A young boy in Deir Al Balah details his experience of having his hearing aid device broken by the occupation forces. He recounts the events of being forcibly displaced to Deir Al Balah with his mother. He was tripped, made to take his clothes off in a room before being sent to Deir Al Balah with a broken hearing aid. After losing the ability to talk with his siblings and uncles, his mother taped his hearing aid back, which she describes as an event that gave life back to him.

Inside the mass Graves that were uncovered at Nasser Hospital, Khan Younis, Gaza, they found children and babies who had their hands bound with zip ties.
that’s how long they were supposed to have. Two weeks to run. Two weeks to hide. Two weeks to escape “evacuate” Rafah. And go where? I don’t know. But somewhere. And now they have no time left. Israel is bombing Arafat right now. There are over a MILLION people crammed into that city and if Israel has its way, none of them are making it out alive. So. This may be your last chance. If you haven’t spoken up until now, do it. Reblog this, go to the tags and reblog other posts. Share photos of Hind, of Rafah, of the humanitarian nightmare that is Gaza right now. Because they want your backs to be turned. They want you to worry about halftime shows and Taylor and Travis and all the other inconsequential things. So turn around and look them in the eyes and make them answer for what they’ve done. And don’t let them get away with it again.

Israel has killed 14,350 Palestinian children between October 7 and April 4. This means children account for 44% of all Palestinians killed in Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) said in a press release ahead of Palestinian Children’s Day. Women and children constitute nearly 70% of over 7,000 additional persons missing in the same period, and the majority of the over 75,000 wounded Palestinians are women and children. Out of a total of 455 Palestinians killed in the occupied West Bank by the Israeli forces in the same period, 117 were children. Over 17,000 Palestinian children have also been orphaned or separated from their parents as a result of Israel’s genocidal attacks, according to UNICEF data, after either both or one of their parents were killed in the Israeli bombings and ground offensives since October 7.
"Nihal Abu Ayash, 16, was reportedly the 100th Palestinian child to be killed in the West Bank since Hamas’s 7 October attack"
it was a murder.
