![VIDEO | "Six people have tried to jump off the [USS Lincoln]. The most recent was last Monday." Multimedia producer Andrew Brown has claimed there is a severe mental health crisis aboard the USS Lincoln, asserting that the Navy is actively quashing reports of the unfolding emergency. In a video published on Instagram, Brown highlighted extreme conditions facing the crew, stating, "They've been deployed a total of 271 days, 250 without a port of call. That's unheard of ... They have not been to port in 38 weeks." According to Brown, the crew is enduring severe supply shortages, moldy showers, and a lack of basic hygiene products like deodorant and toothpaste while eating poor-quality rations. He emphasized the severe psychological toll of the deployment, revealing, "Six people have tried to jump off that ship. The most recent was last Monday. When you have not touched land in 38 weeks, in over 200 days, things start to happen to you mentally."](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2087097895501566409/amplify_video_thumb/2087097799020015616/img/YbSvTkUdoYPVrD3b.jpg)

Friends of Palestinian content creator Medo (Mohammad) Halimy reported on social media that the 19-year-old has succumbed to his wounds after an Israeli airstrike on Gaza left him in a coma. Halimy made videos documenting his daily life during the genocide and was determined to keep planting everyday as part of his resistance against the occupation. He amassed over 200K followers across Instagram and TikTok. His last Instagram post, uploaded just two days ago, was a video showing his tent life in Gaza. In an interview with Fault Magazine in June, Halimy expressed his happiness over the support his videos received, “the most joy I get now is from the comments on my videos and the support from people worldwide. Seeing people recognize the truth and view the situation from an unbiased perspective is very uplifting.” “After this genocide is over, I will pursue my life dreams, no matter how long it takes—even if it takes 50 years. I aim to achieve so much that everyone will remember my name.”
