Isreli reserve soldier Eliran Mizrahi committed #suicide. He went through difficult experiences during a long military operation in the #Gaza Strip, was demobilized, diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, and was called under Order No. 8 back to the reserve in Rafah. On Friday, he committed suicide, and his father demands that he be buried in a military burial.

Millions of children trapped in Gaza, living under unimaginable horror, the trauma at such early age, is damaging them in a way one can't fathom. But then, there are those who try their best to do what they can to help making this living hell a bit less scary. The image, brought tears in my eyes, such a small act, can make a HUGE difference in the lives of children who have lost everything and living under a constant fear or bombs, explosions and dead bodies.

North #Gaza in the morning... Clowns emerge from the rubble. Children exclaim over the death that enters them from every door and window. Warplanes strike a target that is only a few hundred meters away from an entertainment carnival. Shrapnel falls in the middle of the joyous circle. The boys flee in terror. He calls out One of the young men told everyone: “Are we afraid of bombing?”
The transcendent wheat is shouted on the sickle with one voice: no

HOW, just HOW can we ignore such crime to go on?

Mission accomplished: World Central Kitchen halts operations in Gaza after strike kills staff

Another step on starving palestinians in northern Gaza with support and compliance of western and Arab leaders.

Attached image is from BBC covering the criminal attack against WCK positions. It wasn't a single attack, it was 3, it was deliberate, planned and sanctioned by IDF.

The fact BBC chosen to mention the hostages when covering a war crime comitted by #IDF goes along with their psyops to always play the "two side" story and keep their claims that this is a war of liberation not anhilation or #Genocide.

They conveniently chose not to mention #UNSC demand of ceasefire or #ICJ order to halt military operations. #BBC is complicit and supportive of the ongoing Genocide in Gaza, like almost all western media.

It is not from Ukraine, so do not expect anyone to believe her or western feminists to use her as symbol of Israeli crime of war.

Palestinians are being subjected to everything Israel lied about October 7, not once, not twice, but as a systematic and sanctioned policy protected by the IDF and members of the Israeli government.

UNICEF: Born into hell

This is a summary of what was said by UNICEF Communication Specialist Tess Ingram – to whom quoted text may be attributed - at today's press briefing at the Palais des Nations in Geneva

GENEVA, 19 January 2024 – “In the 105 days of this escalation in the Gaza Strip, nearly 20,000 babies have been born into war. That’s a baby born into this horrendous war every 10 minutes.

“This time last week, I was spending time with mothers at the Emirati Hospital in Rafah, the Gaza Strip.

“The day there was a welcome reminder of the strength of life amid the chaos of war. But it was also the most heartbreaking of the seven days I spent in Gaza.

“Let me give you four quick examples that speak to thousands of women’s experiences.

“Iman – ran, terrified, while eight months pregnant, through the streets of Gaza City when it was under attack. Now, 46 days after a cesarean she is hospitalised with a severe infection. She is too weak to hold her new baby Ali.

“Mashael – her house in the middle area was hit, her husband buried under the rubble for several days and then, her baby stopped moving inside her. She says she is sure now, about a month later, that the baby is dead. She is still waiting for medical care. She tells me it is best “a baby isn’t born into this nightmare”.

“Amal – buried under rubble during an attack while six months pregnant. The baby didn’t move for a week. Fortunately, baby Sama was born healthy the day before we met. But Amal is injured and sick and was preparing to take Sama home to a makeshift shelter on the streets of Rafah.

“And nurse Webda has performed emergency cesareans on six dead women in the last eight weeks. She tells me, “There are also more miscarriages because of the unhealthy air and smoke due to the bombing. This has happened more times than I can count”.

“The situation of pregnant women and newborns in the Gaza Strip is beyond belief, and it demands intensified and immediate actions.

“The already precarious situation of infant and maternal mortality has worsened as the healthcare system collapses.

“Mothers face unimaginable challenges in accessing adequate medical care, nutrition, and protection before, during and after giving birth.

“The Emirati Hospital in Rafah is now catering to the vast majority of pregnant women in the Gaza Strip.

“Struggling with overcrowded conditions and limited resources, staff are forced to discharge mothers within three hours of a cesarean.

“These conditions put mothers at risk from miscarriages, stillbirths, preterm labor, maternal mortality and emotional trauma.

“The trauma of war also directly impacts newborns, resulting in higher rates of undernutrition, developmental issues and other health complications.

“And pregnant and breastfeeding women and infants are living in inhumane conditions: makeshift shelters, poor nutrition, and unsafe water. This is putting approximately 135,000 children under two at risk of severe malnutrition.

