The intensification of Russia's attacks on energy infrastructures and homes in Ukraine is causing large-scale suffering. With unprecedented loss of basic utilities, humanitarian risks are critical. A ceasefire and a human-centred peace are urgent to protect lives and dignity.

#Israel says #Palestinians will NOT be able to return to #Gaza through the crossing until the last hostage remains are returned from Gaza [if then]. #Egypt, which controls the other side, said the crossing would open only if movement goes both ways.

Once the last hostages’ remains are returned & #Israel releases more #Palestinian prisoners in exchange, the #US backed “ceasefire” plan is supposed to advance to the next phases, which call for creating an international stabilization force, forming a #technocratic “Palestinian” [ #Trump & #TonyBlair?] govt & disarming #Hamas.

Under the terms of the “ceasefire”, the long-closed #Rafah crossing is to be opened for medical evacs & travel to & from #Gaza. WHO says there are >16,500 sick & wounded people who need to leave Gaza for care.

It was not immediately clear when the border crossing would be opened, however, because of a dispute #Israel is having with #Egypt, which wants #Palestinians to be able to return to Gaza through the crossing.

For all you #GOP #isolationists, #Trump is putting #BootsOnTheGround

#US steps up presence in #Gaza to support fragile #ceasefire
The #USmilitary *led* “coordination center” charged with implementing Trump’s *peace* plan in Gaza is replacing #Israel as the overseer of *humanitarian aid* to the enclave, even as multiple people familiar with the cell’s first weeks of operations have described it as chaotic, indecisive & ineffective.

My mother’s health has worsened badly. She urgently needs to go to the hospital for treatment, but I can’t afford the costs. 💔
Her condition is critical — she can barely move, and we also need a wheelchair to take her safely.
I’m doing everything I can, but we urgently need help to get her medical care before it’s too late.
Please, if you can, help us or share this post. Every bit of support matters.

JFC how many soldiers & guns do you need to arrest a bunch of hippies? [I’m not using “hippies” disparagingly, just to underscore the point that these are peaceful humanitarians]
