Hey everyone, this is Bisan from Gaza. I'm still alive but Hind is not. Do you remember Hind Rajab? This seven (7) years old child who was missed 12 days ago. Hind was in a car with five (5) family members and they were all killed - except Hind - by an Israeli bomb, and then she called the Ambulance, she asked them to rescue her. Two Ambulance men from the Red Crescent tried to do this but they were also missed. Now; today they were found killed. The body of Hind found killed, found murdered. It's just a new massacre added to the list of endlessly massacres committed by Israel against my people; Palestinians in Gaza right now.

No one holds Israel accountable until now. No one is doing anything. Hind was killed. Who is the next? I don't know, it might be any one of us, but I mean, it's a new, it's a new massacre - she is murdered. You all heard her story, you all heard her voice asking for help saying (Bisan speaks in Arabic first then translates to English the following) "take me with you, take me from here". She was between dead bodies for days, alone and no one could rescue her. We knew where she was, we knew that she was okay, we knew that she could contact the Red Crescent but no one rescued her.

There really is nothing left to say.

I genuinely feel disgusting. All the love and support I could give, the donations, the spreading of awareness, all of it--and none of it could save this child. I've listened to audio of her begging to be rescued, of her telling the operator that she's afraid of the dark. All of it has done nothing, because she was still killed. The Red Crescent paramedics who tried to save her were literally targeted by Israeli forces on arrival. Deliberately. On purpose. I know we have to keep talking about this, I know there's no end to this until Palestine is free--until Palestinian children stop being liberally massacred like this--but I just had to lament the fact that this child's death won't be enough to the world. It has never been enough. This isn't the first and it won't be the last, and there's really no telling when these deaths--of these children, these human beings who didn't get the luxury to live like you and I do--will be enough. It should never have come this far. But it has, and it continues to go even further.

Children shouldn't have to die to get the world to wake up to begin with--but the fact that they do and yet it still does nothing is a cruelty on a whole other level.

still absolutely cannot wrap my head around how ppl are not condemning the iof and calling for a permanent ceasefire even after the news broke out about hind. she was six years old. trapped inside a bombed car where five of her relatives are martyred. iof tanks laid siege on a six year old girl calling her mom for help. because she was scared and alone and starving. iof waited until the paramedics came to save hind and killed them all. remember hind. remember yousef. remember ahmed. death to israel. ceasefire now.

Shout out to 80s movies which have shots of women’s vanity counters that are just piled with lots and lots of stuff. Gotta be one of my favourite genres.
