On March 26, a clear, brisk night, Abdullah Sharif Atwi, Abdulrahman al-Shaar, Ahmad al-Shaar, Baraa Abu Qais, Hussein al-Shaar, Muhammad al-Farouq Atwi and Muhammad Ragheed Hammoud were in the second-floor hangout.

The Israeli drones hovered overhead, they had been going all day and now their sound was fading almost into the background.

The group was in high spirits, taking videos of themselves and joking about.

About half an hour after midnight, just into March 27, Israel hit the centre with an air strike, levelling the two-storey building.

Israel killed a total of 17 people in three different towns just that day, 10 of them medical workers.

    Yes many are recognizing Palestine and countries are sanctioning israel.

    This does not somehow absolve the US from its role as the most critical supporter of israel committing Genocide.

      Which countries have actually imposed a sanction vs simply removing their ambassadors?

      I know many EU countries are still “thinking” about it.

        The Maldives is banning all israeli tourists it’s on the front page right now. Turkey banned all trade. And that’s from the top of my head. There’s many more.
