94-year-old Naifa Rizq al-Sawada, who suffered from Alzheimer's and was unable to walk or speak, was in her home in the vicinity of the al-Shifa Medical Complex in the west of Gaza City on 21 March when the Israeli military invaded stormed her home post-midnight and forcibly evicted her family at gunpoint, forcing them to leave her behind.
Yesterday, her sons who were able to return home after Israeli forces' withdrawal, discovered her home engulfed in flames by the Israeli army. Inside, they found her charred remains on her bed.
BTW... There was no Hamas at that time, not in Egypt not in any other place.
On this day, April 8, 1970, Israeli occupation forces’ aircraft bombed the Bahr El-Baqar primary school in Sharqia Governorate, Egypt, resulting in the martyrdom of 30 children and injuring more than 50 others as they sat in their classrooms.
Despite 54 years passing, the Bahr El-Baqar massacre will remain a testament to the criminality of the Israeli occupation state.
This year’s memory comes at a time when the mask has fallen from Israel in front of the world, and most of the world’s populations have learned that Israel is a state built on massacres.
The blood of the thirty martyred children has now returned to haunt you and to be a curse upon you at a time when you have lost the media war in front of the world.
في مثل هذا اليوم 8 أبريل 1970 قامت طائرات قوات الاحتلال الاسرائيلي بقصف مدرسة بحر البقر الابتدائية في محافظة الشرقية بمصر مما أدى إلى استشهاد 30 طفلاً وإصابة أكثر من 50 آخرين، بينما كانوا يجلسون في فصولهم الدراسية.
رغم مرور 54 عام عليها إلا أن مجزرة بحر البقر ستظل شاهدة على إجرام دولة الاحتلال الاسرائيلي، وتأتي الذكرى هذا العام في وقت سقط القناع عن دولة إسرائيل أمام العالم وعلمت أغلب شعوب العالم أن إسرائيل دولة قامت على المذابح.
دماء الثلاثين طفل شهيد عادت الآن لتطاردكم ولتكون لعنة عليكم في وقت خسرتم فيه الحرب الإعلامية أمام العالم.
‼️🇲🇽🇪🇨 Mexico has suspended diplomatic ties with Ecuador after Ecuadorian police forcibly stormed Mexico’s embassy.
🔹 Translation correction: Right after Roberto Canseco says “There is no basis to do it”, a journalist asks “Were there any previous warnings? Was it known that this could happen?”, to which Canseco responds “No, this is totally… it’s outside every norm.”

Mexican citizen here. I want to say that this was allowed to happened because Israel has set the antecedent that, if an embassy is attacked, international law won’t do anything.
🇮🇱🇵🇸
If it wasn’t obvious already that the Palestine genocide and all issues surrounding it are our problem as well, then I hope this clarifies that yes, what Israel does concerns us too. Israel marks hospitals as targets, so hospitals will be attacked in future conflicts. Israel marks embassies as targets, and so, our embassy was attacked.
And even if it didn’t affect us, and even if what Israel does had no effect at all outside of Palestinian territory, it is still our obligation as dignified people to support our palestinian brothers.
I stand with Palestine because I am Mexican. But above all, I stand with Palestine because I am HUMAN.

I really enjoyed Abigail, a horror movie that asks the question: "Are cops actually worse than immortal vampires who feed upon flesh?"
(The answer is yes!)
Everyone's performances were excellent, Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens stand out even amongst the rest of the group who all do a very solid and entertaining job.
I'd recommend seeing it for anyone who likes horror but doesn't take themselves super seriously (because it's silly sometimes!)
