    I really do wonder how much of Gaza and its people are left standing and alive? Like what the real numbers of deaths are as the fog of war makes it so hard to really know. I fear once the world really reacts it will be too late. Maybe already is. So upsetting. All the wars are upsetting to me and so unnecessary.

      Targeting the hospitals was a deliberate tactic to make this kind of information harder to reliably gather and disseminate.

        Targeting journalists and UNRWA was also a deliberate attack to suppress the information going out of Gaza and also to cause the biggest possible suffering to the civilian population.

          I feel its also important to note that they target more than just the journalists themselves, they also target their families. It’s really is staggering how deep the depravity goes.
