DoomsdaysCW<p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GazaSoupKitchen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaSoupKitchen</span></a>: Update on January 28, 2025 by <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HaniAlmadhoun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HaniAlmadhoun</span></a>, Organizer</p><p>"Hi, Salaam, and hello everyone,</p><p>Thank you for your patience—I know I’m a few days late with this update, and I truly appreciate your understanding. It’s been an emotional roller coaster of a week, but off we go.</p><p>Despite the unbearable reality in Gaza, this week has given us rare moments of joy. We’ve seen heartwarming reunions—families hugging for the first time in 15 months, children embracing their parents, grandparents holding their grandkids. It’s a lot to process, but these moments remind us why we keep going.</p><p>At the same time, the harsh truth remains: most people returning to the north are finding their homes damaged or destroyed. Nine out of ten families come back to rubble, and yet, they return because Gaza is home. That’s why we’re shifting our operations northward, where traditionally 65% of Gaza’s population lived.</p><p>We’ve closed our two kitchens in the south, but in their place, we’ve distributed food parcels, snack packs, fresh produce, and meal kits—allowing families to cook for themselves. It’s been a meaningful way to serve, but our focus now is on the three operational soup kitchens in Gaza City.</p><p>1️⃣ <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BeachCamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeachCamp</span></a>: Originally planned for just another week, but the need is too great to close. Many of our crew members lost their homes in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BeitLahia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeitLahia</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Jabalia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jabalia</span></a>, and they’re staying near the kitchen to serve their community. We’re keeping it open to provide meals for up to 400 families daily.</p><p>2️⃣ <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AlNasr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlNasr</span></a>: Quickly becoming a central hub, serving up to 300 families daily. Our team is working hard to manage the crowd and ensure meals reach as many as possible.</p><p>3️⃣ <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ArabBaptistHospital" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ArabBaptistHospital</span></a>: This kitchen has been delivering not just meals but dignity—serving items like kebabs, rice, and fresh sandwiches. The hospital even gave us a certificate of appreciation, a gesture that meant so much to our team.</p><p>Beyond food, water is critical. Without it, people can’t clean up, rebuild, or even stay in their neighborhoods. We’ve been delivering four water trucks a day to <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NorthGaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NorthGaza</span></a>, and tomorrow will be our biggest push yet—aiming for 10 trucks. We’re urging all humanitarian actors to prioritize water delivery, especially to hard-to-reach areas like Jabalia.</p><p>We’re also working to establish a larger, permanent soup kitchen, likely in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Mashrua" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mashrua</span></a>, Beit Lahia. The only thing holding us back is logistics—our kitchen equipment is stuck in the south, and we haven’t yet found a way to transport it north. But we’ll get there.</p><p>And as always, we’re dreaming bigger. Maybe we can revive the school <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ChefMahmoud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ChefMahmoud</span></a> started. Maybe we can expand our support for orphans. But for now, we’re focused on the essentials—food, water, shelter, and clothing.</p><p>None of this would be possible without you. You have given so much to Gaza, and you deserve a moment of joy, of celebration. Every meal served, every drop of water delivered, every family supported—it’s because of your generosity. So please, take a deep breath and know that your kindness is making a real, tangible difference. </p><p>Additionally, I had the chance to speak with <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NPR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NPR</span></a>'s local affiliate about what gives me, as a Palestinian, a sense of community. It was such an uplifting conversation, and the Gaza Soup Kitchen took center stage—because of all of you and the incredible things we’ve accomplished together. Every step of the way, every smile, every bite, and every drop of water has been a testament to our collective effort.</p><p>With gratitude and appreciation,<br>Hani"</p><p><a href="https://www.gofundme.com/f/Hot-meals-in-gaza-daily" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">gofundme.com/f/Hot-meals-in-ga</span><span class="invisible">za-daily</span></a><br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Ceasefire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ceasefire</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Hope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hope</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NorthGaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NorthGaza</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GazaAid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaAid</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GazaFundraisers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GazaFundraisers</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FreePalestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreePalestine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CeasefireNow" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CeasefireNow</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FoodIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FoodIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaterIsLife</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GoFundMe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GoFundMe</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BeitLahiya" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeitLahiya</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BaitLahiya" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BaitLahiya</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/KhanYounes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KhanYounes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Palestine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Palestine</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRightsAreNeverWrong" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRightsAreNeverWrong</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NorthernGaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NorthernGaza</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Gaza" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gaza</span></a></p>

Seine Bewohner flohen um ihr Leben oder wurden getötet, oder beides.</p><p>Das Zimmer im Gazastreifen sah genauso aus wie die zerstörten Kinderzimmer, die ich am Morgen nach dem <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Massaker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Massaker</span></a> im <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Kibbutz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kibbutz</span></a> Be'eri sah.

