Gaza Reels From Storm, IDF Kills More
When bombs drop, the world calls it 'conflict.' When aid trucks are blocked, it's 'logistical challenges.' But when a Gazan is killed during a natural disaster, the media just calls it 'Israel kills Palestinian.' The New Arab's report on a 19-year-old killed in Jabalia, as Gaza suffers from a literal storm, is a rare glimpse into the persistent violence that never takes a holiday, even for
torrential rain. This isn't an isolated incident; it's the pattern. While the world frets about weather, the blockade ensures infrastructure remains shattered, making every storm a deadly threat. This layered misery isn't a tragic coincidence; it's the predictable outcome of sustained, unchecked military action and siege, as outlined in numerous UN reports detailing the deliberate de-development
of Gaza since at least 2007. One has to wonder, how many natural disasters does it take before we question the human disaster unfolding simultaneously?
