1/ Here is a thread🧵 showing the current contradictions of life in Gaza City.

We start with the story of the family of Snounu Restaurant. The family home was destroyed by IDF. The residents were given warning, and a day to evacuate. All the family is safe and unharmed. And as testiment to the resilience of Gazans, yesterday they were hosting a birthday party in the restaurant.

1/ 2 August 2025, the children of the Gazan al-Sultan family, Wisam, Fathi, Mira and little Taymour put on their best clothes to go to school and get their report cards.

They go to a private school in Gaza City, but their mother says they've studied online for parts of the school year, because they were displaced.

On their way home, they see aid being airdropped from planes.

As you can see at the end of the video, there are names of IDF soldiers written in Hebrew on the wall of their living room, above where the soldiers must have slept.

I know what you are thinking, but no, this family is not a Hamas family. Read their story in the 1st comment + links.

#TheGazaYouDontSee 2/ The story of al-Sultan family is well-known in Gaza. The father, Dr. Tamer al-Sultan, was a pharmacist, member of a Fatah committee, and social activist, belonging to the "Bidna Na'eesh" (We Want to Live) movement. As such he was arrested and tortured by Hamas more than once.

In April 2019, at the age of 38, he left his 3 children and pregnant wife for Istanbul, then on the smugglers' boats to Greece. He was making his way to Belgium, when he collapsed in Bosnia in August 2019. He died in hospital, the doctors suspecting he had leukemia.

A very sad story.

They are fortunate to have had a lot of support. Their extended family has rallied round to look after them, and they were honored by Fatah and the Palestinian Authority, who pronounced Dr. Tamer a Shaheed (martyr) and helped return his body home to Gaza for burial.

Based on the private school, I reckon they are also getting a salary from the PA.

They're a lovely, gentle family. I wish them a better future.

1/ Has Hamas faked another attack?

Gazan accounts are reporting an attack from an IDF plane on Thailandy Restaurant in the heart of Gaza City, allegedly killing 25. I'm no expert, but the footage seems strange.

Although the restaurant is no more than a tent, it was hardly damaged. The roof is intact, so are the plastic chairs. Computers and TV screens appear to be undamaged. Even the tablecloths were not torn. Surely it all would have been completely destroyed.

Bodies shown also appear intact with little blood.

 2/ This footage is most interesting. Here we see the laptops, TV screens and rablecloths all intact, even paper notes attached to the laptops didn't fly away. And watch at 00:45 how one of the injured men taps the dead or injured man he is lying on. Very strange.

I've put this behind protection not because I think it needs it, but because someone at X might.

Just before he deleted it, I managed to capture a TikTok video of Sa'eed Al-Najjar, in which he invites us to Soul, a new restaurant café in Khan Younes, South Gaza Strip, opening tomorrow May 7 2025. He says the place will serve all types of pizzas, all types of Western desserts, and hot and cold beverages. English subtitles.

Hamas affiliated terror "journalist" Hasan Eslaiah, gleeful participant in Oct 7 massacre, was reportedly badly wounded during the night, in an attack on a tent of "journalists" at Nasser Hospital, Khan Younes, South Gaza Strip.
According to a Gazan source, 2 were killed and 9 were injured.

1/ An important explanation about clean water in Gaza: Gaza DOES NOT rely on the large desalination plants for clean water. For years Gazans have bought clean water from small private desalination companies. Please read a thread of mine from 2018 on this subject 👇 2/

🧵
1/ Hamas' Beach Massacre:

On the morning of October 7th, heavily armed Hamas terrorists took a number of boats up the Israeli coastline as part of their invasion.

The Israeli navy succeeded in intercepting many of them. But one boat got through, and (as seen in this video), attacked with machine guns and RPGs, those camping, fishing, and swimming at Zikim beach. (you can see the camping tent in the background).

2/ Many of the beachgoers that survived the initial attack fled to take cover in public restrooms.

This video was taken by one of the beachgoers. We can see the moment an Israeli soldier guarding the area makes a choice to go out on his own and confront the terrorists in an attempt to save the civilians.

1/ The buffoons at this London based Arab news outlet, aired an item about #MrFAFO. Like Saleh al-Jafarawi himself, they also didn't bother to translate this joke announcement of his "elimination" from Hebrew, assuming it was an official "wanted" poster.
vt.tiktok.com/ZSN5WcMQP/

Image 2/ Meanwhile Israeli TV satire show Eretz Nehederet made a hilarious skit about Saleh. You can get the gist even without translation.

1/ Now that it doesn't matter any more 😭I've just discovered another branch of the al-Hassayna Family empire. You'll remember the now former minister Mofeed Al-Hassayna (a.k.a "Minister of Grand Openings"), then there's the construction company and the pharmacy*
Okay so I've just discovered that Mofeed's brother and nephews are (were?) sole agents in Gaza for Israeli company Lehavot Fire Protection Systems!

Apparently the first batch of aid to Gaza is already being sold for a profit. Unless it's from UN stores. No real shortages in Gaza yet, just corrupt UN profiteers hiking prices.
UN in Gaza = Hamas.

This is an Israeli hostage in Gaza.

Notice the sandbags. Printed on them: "The people of Japan" and "For free distribution for Palestinian refugees"

I wonder if Japan knows their sandbags are being used by terrorists underground ?

It's official. Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah that controls #PalestinianAuthority, is behind new terror org in Nablus "Lion's Den". They have claimed Lion's Den leader, Tamer Kilani, killed last night, as one of their own, and have announced a day of mourning. #PalestinianTerrorism This is an old PLO/Fatah tactic. Tell the world you support peace and are fighting the violent elements, while simultaneously founding, arming and supporting terror cells. It dates back to Munich Olympics massacre days and was central to Arafat's Terror War in the early 2000's
