CRITICAL CONTEXT TO SHARE:

• Palestinians in Gaza face more and more deadly conditions of Israeli bombs backed by Western erasure & political greenlighting, the worst ever. By "genocide in Gaza" we mean: there is no fuel, no water, no food, no Internet, and nowhere to escape.
• Hospitals are running out of electricity and fuel. The Red Cross said "hospitals are going to be turned to graveyards" and all 13 hospitals in Gaza are only partially operations. Many healthcare workers have been killed by Israel.
• Human rights workers are fleeing for their lives and unable to document the scale of the carnage.
• Many Israeli ministers have issued open calls for genocide. Israel and the US are planning a massive forced displacement larger than the 1948 Nakba (Catastrophe) when Zionist militias ethnically cleansed Palestine. Israel is also planning a ground invasion and continues a total blockade and persistent bombing of hospitals, schools, residential buildings, and the crossing to Egypt.
• Democracy Now has interviews with Palestinians in Gaza experiencing this ongoing atrocity.
