Can you imagine the rage and the devastation these expectant parents must feel? They have baby rooms decorated. They have baby clothes that they have to decide to either keep forever or eventually get rid of. They’ve been living in a happy, anxious, exciting whirlwind for the last nine months, and now that has been destroyed and they have to recover from that trauma in an active warzone.
Wherever you think those parents will place the blame for this–Hamas, the IDF, British colonialism, United Nations meddling, or all of the above–think of what the real, systemic victims look like. Think of how it feels to know that your sibling died and if they are ever memorialized, it will be one name among 10,000.
Hey remember when Israel was trying to cover up the fact that they were bombing hospitals by telling people Hamas bombed Gaza’s hospitals? Now they aren’t even trying to lie. They just bomb’em.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
TEL AVIV — Newborns and other patients at Gaza’s largest hospital are dying as power fails and resources run out, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry, which said at least 35 babies born prematurely face possible “death at any moment.”
Al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City has been “out of service” since Saturday morning, according to the ministry, as heavy bombardment and intense fighting outside the complex cause power outages amid a fuel shortage.
Dr. Marwan Abusada, a surgeon at the hospital who is also the head of international cooperation at the Health Ministry, said Saturday that one infant died “because we did not have electricity.” He confirmed the deaths of two more babies Sunday in a phone call.
The challenges for Gaza’s hospitals continue to mount: As fighting has intensified, ambulances have come under fire, power is going out, and dead bodies have piled up in an overwhelming surge of patients.
IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said at a briefing Saturday that staff members at Al-Shifa had “requested that tomorrow we help the babies in the pediatric department to get to a safer hospital.”
Dr. Mads Gilbert, a Norwegian doctor who has worked in hospitals in Gaza for years and is in Cairo, shared a photo that Abusada sent him during a rare moment of internet access.
The original article contains 1,067 words, the summary contains 216 words. Saved 80%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
But Israel said they delivered enough fuel for half an hour of electricity! There’s no way this should be happening! I’m so shocked!
Can we file with the Hague yet or do we have to wait for the genocide to be complete?
nobody in Israel will be tried at The Hague or challenged by the United Nations on anything
And don’t forget, they left the fuel outside the hospital in an active war zone.
But… you must start at October 7.
