@AnnaLion Il reste les soutiens des clans et milices soutenus par Israël, comme les Forces Populaires de Yasser Abu Shabab, qui terrorisent tous ceux qui s’opposent à eux, et s’accaparent le peu d’aide humanitaire qu’Israël laisse entrer (Israël les laisse se servir).

I’m back with my of today hahahaha.

I found this very interesting that shows the extent of the problem with the yellow line, as part of Trump’s truce agreement.

My family is currently staying in an apartment very close to the yellow line. We can hear shelling and gunfire and the sound of drones all day every day, it’s more exhausting and stressful than words can express.

Gaza's Yellow Line: Where Genocide is Internationally Acceptable
The western part (around 42% of the Strip): where over two million people are allowed to live.
Even here, Palestinians face death from near-daily Israeli attacks, starvation, and disease, stripped of all necessities for survival.

It's deliberately vague and ever-shifting: The Yellow Line changes daily; even Israel's maps do not match the concrete barriers

The Yellow Line has already advanced 940m beyond all published maps.

The eastern part (around 58% of the Strip): a military blackout zone. To establish it, entire towns and neighbourhoods were destroyed and the population was forcibly displaced. Palestinians are prevented from returning, attempts to return are met with lethal force.

The dangerous reality: Inside the Yellow Line, killings, demolitions, expulsions, and permanent dispossession are treated not as crimes, but as part of the "implementation of the peace plan".

I hope one day I can leave Gaza and get access to an observatory. God willing. My dream would have been to study astrophysics, but it’s not possible in Gaza.

Do you ever look at the stars and think that you’re not looking up, but around? That we’re extremely small in an infinite universe? I find it so beautiful, it helps me to think about other things than this life.

I hope you enjoyed this! I want to talk about space more often.

A star begins as a collapsing cloud of hydrogen and helium. Fusion in the core produces energy carried outward by radiation and convection. When hydrogen is depleted, stars expand into red giants and eventually leave behind remnants: white dwarfs, neutron stars, or black holes, depending on their mass. Multiple stars can orbit each other, forming binary or multi-star systems. Even in their endings, they enrich space with elements for future stars: a cycle of renewal written across the sky.

Stars shine because hydrogen fuses into helium in their cores. When hydrogen runs out, heavier elements form either during the star’s life or in supernova explosions of very massive stars. Astronomers study a star’s mass, motion, brightness, and spectrum to read its story (its age and evolutionary stage). A star’s mass, more than anything, determines the path that story will take.

Our nearest star, the Sun, powers life on Earth and is also the main source of energy for the rest of the solar system. Other stars appear as tiny sparks only because distance dims them. Long ago, humans linked these sparks into constellations and gave names to the brightest ones — many echoing through history in Arabic, like quiet messages from the past.

A star is a massive, luminous sphere of plasma held together by gravity. Its light comes from nuclear fusion, where hydrogen nuclei merge to form heavier elements like helium and lithium, releasing huge amounts of energy as heat and the light that travels across space to reach us. Most stars are made mainly of ionized hydrogen and helium, and many have planets orbiting them.

Good evening 🌔 This is Khaled from Rafah, #Gaza Strip, #Palestine. How are you today? How was your day? I hope you are well and healthy and your heart is warmer than the weather in Gaza. ♥️

We’re nearing the full moon, it’s in two days.
Do any of my friends here love astronomy?

Ever since I was a child, I was always really drawn to the stars. I used to be able to spend hours on the internet, on the NASA website. Today, I’d like to talk about space 😊🪐🔭

I hope one day I can go to an observatory.

Because of the heavy rains, our streets are flooded, and our homes are filled with water. Our blankets, our clothes, and even the few basic necessities we have are soaked.

We try to endure, but the cold and the wetness weigh heavily on us…

Good evening, my love 🌒 How are you? How was your day?

A new low-pressure system is starting here in Gaza today, and the sky is overcast with rain clouds. The weather is very cold. I love winter, but during the war, I started wishing it wouldn't come because we don't have anything to keep warm. I hope this winter ends and we are safe.♥️

Standing in the rubble — not because I'm weak, but because I'm still standing.
Every stone behind me holds a story, and every pain within me speaks of resilience.
From the heart of destruction, I say: there is still hope, still a dream, and still a homeland worth living for 💔🫂🇵🇸

I haven’t posted in a couple of days — not because I’m okay, but because the rain is falling on a house that’s half destroyed.
No walls to protect us, no roof to keep us warm.
In Gaza, we live between cold, damp, and pain… trying to survive through it all.
Please keep us in your prayers — it’s unbearable 💔🫂

LA SITUATION NOVEMBRE 2025

Pour rappel, 92% des logements à Gaza ont été détruits ou endommagés par l'armée israélienne. Il en résulte que l'immense majorité des Palestinien·nes vivent dans des abris de fortune. Les terrains les mieux protégés du vent, qui ne sont pas directement en bord de mer, se louent dans les 500$. Les approvisionnements d'abris et de matériel pour passer l'hiver par les ONG sont pour l'instant bloqués. Les gens doivent se débrouiller avec ce qui reste dans les marchés, et qui se vend à prix d'or. Les Palestinien·nes présents dans le fediverse n'ont pas de salaire permettant de subvenir à leurs besoins. C'est le troisième hiver qu'ils passent dans des abris de fortune.

LE CLIMAT

Pendant l'été, les températures peuvent atteindre 38° et de nombreux insectes prolifèrent, boostés par une situation sanitaire désastreuse. L'hiver est pluvieux et venteux et les équipements prévus pour l'été (dont certains ne sont même pas imperméables), sont complètement inefficaces durant cette saison. De violents orages ponctuent un hiver froid et humide, qui empêche les habits de sécher correctement.

LES BESOINS

Ici, on a une liste du stricte minimum dont ils et elles ont besoins. Avec les habitations détruites et les déplacements d'urgence, les équipements "chauds" qu'iels pouvaient avoir ont été perdus. Leur tente est usée et n'assure plus l'étanchéité. La seule solution reste de racheter le matériel.

- vêtements chauds
- matelas et des couvertures adaptés pour le froid
- tente imperméable et solide permettant de résister aux pluies et au vent

Many people are sick given our living conditions for the past 2 years, our weakened immune system and our exposure to toxic chemicals and pollution. My mother has high blood pressure.

Hello my dear friends ☀️ This is Khaled, 21, from Rafah, #Gaza Strip, #Palestine. How are you today? How was your day? Did you see your family and friends? I hope you’re well and happy and you have a lovely day with your loved ones!

Many friends are asking me questions about the health system in Gaza. The other day, I talked about some health problems I started having not long before the current war started. Today I’d like to talk about the #health system in the Gaza Strip before the war.

In the next few days, I’ll tell you more about the health system in Gaza, before 2023, and since the war started.

No spoilers, but as you can imagine, things are not great nowadays.

If you’d like to help my family get decent healthcare, please consider donating to my brother Bilal’s fundraising campaign. Or share my posts. Or thank you, I pray for you.

I was always quite an active, sporty and healthy child. I always loved playing football, and exercising with my friends and cousins. But a little while before the war started, things changed.

One day, I was sitting with my cousins, chatting and laughing, when suddenly my heart felt a sharp pain and pressure. I also felt short of breath. I washed my face and felt a little better until the pain subsided. But the next day, the pressure in my heart and chest suddenly increased.
