Hamas: “We call on the mediators to pressure the occupation to abide by its pledges and open the crossings immediately, to ensure the flow of humanitarian aid and end the policy of collective punishment pursued by the occupation authorities against our people.
We affirm that these aggressive policies will not break the will of our people.”

️This video reminded me of what the Israeli soldiers did in my aunts house in the 2006 #Lebanon war :After the ceasefire was announced, she went to her home and saw the soldiers leaving her house and heading to the helicopter. She entered her home and found that the Israeli soldiers shat in her pots in the kitchen and pissed in jars and bottles.

Government Media Office Chief Salama Marouf:
We commend the grassroots and public campaign launched by the Kuwaiti Relief Society to rebuild Al-Nasr Children’s Hospital, and we salute all efforts that contributed to its success and achievement of its noble humanitarian goal.
The campaign’s success in raising $10 million within days demonstrates the eagerness of our Arab and Islamic nations, as well as free people worldwide, to provide aid, alleviate suffering, and bring smiles to the faces of our sick children.
We welcome all community and public efforts aimed at providing assistance and mitigating the effects of the genocide against our people. We urge the coordination of these efforts with relevant governmental institutions to maximize their impact and ensure they reach those most in need.
We emphasize that community and individual initiatives have played a crucial role in alleviating citizens’ suffering during the aggression, but they alone cannot erase the devastation or meet the immense humanitarian needs. A comprehensive reconstruction plan must be adopted regionally and internationally.
We call for an urgent international conference to rebuild Gaza, along with the implementation of the Arab reconstruction plan, especially the early recovery and emergency relief phases, including providing temporary shelter for 300,000 families who lost their homes.
We demand the lifting of the siege on Gaza, the opening of all crossings, and pressure to allow the entry of essential humanitarian aid and necessities required by our people.

BREAKING: Testimony from an Israeli soldier admitting to warcrimes and exposing how human shields are used regularly in the Israeli army.I saw that six military police (MPI) investigations were opened regarding the use of Palestinians as human shields, and I almost choked. I’ve seen cover-ups in my life, but this is a new peak. In Gaza, human shields are used at least six times a day. If MPI were serious about doing their job, they would have to open at least 2,190 investigations. But MPI only wants to be able to tell themselves—and the world—that they are investigating, so they found a few scapegoats and pinned the entire case on them.
I was in Gaza for nine months. I saw quite a few new procedures. One of the worst was the “Mosquito Procedure”: innocent Palestinians were forced to enter homes in Gaza and “clear” them—that is, check that there were no militants or explosives inside. We called it by various names—“Mosquito Procedure,” “Shawishim” (slaves), “Platforms.”
I first encountered it in December 2023, two months after the ground maneuver began. This was long before there was a shortage of Oketz unit dogs, which later became the crazy and unofficial excuse for this crazy and unofficial procedure. At the time, I didn’t realize how widespread it would become. Today, almost every squad has a “Shawish,” and infantry forces do not enter a house before a “Shawish” clears it. That means there are four “Shawishim” in a company, 12 in a battalion, and 36 in a brigade—at least. We are holding a layer of slaves, and MPI is trying to brush it off with six investigations.
I attended a meeting where one of the brigade commanders presented the “Mosquito Concept” to the division commander as a “necessary operational achievement to complete the mission.” It was so normalized that I thought I was hallucinating. Already in August, when Haaretz and testimonies to Breaking the Silence exposed this, a senior official said that both the Chief of Staff and the outgoing Southern Command General were aware of the procedure.
Six months have passed since the initial report, and soldiers continued to capture Palestinians and force them to enter houses and tunnels ahead of them. I waited to hear the Chief of Staff and the Southern Command General say something—it never happened.
The highest levels in the field have known about human shields for over a year, and no one has tried to stop it. On the contrary, it was defined as an operational necessity. It’s important to note that we can enter houses without using human shields. We did it for months using a structured entry procedure that involved deploying a robot, a drone, or a dog. That method worked, but it took time, and command demanded results now. In other words, we forced Palestinians to serve as human shields not because it was safer, but because it was faster.
Because of this, we endangered the lives of Palestinians who weren’t even suspected of anything—except for being present at the wrong time.
A fellow officer told me about an incident in his unit: in one of the houses a “Shawish” cleared, they encountered an armed militant. The “Shawish” was an elderly civilian (an innocent man), and when he realized he had made a mistake, he soiled himself in fear. I don’t know what happened to him—I was afraid to ask. That’s just one case, but it shows how the claims about “security” are a myth. These people are not professional fighters; they don’t know how to clear a house. The soldiers don’t trust them anyway, because they are there against their will. Sometimes, they are sent in just to ignite or demolish the house. This has nothing to do with security.
Almost every squad has a “Shawish,” at least 36 per brigade, with full knowledge of the command. We are holding hundreds of slaves, and MPI opened only six investigations.
I don’t want to think about the psychological impact this has on the people forced to walk into a house, terrified, instead of armed soldiers.
