🧵What’s happening in Gaza: Palestinians are protesting bc, ya know, they live in an unlivable prison. Israeli snipers fired live ammo & Ruger bullets used hit legs that will then need to be amputated. 41 people were wounded, including a 13-year-old child in critical condition.
According to Israeli military sources, they refrained from “heavy fire” for sake of women & children. The Ruger bullets were used as “non-lethal crowd dispersal” because they are more likely to maim than kill. If you aren’t sickened enough yet, I can keep going ☹️
In case you forgot, 2 million people are trapped in Gaza. 97% of the water is undrinkable. Electricity is intermittent. In May, Israel bombed homes, medical centers, infrastructure. It’s been 3 months w/out reconstruction aid. 50% of Gaza’s population are children under 15.
