friends with all the stray cats around the shelter :) I can’t wait for the day I’ll put him in his box for the last time and head north… HOME

Good morning from Gaza, where the first act of rebuilding after genocide is restoring the education and future of a generation they tried to break. These kindergarten students have just completed their school year. Over the past year, they still attended classes under Israeli bombardment, and their parents sent them to school unsure whether they would return home.. But none of this has stopped a people determined to protect its children’s future and preserve what Gaza has always been known for: one of the lowest illiteracy rates in the world.

A clearer recording of Israeli quadcopters emitting crying baby sounds in my neighborhood in Gaza at dawn. You’d think it’s a real baby, until the sound gets closer to your window, and you realize it’s another quadcopter, trying to lure people out.

I visited Khanyounis southern Gaza today following the withdrawal of Israeli forces Not a single home isn’t bombed, not one building isn’t scorched.. Walking through the neighborhoods, you cannot help but sense Israel’s palpable desire for revenge against an entire population

Shortly after a photo of a skeletal child in Gaza was widely shared by international media outlets, including BBC, CNN, and The New York Times, pro-Israeli voices claimed that his appearance was the result of pre‑existing health conditions We visited the family in their makeshift tent, where they showed us photos of the child looking chubby before Israel reimposed its blockade last March.

Live from what remains of the dialysis section at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, where all machines have suddenly stopped working due to a lack of water. The machines have been shut down for the day, and patients were sent home until the water tanks are refilled. Israel has destroyed around 90% of Gaza’s water wells and 80% of its water infrastructure, making access to water a daily struggle for both individuals and hospitals.

From Gaza's seafront Baqa coffee shop, bombed by Israeli occupation forces yesterday, a giant teddy bear lay on the ground. This was a birthday gift from a mother to her two-year-old daughter. Both were killed in the attack.
