Gaza is no longer the largest open air prison in the world.. it’s the largest extermination camp in the world, financed and funded by the US government and run by Israel.

- موقف طريف حصل لي كفلسطيني في القاهرة. في احدى زياراتنا للقاهرة، قررنا انا وابن عمي زيارة القلعة. اشار علي ابن عمي ان نذهب لشباك تذاكر المصريين. فقلت ماشي، بس خليني انا اتكلم عشان لهجتي المصرية افضل منك. نرفز وقالي تعال اتفرج وتعلم. وقف على الشباك وقال للراجل بكل ثقة.. "مرحبا" 🤣
- Yesterday i was informed by our internet provider, via text message, that they will stop internet service within 48 hrs due to lack of fuel for generator to keep systems running. This might be my last tweet for the foreseeable future. Thanks a million for all your support & love.
- When Israels massacre in Gaza is over, we’re going to discover that the number of ppl killed is far greater than documented. A friend, the sole survivor of 8 ppl struck by a drone while talking to him at his doorstep told me that his friends buried the 7 without reporting to MoH.
- Situation in Gaza very ominous. Loads of people tweeting out of Gaza city in the past couple hours. They are bidding farewell, asking loved ones to forgive them. God protect Gaza & its people.
- A massive explosion just rocked the neighborhood. My daughters were shouting and crying hysterically. My wife told our 6 year old Zayneb: "don't cry my hero" Zayneb told her mom with tesrs running down her cheeks: "i am not a hero, i am scared". #GazaUnderAttack
- Israeli occupation air force bombed the factory of one of Gaza's most popular ice cream brands (Ma'atuq). But i guess that is to be expected, i mean we all know the genocidal tendencies of ice cream, and the danger it poses to Israelis!#GazaUnderAttack
- Just heard news from Gaza. 5 sweet elderly ladies of our extended family living not far from Al-Shifa Hospital were killed along with the 2 nurses taking care of them after the Israeli occupation army bombed their home. The youngest was probably 80 y/o and the eldest nearly 100.
- Israel banned the entry of fuel. This caused Gaza’s power plant to grind to a halt. Lack of electricity in Gaza is affecting water delivery, sewage treatment, & hospitals etc. People aren’t able to store fruits/veggies/meat coz fridges cant function on 2 or 3 hrs of electricity.
- The sole power plant in #Gaza will grind to a complete halt this evening due to lack of fuel. Needless to say, since its assault on Gaza, #Israel has banned entry of anything & everything into Gaza including fuel. Disastrous!#GazaUnderAttack
- Israel has been killing Palestinians for more than 7 decades, where was your voice? Israel has been stealing Palestinian lands for 7 decades, where was your voice?Israel has imprisoned & tortured hundreds of thousands of Palestinians over the past 7 decades,where was your voice?Hamas eskaliert die Gewalt. Ich verurteile die terroristischen Angriffe aus Gaza gegen #Israel aufs Schärfste. Gewalt & Raketen gegen Unschuldige müssen sofort aufhören. Israel hat unsere volle Solidarität & das völkerrechtlich verbriefte Recht, sich gegen Terror zu verteidigen.
- We are still alive. Registered deaths in the Strip has surpassed 7000. Bombardment from air & sea unrelenting. All 22 children in our group r very edgy & want to go home, some of them dont know they have no homes to go back to. We are all extremely drained mentally & physically.
- What is going on now is a normal response to decades of Israeli occupation & oppression. What Israelis are experiencing now does not even qualify as fraction of what Palestinians have been experiencing for more than 7 decades.
- We are physically fine. It has passed. The worst experience so far, and i have been through all Israeli assaults. This was beyond horrific for us. Thank you all for your concern & support
