🚨Israeli forces are “playing around” by firing on civilians in Gaza‼️ 13 year old Amir Imad Al-Bashiti has been killed after succumbing to a neck injury caused by Israeli gunfire in southern Khan Younis, southern Gaza, yesterday.

🇮🇱Israel bombed a clearly-marked journalist live on air! Press TV correspondent Hadi Hoteit was wounded by an Israeli drone strike on Monday while reporting in southern Lebanon, clearly identified as a journalist. He was filming in an open area at the Arnoun–Yohmor–Kfar Tebnit roundabout, wearing a press vest and helmet, with press markings on his car and his Press TV microphone in hand, when the strike hit the spot where he was standing rather than his vehicle. He says the targeting was deliberate, noting that he had stepped away from the car and that the drone struck his position directly. Six pieces of shrapnel hit his body, one in the right chest, three in the right leg and two in the left, and he was taken to Al-Najda Al-Shaabia Hospital in Nabatieh, where he underwent surgery and is now recovering. Two men reached him to carry him out only after fifteen to twenty minutes, as he tried to move away from the car fearing it would be struck again. The attack on Hoteit fits a pattern that has made covering Israel's genocides one of the deadliest jobs in the region. The Committee to Protect Journalists says Israeli occupation forces have killed at least 260 media workers since October 2023, most of them Palestinian journalists in Gaza, and the toll in Lebanon has continued to climb. Al-Akhbar correspondent Amal Khalil was killed and photographer Zeinab Faraj wounded in an April drone strike near Al Tayri, in what Lebanon called a double violation for also obstructing rescue efforts; a former al-Alam correspondent, Hussam Zaidan, was killed in Sidon in May; RT's Steve Sweeney and his cameraman were wounded near Al-Qasmiya in March, all while wearing press insignia. The strike on Hoteit came just a day after a US-brokered understanding meant to end the fighting, as Israeli attacks on southern Lebanon carried on regardless. Deliberately targeting journalists is a war crime under international humanitarian law, and the repeated wounding and killing of clearly marked press in Lebanon and Gaza points to a pattern that rights groups say demands independent investigation and accountability. @HadiHtt @press

One year ago today, the occupation took Mosab Ali from us. Targeted and killed him as he was sourcing aid. It was one of the darkest days in The Sameer Project's brief history. We lost far more than a colleague. We lost a leader, a calming presence in moments of chaos, a trusted friend, a moral compass, and a beloved member of our family. Mosab lived a life of service. He cared deeply for his people and carried himself with humility, kindness, and unwavering faith. He feared God, loved God, and dedicated himself to serving others. Even from his own salary, he would set aside money to help feed families in his neighborhood. He cared for his family with devotion and treated every resident of our camps as an extension of that family. To know Mosab was to witness compassion, honor, respect. He listened more than he spoke. He comforted others before thinking of himself. He believed that dignity, mercy, and community were not ideals, but responsibilities. Mosab was also a dreamer. He dreamed of a better Gaza - founding our partner organization, TechMed, out of concern for the mental health of his people going through a genocide. He was going to make a better future for children. Those dreams did not die with him. We carry them with us every day. We miss him beyond words. We miss his wisdom, his laughter, his patience, and his presence. But we honor him in the way he would have wanted: by continuing the work, caring for our people, and refusing to give up on the future he believed was possible. May Allah have mercy on our beloved Mosab, accept him among the righteous, and grant him the highest levels of Jannah. You are gone from our daily sight, but never from our hearts.

“His body was ripped to pieces,” - that is how loved ones are informed of the martyrdom of a Palestinian in Gaza. And this is how Mosab’s team were told about his killing. Today marks a year from the time that the military occupation murdered our beloved Mosab. He was in the car going to look for flour during the famine to feed the patients in The Sameer Project camps. And in a second, the colonizers took him away from us. This article on substack is written by one of our cofounders, Hala Sabbah, where she talks about the difficulties in making choices during a genocide. And how the murder of Mosab brought her work to a halt. A loss too big to fathom. Read more here: open.substack.com/pub/thesam… Pray for Mosab, a man who dedicated his life to helping others. A martyr who gave his life for his country. May he rest in power.

Murdered in a cafe by a flying robot.

Israeli drones targeted me while I was clearly filming a report in an open space with all requirements (press signs on the car, vest and helmet with press signs, cellphones open and not doing anything else. I was told that Lebanese army was blocking the road somewhere, so i went there searching for where the Lebanese army is. I stopped at Arnoun-Yohmor-Kfartebnit roundabout because i didn't want to go further. I got outside my car, with my cameras in the cage and my microphone with PressTV logo. I was filming when the Israeli drones deliberately attacked where I was standing, and not my car. Two brave men were able to come to my rescue after about 15 to 20 minutes. I was trying to get away from my car as I was expecting they might retarget it. 6 shrapnels hit my body (1 right chest, 3 right leg, 2 left leg). I am better now. Targeting journalists is a war crime. I wish if any international legal side was able to benefit from this video to Glory to the resistance, our only hope in front of those zionist criminals.

