624 days of burn*d babies on our phone screens.

Hi ,

I hope you're having a blessed week so far.

This morning, I woke up to yet another burned child from Gaza. The man holding the little boy looked like all the life had been sucked out of him. He didn't know where he was. He kept on repeating, "what is the fault of this boy!" 

Yesterday, I learned about a mother named Lina who burned so viciously that her body was left with barely any skin to protect her. Just 30 minutes later, I saw a toddler named Ahmed. He was born into the open-air prison that is Gaza, starved for two months, and then left this world. He didn't even get a chance.

Every single day, our page gets a collaboration request from a journalist in Gaza to co-share a video of a new malnourished baby that needs evacuation. 

Babies like Ahmed are dying as the occupation continues to block baby formula and essential nutrients needed for them to grow.

Babies are dying as the occupation continues to bomb every so called 'safe zone' in Gaza.

I'm not sure what else to say. 

I still cannot fathom that we are here, 625 days later. That Palestinian parents have been holding the bodies of their killed children for over seven decades.

A new study published on the Harvard Dataverse by researcher Yaakov Garb in which he analyzed IOF military population estimates shows a drop in the Palestinian population from 2.2 million to just under 1.85 million.

377,000 Palestinians are missing and unaccounted for. They are people in northern Gaza who have endured the heaviest bombing, residents in the Rafah's eastern district which is flattened, families in zones of total communication blackout, killed families, and families under the rubble.

This is a genocide. It must be stopped.

Today, we donated $97,000 to Gaza.

The money will be used by Pious Projects to purchase food within Gaza and then distribute it to families for free. Food is scarce making the price astronomical as survival is the only thought on the minds of the Palestinians in Gaza.

Thank you for making that possible. It's only because of you that we are able to continue feeding starving families there. You are the answers to the people's prayers.

Recently, we witnessed 12 brave souls aboard the Freedom Flotilla attempt to break the siege. Even though they were stopped, arrested, and deported, they still carried something powerful, hope.

They reminded billions that Gaza is not forgotten. They reminded us all that this good fight to end the genocide has not ended.

We need to stay hopeful. Keep doing your part in making others feel hopeful too.

The more we speak, as one human family, the more we push each other to stay loud and continue on.

Palestine will be free. Keep pushing.

 

Peace and blessings,

 

Murad
