As Israel’s invasion of Rafah begins, people in Gaza are holding out hope that international pressure will force Israel to stand down. Part of that hope is tied to the heroic actions of students across the U.S. rising up for Palestine.
Israeli soldiers rounded up Ahmad Safi and his male family members in Khan Younis and made them stand atop a sand dune for 12 hours as the soldiers took cover behind them during a firefight with Palestinian resistance fighters. This is their story.

Netanyahu’s plans to turn Israel into a regional transportation hub connecting Asia with Europe has just suffered a major setback. The reason is the maritime and land blockade against Israel in response to its genocide in Gaza.
Israel is deliberately destroying the entire health sector in Gaza as only four hospitals remain operational. “If these hospitals stop working, they will turn into mass graves, like Nasser and al-Shifa,” Muhammad Zaqout, General Director of Hospitals in Gaza, told Mondoweiss.

As Civil Defense teams continue to unearth hundreds of bodies from the mass graves discovered at Nasser Hospital, Palestinians are flocking to the medical complex in search of their missing loved ones.
“Unprecedented terror” continues to haunt Palestinians in the Nur Shams refugee camp in the northern West Bank, two days after the Israeli army concluded a 52-hour-long invasion which killed 14 residents.
