Palestinian boys shot in testicles as “target practice”
——
Dr. Nick Maynard of Oxford University Hospital says Palestinian boys in Gaza suffered gunshot wounds in their testicles done deliberately by Israeli soldiers.
"They admitted 4 teenage boys, 13 or 14 years old i think, who had all been shot in the testicles."
"The pattern of targeting specific body parts was something we all recognize within our own specialties.”
"It was a very stark pattern which could only have been explained by what i describe as target practice by the Israeli soldiers.”

🏠 Too many Disabled people face long DFG delays, unsuitable temporary accommodation, and no-fault evictions. We urgently need stable, genuinely #AccessibleHousing. @InclusionLondon
A Sky News investigation has found there is a severe shortage of homes suitable for those with a disability, leaving many across England in need of a safe place to live.
