EuroMed human rights monitor reports:

When the first groups arrived, Israeli tanks were already stationed in the area. Soldiers then used loudspeakers to command: “Raise your hands and walk in front of the tanks—those who want flour, come forward.” Around 200 civilians complied.

As they neared the aid trucks, Israeli forces suddenly opened heavy fire directly at their heads, instantly killing dozens. Others were left crawling, wounded, and bleeding. The massacre left 80 dead and over 520 injured, many of whom are in critical condition.

Notably, these attacks coincide with the peak of mass starvation across the Gaza Strip, where deaths from malnutrition are now documented and dozens have been hospitalised due to exhaustion and lack of food.

    We must stop dancing around this issue and use the proper language to describe Israel’s war on Palestine.

    1. This is not a “conflict”—it is a massacre.
    2. Starving people to death is genocide.
    3. Starving people is morally indefensible.
    4. Israel is a genocidal state, and its leaders must be held legally accountable for the deaths of innocent men, women, and children.
    5. All countries supporting Israel are complicit and equally accountable.
    6. News media outlets that remain silent or support Israel deserve condemnation.
    7. As civilians, we must treat this massacre as unacceptable and voice our horror to our representatives. If they refuse to act against Israel, they are pro-genocide.

    This is not a time for complacency. Enough deaths in Palestine.
    We must stop Israel’s genocidal government now.
