Journalist Saed Al-Zaneen reports that the occupation is dropping incendiary bombs—bombs which cause massive fiery explosions—on civilians in Jabaliya.
Saed and a group of fellow journalists were targeted by the IOF while working in the area, injuring 3 members of the journalist team.
To the south in Zaytoun, Gaza City (still in north Gaza), quadcopters, drones, and snipers firiring constantly in the area around Salah al-Din Mosque and Hariya/Freedom School. Anyone and anything that moves is targeted, leading to numerous casualties.

Fire belts continue to be laid nonstop throughout the entirety of northern Gaza
goddd this hit me so hard in the christianity questioning god feels. the finding god in a time of despair and then (what feels like) immediately losing him. when shes crying in the church,, when everyone at mass is so moved by songs... argh.
the theatre was kinda laughing at the parts when she tried to ask the men for sex, but honestly i was so sad because it just felt like another form of self-harm for her,, and GOD like . seeking out a form of physical comfort and then quickly realising what is Actually happening and everything hitting like a freight train. holy shit.
shin-ae's performance was so believable and moving, and the film really made me feel like one of her friends looking on, not knowing how to respond to her reactions. also her crying everywhere else BUT the funeral and then getting shamed for not crying??? goddamn
in the end i love how her least complicated friendships came from the one's outside of the church, i feel like it's good that way. that those people can just be there for Her and not try and guide her towards some light. they just wanted her company :((
يبدو أن الشيء الوحيد الذي نتقاسمه الآن هو الرغبة الشديدة في أنك يجب أن تكوني هنا وأن وجهك ينبغي أن يكون في مكان أقرب ما يكون إلى وجهي، انا حزين الليلة يا ميلينا والأشواق تملئ قلبي.
Multiple sources report that the occupation is using drones to fire on ambulances as they attempt to save people injured in the bombings. One family, the Al-Dahdouh family in Zaytoun, called emergency services to report that 16 of them are trapped under rubble after the IOF bombed their home. Emergency services cannot reach them due to the drone bombardment.
""I desire it much; nay, I will take no refusal. When your master, employer, what you will, engaged that someone should come on his behalf, it was understood that my needs only were to be consulted. I have not stinted. Is it not so?"
What could I do but bow acceptance? It was Mr. Hawkins's interest, not mine, and I had to think of him, not myself""
Simply looking at this quote from today's update tells us why it was well nigh impossible for Jonathan to heed the warnings of the locals. It was not just that he was an young orphan securing a deal at the very beginning of his career, but that he also felt a great sense of obligation towards his foster parent and employer. It is such social fealty and obligations that Dracula preys upon.
A Tomlinson hug can’t cure blindness
But a barricade moment reminds us:
Our hearts can perceive
Things our eyes cannot see,
Like love and compassion and kindness.
Been really pondering Fantoccio and the cursed citizens lately… like, if you’re stuck in a city for 15 years with some of your only company being these cursed globby versions of the people that used to surround you normally, you’d start to Notice Things that remind you of who they used to be, right?
Journalist Hossam Shabat reports near-constant bombardment by the occupation, concentrated around large congregations of civilians, particularly around shelter centers. The methodology is clear: force the population into clusters, then bomb them and wipe them out. This is a screenshot from footage Hossam took inside a shelter, as injured people from the shelter vicinity are brought inside to receive what little treatment can be offered. It cannot be overstated that the occupation is ruthlessly targeting densely-populated shelters, and there are innumerable injuries and deaths being reported.
