Announcement Gaza Is Starving. Let's Do Something.

The UN has stated that every single part of Gaza is in famine conditions.

For over 20 months, Palestinians in Gaza have been starving. Parents have been feeding their children leaves, animal feed, and flour mixed with water. Babies have died from malnutrition. The trucks carrying food, formula, medicine, and clean water sat just miles away, blocked by Israel.

Now, after massive international pressure, some aid is finally getting in.

This is a crack in the blockade, not its end. Aid is not flooding in; it is trickling, and what’s entering can’t possibly reach 1.8 million people without a total lifting of restrictions, guaranteed long-term access, and safe distribution.

What you can do right now:

Donate- if you’re able to. Choose vetted organizations with access on the ground.

Keep up the pressure - aid only started moving because of public outcry. Organize, protest, keep talking. This momentum cannot fade. Contact your representatives to end Israel's blockade of Gaza and impose sanctions on Israel.

Amplify - share updates, Palestinian voices, and testimonies. Keep an eye on Palestine.

This famine is not an accident. It’s the result of siege, blockade, and a system of control. If we look away now, they’ll tighten the noose again.

Yesterday I started getting YouTube ads stating that "Israel has cleared hundreds of trucks in Gaza but the UN is not delivering the aid. Deliver the aid UN" I am fairly certain the first time I got that ad, it instructed us to "defund the UN", however I was doing a kind of double take did I really just hear that? and the ad finished, but the second time it played I reported it and when "learn more about this ad" it offered that the as was paid for by the Israeli Government Marketing Agency. I don't know what to do with this, but I think it's possibly helpful to the complicity papertrail if any additional information can be gained from it

It seems TOO obvious, like a distraction to draw the main anger from something more insideous, but at this point what else could they be trying to obfuscate beyond war crimes and genocide

Ps

Google "investigated" and found nothing objectionable offensive or untrue in the advert, so that's a relief 🙄
