Fair warning — this is a soul-crushing story from the BBC:


“… For 19 months of war, and now under a renewed Israeli offensive, this local cameraman - who I do not name, for his safety - has listened to the anguished cries of the survivors in hospital courtyards.

His physical distance is respectful, but they are on his mind, day and night. He is one of them, trapped in the same claustrophobic hell.

This morning he is setting out to find Siwar Ashour, a five-month-old girl whose emaciated frame and exhausted cry at Nasser hospital in Khan Younis affected him so much, when he was filming there earlier this month, that he wrote to tell me something had broken inside him.

She weighed just over 2kg (4lb 6oz). A baby girl of five months should be about 6kg or over.…”

The embedded video in the link is damned near unwatchable but we shouldn’t look away.
 
The Israeli government has become just as bad as Hamas. This isn't going to end until one side wipes out the other or the Palestinians are under apartheid from Isreal.
