The air is heavy with the smell of death. It’s inescapable, in every corner, and worse with every body taken out of the ground.
Every time they dig, they find more corpses, sometimes in places they never expect. Sometimes they only find parts of a person, or a corpse decomposed beyond recognition.
According to the Gaza government media office, some bodies were found decapitated, or had their skin and organs removed. Children, elderly women and young men are said to be among the dead.
Rescue workers say they found bodies with their hands tied behind their backs, which the UN human rights office said “indicates serious violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law”.
Israel denies it buried the Palestinian bodies, claiming instead that it had “respectfully” exhumed the dead searching for Israeli captives.
There are so many tears at Nasser hospital today and so much pain. It’s hard for me to find the words to describe this scene.
The feeling of seeing someone find their relative is indescribable, the way mothers cover their dead sons in a shroud and accompany them to the cemeteries.
Every sight we capture as journalists we do so silently. We can’t speak, we cry blood as we film. Our hands are shaking so much our cameras lose focus. But we start over and try again.
Moatasim Mortaja is a Palestinian video journalist in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Over recent days, he has been documenting mass graves uncovered in Nasser hospital, where more than 300 bodies have been discovered since Israeli forces withdrew. On Monday, his video of a woman in grey holding the recently uncovered body of her son spread across social media. This is his descriptions of the scenes at Nasser hospital.
My dearest Undertale AU community. I need your help cause some of you are victims of theft. I was informed that some freakers sell your art as pin buttons on one of our russian platforms.
I was able to contact shopkeepers, but I can’t remove them without proofs, so here’s the deal. If you see your/your friend’s artwork please, DM me with:
- Nickname
- Screenshot of your drawing(s). I have screenshots with higher resolution if you need it!
-Link to this work/WIP
If you know the artist, please ping them! If you can, please spread the post.
They ARE NOT going to remove pins if I won’t find original artists, and I can’t do it alone. Unfortunately, more serious actions like money refunds require lots of time dealing with documents, and I’m not mentally ready to deal with it, I’m sorry.
@ poetax and @ lunnar-chan are already aware! Thank you.
