Israel stopped water, food, fuel, and now destroyed the last of their hospitals. What a terrible world we live in, just watching genocide openly committed and doing nothing.

Israel has destroyed the last remaining hospital in northern Gaza.

We have witnessed the total decimation of Palestinian healthcare, met with silence from political leaders who refuse to acknowledge the horrors they have enabled.

This is the dehumanising reality of genocide.
