These are just some of the horrors of this genocide and of Israel’s illegal occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. Tragically, not much is new.

You can also find it as a podcast episode below.
If you’re a Lithuanian speaker, I have another video, in Lithuanian, here.
See the Save the Children UK statement here.
UNICEF’s report here regarding 50,000 children killed or injured in Gaza.
Israel Katz’s announcement of building a ‘humanitarian city’ in Gaza here.
My episode on Israel being blacklisted by the UN for intentionally harming children in conflict.
Most importantly, find and support the work of Defence for Children International – Palestine here.
As always: stay strong, check on others, and keep your heart open.
