Good evening. It's 6PM, Wednesday, 29th October. The headlines: #Hurricane #Melissa, #Jamaica's most severe on record, has battered #Cuba following widespread destruction and power cuts affecting 77% of Jamaica. Israeli air raids in #Gaza have resulted in at least 104 fatalities. As Melissa struck Cuba, over three-quarters of a million were evacuated. #BBC #News

Hi everyone, today we’d like to welcome two new members to Gaza Verified after @aseelfromgz, @casey, and I had the honour of talking to them over video chat.

They are:

• Samar and her family (@Samar_2025). We spoke with her children, Qais and Mohammed.

• Maram and her family (@maram4). Maram’s account is mainly run by Weaam, her daughter, who we spoke to.

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and the fediverse, follow their accounts, and, if you can, please help them with their fundraisers and please share this so others might also.

💕

I want to congratulate my brother @Qusay_1, my partner in everything, for graduating after two years of studying through war. He did it. Against every obstacle, he made it to the finish line with a 90.5 GPA. I’ve watched his strength and patience through it all, and I couldn’t be prouder. He turned pain into achievement. Proud of you, Qusay, and wishing you an even brighter future. 🎓 ❤️
P.S his photos in graduation robes are from before the war

I am a father exhausted by war and harsh conditions. All I wish is to provide my children with a small meal and a box of milk for my little daughter, so she can stay well.
It’s been a long time since I started asking for help, yet no one has reached out... Please, even a small amount can make a big difference 🙏💔

Bombing people is not a ceasefire. Saying 'the ceasefire will not be endangered by anything' while it is breached continuously, is straight up lying.

@aral > The sky is on fire again… endless bombing, explosions shaking the ground beneath us. We’re hiding under a thin tent that can’t protect us from the shrapnel or the fear. Children are crying, mothers are praying, and we’re just hoping to survive the night. Please, don’t look away — we are still here, still alive, still afraid. 💔😭
Pray for us, and speak out for us… we need your voices.

The occupation is breaking the ceasefire and bombing right now.
Our blood hasn’t even dried yet, world!
Where will we go? Will a tent protect us from the shrapnel and rockets?😭
