Israel - Palestine conflict. 2023-24 misery and horror continues

My GF’s brother walked from Calais to Palestine over the summer and arrived about 10 days before all this happened. He’s out with people like the escort groups mentioned in that article, somewhere near Hebron, I think. We’re all hoping like hell he doesn’t get injured or worse.

I’ve noticed BBC seems to have become more careful about saying this explicitly since the Al Alhi hospital explosion.

Sadly, that event made it clear Hamas just pulls numbers out of the air which it severely undermines their credibility on casualty numbers.
