Enough gawking! Enough theorizing! Help a freed Palestinian prisoner who lost his family get a tent!!!

KhaledNurseGaza on twitter: My friend is being released today—after more than a year and two months in the prisons of the occupation.
He was imprisoned only because he refused to leave his home in northern Gaza. He never carried a weapon, never joined a fight; he simply wanted to stay in his own house, in peace.

But he doesn’t know yet…
He doesn’t know that his home has been reduced to ashes, that his brother, sister, and her children were all killed. He will walk out of prison searching for them—and find no one. He will return to nothing. No roof, no walls, not even a corner to shelter his grief.

That’s why I decided to raise just $1,000 for him—a small amount that might buy him a tent, a blanket, a piece of dignity after everything he’s lost.
Please, help me give him a tiny beginning in a world that took everything from him.
Because nothing is more painful than stepping into freedom, only to find that freedom has no place left to go.

May all our prisoners be free, from river to sea, from sea to sea. May every border and checkpoint and wall and barricade fall.

FINAL HOUR ⚠️ The grief, the famine, the displacement, the unemployment, the homelessness have not ended.

So our solidarity—real and true, not fickle and based on the news—remains lifesaving. Nothing less.

Stretch: 1076/1100 for food, shelter, more for SIX families & a displacement camp in Gaza. ❤️‍🩹

absolutely no one, and especially no Palestinian person, should be incarcerated for protesting against the zionist-amerikan genocide.

Did you know you can donate to the Municipality of Gaza? They have been trying to get water into Gaza again for a while now and have an active campaign:

NGL, with Link banned, our reach for the giving circle has dropped. Translation: less support for six families & a displacement camp in Gaza.

So let’s turn this around. This is still a survival fund—not even a rebuilding fund! They’re hungry & homeless.

5 hours left 🚨 545/1000 for six families.

Among most famous surviving Palestinian journalists in Gaza, Saleh al-Jafrawi has been killed in Gaza City.

Israeli occupation media claims he was killed by members of Dogmosh clan, other sources that he was killed by them on orders from Israel which threatened him.

Living between the abject horror of state violence and the sweetness of the solidarity we are all building to face said violence—canvassing our neighborhoods with KYR literature, migra watch shifts, signal chats full of love and outrage. Thank God for everyone stepping up to meet this moment.

This is such an important thing to remember - ceasefire or not, Palestinians are still without food, shelter, or medical supplies.

They still need help - you can donate to support multiple families here: chuffed.org/project/hope...