Palestinians in Gaza need nutritious food. Their immunity systems are low and deficiencies are increasing. And sadly, The Sameer Project donations plummeted and all we can provide is rice meals now. Please help here: chuffed.org/project/help-us-… A famine intentionally designed in Gaza is imposed by the military occupation. Families like this need nutritious meals for their sick son and the food is available but not affordable. Less than 20% of needed trucks are allowed in and most of the trucks are commercial. Junk food is allowed in in large quantities while vegetables and meat are allowed in in small quantities. One kilo of meat is around $18 so if we want to cook a few thousand meals, The Sameer Project would need hundreds of thousands of dollars a month. And the reality is we are making less than 50% of what we used to before the “ceasefire.” On June 10th, the Translating Falasteen x The Sameer Project team gave out 495 meals of rice and vegetables to Quds Camp in Tal Al Hawa, Gaza City. 80 families got a meal for the day thanks to your support and the total cost was $820, including the 11% commission.

RT @SMohyeddin: Israel killed her father and brother today. Her father was a nurse in Al-Shifa Hospital. Not a single day has gone by since…

The #certain neighboring countries which are witnesses to these crimes against our kin in Gaza are failing to fulfill their responsibility. Yes they have a responsibility to protect the people of Gaza. It is never too late to act.

Father’s name was Mohammad al-Habeel. The son’s was Mossa. That’s when they were alive 💔💔💔💔

🚨UPDATE : Nurse Mohammed Al-Habil and his son were killed in an Israeli strike targeting the roof of their home in the Abu Iskandar area of Sheikh Radwan, north of Gaza City.

Teacher Suhad. 🤍 She teaches math, but what she really gives is steadiness. She shows up every day, erases the pain from her face, and fills her students with numbers and confidence. She lost her husband in the war but she did not lose her purpose. In every equation she writes on the board, in every problem she helps a child solve, she builds a future that grief could not take from her. Suhad, you are strength in its truest form. We see you. We honor you. And we are so proud to stand beside you. #WeWillReadAgain

في يوم توقيع الاتفاق بين أمريكا وإيران، هاجمت إسرائيل الضاحية الجنوبية لِبيروت . بيان مشترك لنتنياهو ووزير الدفاع يسرائيل كاتس: "بناء على توجيهات نتنياهو ووزير الدفاع يسرائيل كاتس، شنّ الجيش الإسرائيلي قبل قليل غارات على أهداف تابعة لحزب الله في منطقة الضاحية الجنوبية لبيروت، وذلك ردًا على إطلاق الحزب النار باتجاه الأراضي الإسرائيلية. إسرائيل لن تتسامح مع أي إطلاق نار على أراضيها .

Since I started my work in the field of human rights in 2014, I have submitted my resignation multiple times after each Israeli offensive on Gaza. After having done my duties as a human rights advocate and -before anything else- as a human being, I fell into depression resulting from desperation over international inaction towards war crimes, and for weeks, sometimes even months, I felt we were screaming into the void. I was known for submitting resignations after each attack until it turned into a joke at the organisation and among my colleagues. As we move to close the physical space of our Euro-Med Monitor (@EuroMedHR) Gaza office, fearing for the safety of our staff following an escalating Israeli campaign in retaliation for our documentation of Israeli abuses, and most recently the release of our report on sexual violence in Israel’s places of detention, I came across this message sent by my manager on the morning of 7 October 2023. Jokingly, he said: “I’m telling you from now, your resignation will be rejected,” and then followed it with another message: “If you stay alive, of course" I sent him the screenshot this morning, reminding him that I “happened to” stay alive, but that, bizarrely, I haven’t submitted my resignation, not during the genocide, not following the ceasefire agreement, and not even now, as an Israeli incitement campaign is escalating. While the world was looking away as a genocide was being livestreamed on their screens, I questioned the point of our work countless times. As I quietly recited the Shahada (the statement of faith before death) each time I entered a school to document testimonies, I questioned whether the world actually deserved more evidence to finally acknowledge that the target was everything called Palestinian, not just a certain political or armed group. I had so many existential questions, but, to my astonishment (and that of my colleagues), not even once did I submit my resignation. With each human rights defender, activist, or journalist targeted, I came to realise more and more that something about them was annoying the perpetrators. And for the first time in my life, I found a purpose in what I want to be; that if I couldn’t stop war criminals, I want to live the rest of my life annoying them. As we close the door to our beloved Gaza office, we have finally, more than ever, found a purpose in continuing what we do by all means, under all circumstances.

ISRAEL has KILLED at least 809 ATHLETES in Gaza since October 2023. Why is Israel still allowed to participate in any kind of sport?

Suleiman Obeid, known as the “Pelé of Palestine,” was killed by an Israeli tank while standing in line trying to secure food for his five children.

For months, Israel refused to let Habiba evacuate as her limbs withered away. She lost 3 limbs because of Israel. Thousands of injured children and cancer patients are still refused treatment or evacuation by Israel. Issuing mass death sentences without firing a single bullet.

The beach is the escape in Gaza, and The Sameer Project team took the kids from our Gaza team camp to a fun day at the beach! Give to our fun days: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… Summer is here and The Sameer Project would love to do entertainment days and fun activities for children in different displacement camps. However, the drastic drop in donations has stopped us from doing these entertainment days. Your support would allow us to plan beach days, pottery days, drawing contests, kite-making workshops, music classes and so much more! Children in Gaza need these spaces to be creative and find some joy. Help fund our fun days by donating to the General Fund today: chuffed.org/project/113222-t… Other ways to donate include: paypal.me/mahertali (Paypal option, please make sure to add a message saying "Activities") account.venmo.com/u/Maher-Al… (Venmo option, please make sure to add a message saying "Activities")