“Let’s not forget, this is in the southern half of Gaza. Despite relentless efforts, UNICEF has been unable to access the north, where the situation is, incredulously, worse.

“Seeing newborn babies suffer, while some mothers bleed to death, should keep us all awake at night. Knowing two very young Israeli children abducted on the 7th of October have still not been released should also keep us awake.

“In the time it has taken me to present this, another baby was likely born, but into what? Like Amal, will they be returning to a makeshift shelter. Nervous that the water is going to make their baby sick? Worried about what the baby will eat?

“Becoming a mother should be a time for celebration. In Gaza, it's another child delivered into hell.

“Humanity cannot allow this warped version of normal to persist any longer. Mothers and newborns need a humanitarian #ceasefire.”

110 days. Tens of thousands of dead, over a million displaced, 132 kidnapped held in the Strip since October 7. The horrors don't stop for a moment and there is no light at the end of the tunnel.

Every additional day that passes means another loss and another destruction.

#Israel and #Hamas already proved that they are not going to act according to law and take the citizens out of the fighting circle.

We must ceasfire - now!

Wall Street Journal: #Israel Agrees to Delay Invasion of #Gaza So U.S. Can Rush Missile Defenses to Region

— "Israel has agreed, for now, to a request from the U.S. to get its air defenses in place to protect U.S. troops in the region ahead of an expected ground incursion into Gaza, U.S. and Israeli officials said.

The #Pentagon is scrambling to deploy nearly a dozen air-defense systems to the region, including for U.S. troops serving in #Iraq, #Syria, #Kuwait, #Jordan, #SaudiArabia and the United Arab Emirates, to protect them from missiles and rockets. U.S. officials have so far persuaded the Israelis to hold off until those pieces can be placed, as early as later this week.

Israel is also taking into account in its planning the effort to supply humanitarian aid to civilians inside Gaza, as well as diplomatic efforts to free more of the hostages held by #Hamas, officials said."

After the AFU made a rapid breakthrough towards Krynki, Russian troops counterattacked with the support of artillery and aviation. They were successful in squeezing the AFU out of a significant part of the positions in the village.

▪️ Despite this, the enemy still maintains a presence, but the Russian Armed Forces have managed to clear several landings, effectively pushing the AFU to the shore.

▪️ However, during the night, the command of the Katran strike group transferred additional units to the islands of Melky and Frolov. They were covered by mortar crews from the 35th infantry regiment.

🔻Additionally, four assault groups from the 88th battalion of the 35th infantry brigade of the Ukrainian Navy were transported from Nikolskoye to the northeastern part of Aleshkinsky Island. There, they dispersed and set up observation posts.

▪️ Another advance group from the 36th brigade arrived at the railway bridge. Together with the forces of the 35th Infantry Brigade to the east, they are planning another attempt to break through to Peschanivka and Podstepnoye.

❗️It seems that despite their losses, the enemy plans to continue pushing through the defenses of the Russian Armed Forces on the left bank. Based on the activity of the Marines in both the Krynok sector and at Peschanivka, it is likely that they are coordinating their attack to capture a larger settlement, such as Radensk.

Russian Army is slowly advancing west of the town of Krasnohorivka/Красногорівка towards the railway that goes to Avdivka. "Significant advances" is a very relative term, as every advance there is costly. However, it seems that a new change of strategy is being followed by the troops after the big casualties during the first days. Similar happen in the southern axis in which Russians are slowly but steadily advancing around the quarry northwest of Opytne.

Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Jordan: Patriarchate of #Jerusalem: Israel aims to bomb church institutions that provide humanitarian services in #Gaza

— "The Holy Orthodox Patriarchate of the Roman Catholic Church issued a statement in which it denounced, in the strongest terms, the Israeli bombing of one of its church buildings in Gaza City.

The Patriarchate affirmed in her statement that the targeting of churches and their institutions, as well as the shelters they provide to protect innocent citizens, especially children and women who lost their homes as a result of Israeli shelling of residential areas over the past thirteen days, constituted a war crime that cannot be ignored.

The Patriarchate stressed that it would not abandon its religious and humanitarian duty deriving from its Christian values to provide all that is needed in times of war and peace alike."

#Israel on Monday cut off #electricity, #food, #fuel and #water (F24 'forgot' medicine and medical equipment) from the #Gaza Strip.

The humanitarian situation in #Gaza has deteriorated drastically, but the 2.3 million #Palestinians there have nowhere to flee to.

PS. F24 also failed to mention that Israel bombed the only way out of Gaza. Rafah border to Egypt today. But who am I to correct a respectful world news media /Farhad