Man kann sich dem Entsetzen über das, was jetzt in Gaza geschieht, nicht entziehen, selbst wenn man weiß, was unter diesen Krankenhäusern liegt.</p><p>Nicht weniger entsetzlich ist die Erkenntnis, dass man jetzt Partei ergreifen muss: Entweder ist man schockiert über die von der Hamas begangenen Gräueltaten oder über die von den IDF begangenen Gräueltaten. Entscheiden Sie sich. Wählen Sie eine Seite. Welche toten Kinder schockieren Sie mehr? Welche hinterbliebenen Eltern beunruhigen Sie mehr?

The room’s pink walls, intended to create a calm atmosphere, could not conceal the <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/horror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>horror</span></a>: the room was a mess, torn and tattered, with only a hairless doll strewn on the bed, reminding viewers that this was the room of a child, which will never serve as one again. Its inhabitants fled for their lives or were killed, or both.</p><p>The Gazan room looked exactly like the destroyed children’s rooms I saw in <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Kibbutz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kibbutz</span></a> Be’eri on the morning after the <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/massacre" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>massacre</span></a>.

How dare you compare?</p><p>Midday Saturday, <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Hamas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hamas</span></a>’ deputy health minister, Yousuf Abu al-Arish, speaking from the Al-Shifa <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Hospital" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hospital</span></a> in Gaza, announced that 39 premature <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/babies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>babies</span></a> are facing imminent death from <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/suffocation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>suffocation</span></a>, after <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/generators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>generators</span></a> shut down, cutting off <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/oxygen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oxygen</span></a> flow to their <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/incubators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>incubators</span></a>. Al-Arish cried out: “This is the moment we’ve been warning about.” Outside, there was already a pile of 100 bodies which had not been identified, covered in white shrouds. They could not be brought to <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/burial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>burial</span></a>, since the hospital was under <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/siege" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>siege</span></a>, surrounded on all sides by <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/tanks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tanks</span></a>. The <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/wounded" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wounded</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/sick" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sick</span></a>, as well as the <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/dead" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dead</span></a>, could no longer be extricated from the inferno.</p><p>Shortly afterward, Prof. Mads Gilbert, a Norwegian doctor who had volunteered at the hospital in all the previous wars but was now stuck in <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Cairo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cairo</span></a>, stated that <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Israeli" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Israeli</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/snipers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>snipers</span></a> had spread out around the hospital and were shooting at it. One <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/nurse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nurse</span></a> on the premature baby ward was killed.</p><p>Photos from# lShifa Hospital before it was cut off showed dozens of bleeding wounded people lying on the floor, and a shrieking father rushing towards his dead infant, who was also strewn on the floor. Hell is there. Dr. Tanya Haj-Hassan, a <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/physician" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physician</span></a> from <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/DoctorsWithoutBorders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DoctorsWithoutBorders</span></a>, said she had no words left.</p><p>There were 4,506 dead children by Friday night. Forty thousand housing units have been totally destroyed. Half of Gaza lies in rubble. The <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Rantisi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Rantisi</span></a> children’s hospital is under siege, with no one able to enter or leave. The <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/AlNasr" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlNasr</span></a> Children’s Hospital also stopped functioning and all the sick and wounded children there were evacuated, to God knows where. The <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/AlBuraq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlBuraq</span></a> school was bombed on Friday night, and at least 50 people who had thought they had found refuge there were killed. The <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/IDF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IDF</span></a> reported that a <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Hamas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hamas</span></a> company commander who had prevented Gazans from moving southwards was among the dead. Bingo.</p><p>One cannot maintain equanimity in view of these scenes. Even after the visits to kibbutzim and towns in the south the day after the massacre, even after being exposed to all the horrors that took place there. Even after all the stories of the survivors and the dead, and even after watching the movie put out by the IDF spokesperson. One cannot escape being horrified by what is now happening in Gaza, even in the knowledge of what lies underneath those hospitals.</p><p>No less horrific is the recognition that one must now take sides: You are either shocked by the atrocities committed by Hamas, or by the atrocities committed by the IDF. Decide. Choose sides. Which dead children shock you more? Which bereaved parents trouble you more? Can you not see the difference between Hamas, which came here to massacre, and an army that came to save hostages and wipe out Hamas? I can indeed, but the butchered children, and their no-less butchered <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/parents" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>parents</span></a>, have little interest in the intentions of their <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/killers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>killers</span></a>.</p><p>On both sides, they didn’t deserve to die. Their <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/killing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>killing</span></a> is equally shocking, and there is no reason in the world to be <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/apologetic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>apologetic</span></a> about taking this stance.</p><p>Source: Gideon Levy via <a href="https://mastodon.trueten.de/tags/Haaretz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Haaretz</span></a>: </p><p><a href="https://www.haaretz.com/opinion/2023-11-12/ty-article/.premium/in-both-israel-and-in-gaza-they-didnt-deserve-to-die/0000018b-bfcf-d03e-a3ab-bfffe07d0000?lts=1699799160257" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">haaretz.com/opinion/2023-11-12</span><span class="invisible">/ty-article/.premium/in-both-israel-and-in-gaza-they-didnt-deserve-to-die/0000018b-bfcf-d03e-a3ab-bfffe07d0000?lts=1699799160257</span></a></p>
