In Gaza, Israeli forces are continuing their new ground invasion of the southern city of Khan Younis, where thousands of people are fleeing airstrikes and heavy artillery fire. At least 84 Palestinians were killed over the past day, with more than 300 others wounded. Medical staff at the Nasser Medical Complex report they are completely overwhelmed and have been forced to treat patients on hospital floors. Relatives gathered outside the hospital Monday to mourn the dead. This is Ahmed Sammour, who lost his infant child and several relatives when an Israeli airstrike destroyed the home where they were sheltering.

Ahmed Sammour: “We are tired. We are tired in Gaza. Every day our children are martyred. Every day, every moment. This is the blood of our children. It has not yet dried. … No one told us to evacuate. They brought four floors crashing down on civilians.”

And in a normal world, the international community would be calling on Gaza to release the hostages and surrender, lest the get more damage and more dead. They are given no agency for their own actions. They are infantilized by the world.

and sent to Israel.

I hate that America supports this country.
It is no longer a Democracy defending itself.

I hate that the opinion of the International Court of Justice is being ignored.
