In Jabalia, North Gaza, Israel is killing the family of my friends and the family of my family. Chronicle of a genocide foretold.

10/14/2024

URGENT!! HELP NEEDED!!

Many of you may remember my friend Rachel who has family in Jabalia Camp in North Gaza. I've posted her updates here before.

The family was trapped in Jabalia by the IDF, living under a tarp in the remains of their home. The IDF just bombed their house a few hours ago, and won't let the Red Cross/Red Crescent in. They're shooting at anyone that moves. The family include many children who are starving and have hepatitis. They ran out of water a couple days ago.

I beg you, please, if you have any contacts at the State Department, your Senators offices, the Government of Israel---anyone who can bring pressure to bear on them to let the Red Crescent in to try to get the survivors out from beneath the rubble. It's a Federal holiday, but please, first thing tomorrow, CALL your representatives and demand Israel stop firing on the ambulances and let the Red Crescent through.

They are in House #187 in Block 12 of Jabalia Camp. The Al-Sayyid family. Thank you for anything you can do.

Please don't let them die there. Please.
