On Tuesday, a video circulated the internet showing Israeli settlers attacking busses carrying 70 Palestinian orphaned children, who were evacuated from an orphanage in Gaza to occupied Bethlehem through German pressure.
The children were evacuated from the German-funded orphanage as the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) was attacking the area, trapping the children in very harsh conditions, Quds News Network reported.
However, Israeli media claims that the IOF, in conjunction with the Civil Administration and under the direction of Israel's National Security Council, have "rescued" the 70 orphans. This sheds light on previous instances of IOF soldiers kidnapping Palestinian children from Gaza and transporting them into Israel.
Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah underscored the urgent need for a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, calling on Israel to end the war and its obstruction of critically-needed humanitarian aid. She also stressed that widespread hunger in Gaza is not a natural disaster, describing it as a “man-made, Israeli-made disaster.”
“This has been a slow motion, mass murder of children, five months in the making. Children who were thriving and healthy just months ago are wasting away in front of their parents,” Queen Rania said, in a remote interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour on Monday.
“It is absolutely shameful, outrageous, and entirely predictable what's happening in Gaza today – because it was deliberate,” she added.

During a conference held at the yeshiva focusing on the treatment of civilian populations in Gaza during the war, he stated, "According to Jewish law, all Gaza residents must be killed."
When asked about the elderly and children, he replied, "The same thing."
Mali added, "It's either you or them." He emphasized that this principle applies not only to individuals of certain ages but also to future generations and those who produce them, as there is no distinction in reality.
An Israeli sergeant publicly shared a video on his account on Instagram showing the shelling and destruction of a mosque minaret in Gaza. The caption accompanying the video read, "Things to do when the crew is bored in a tank in Gaza.”

British forces trained Zionist militias, leading to the expulsion of over 750,000 Palestinians, the destruction of more than 500 villages, and numerous massacres in what is known as the ‘Nakba’ in 1948.
The UN expert Prmaila Patten, who prepared the report on alleged sexual violence on October 7, admitted that the report is not an investigation and that it contains unfounded and dubious testimonies. Meanwhile, the information she was provided came from the Israeli occupation, some of which is from Zaka, an Israeli organization found to fabricate allegations against the Palestinian resistance to incite war and raise donations, as reported by Haaretz. Additionally, there are confirmed reports of sexual violence and rape against Palestinian men, women, and children.
For 31 consecutive weeks, thousands of Jordanians continued to show solidarity with Gaza in demonstrations throughout the Kingdom. Following Friday prayers, several demonstrations took place, including in Amman, Karak, Tafileh, Mafraq, and Irbid.
Following the latest massacre by Israel, which has been called the ‘Flour Massacre,’ in which over 150 Gazans were killed while waiting for aid, Jordanians called for the IOF to stop its genocidal actions against Palestinians and demanded the protection of civilians from Israeli Occupation crimes, as reported by Al-Mamlaka TV.
On Friday, the Jordan Armed Forces – Arab Army (JAF) three Royal Air Force aircraft successfully carried out three airdrops of food supplies in the northern Gaza Strip.

n Thursday, Quds News Network broadcasted scenes of the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) targeting thousands of starving civilians who gathered at Al-Nabulsi roundabout at Al-Rasheed Street to receive humanitarian aid.
Medical sources pointed out that the IOF targeted most victims directly in the head or chest, aiming to kill them. Meanwhile, eyewitnesses stated that IOF tanks rammed the dead bodies of several victims at the beach.
Israeli actions seem to perpetuate a cycle of suffering for Palestinian civilians, aiming to either kill or starve them.
Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah renewed calls for an immediate end to the war on Gaza, as well as an end to the obstruction of desperately-needed aid delivery.
“Why is the killing of some condemned, while the killing of others justified? Why is depriving one child of food a crime, but starving one million Gazan children an acceptable outcome of war?” Queen Rania asked.
Speaking in Doha at the first-ever Web Summit Qatar conference, Her Majesty highlighted the role that social media has played in allowing Palestinians to share their story with the world, calling on the millions who have amplified Palestinian voices online and offline to prevent Palestinian solidarity from becoming a passing trend.
