The 2023-2024 Gaza Massacre has continued now for nearly 4 months while the World looks on.

Freezing Aid to Gaza: Israel’s International War against the UNRWA
Imperilled, tormented Palestinians in Gaza had little time to celebrate the January 26 order of the International Court of Justice.

Last week, as the International Court of Justice heard South Africa’s case of genocide against Israel, we put the scale of the atrocities in perspective by visualizing how many buses it would take to carry the Palestinian children killed by Israeli forces in Gaza. We dedicated this visual to Dunia Abu Mohsen, whose first name […]
