“After two years of solitary confinement, prisoner Ahmed Manasra was transferred to join his fellow prisoners.
Ahmed suffered from torture, abuse, and isolation, as well as loss of vision (due to lack of sunlight) and mental illness due to his solitary confinement. He has been held captive for 8 years after he was abducted at 13 years old in 2015.
The zionist prison administration also provided him with contaminated food and prevented his family from sending him money to buy food from the cantina.
Ahmed's solitary confinement was set to end 6 months ago in September, and he has served 8.5 years of his 9.5 year sentence, with the last two in solitary confinement.”

January 2022 article depicts testimonies of life in solitary confinement in Israeli prisons
“The cell was so small that I could not stretch my legs to sleep. I was given a small rag to sleep on and I had to bend my legs to fit in the small space … During this time I was beaten and the person who beat me told me he would stop beating me only if I confessed.”
“I felt so terrible that I wanted to kill myself. I broke a plastic fork they brought with the food and I cut my wrist and made more cuts along the inside of my arm until my elbow.”
“On my 7th day in solitary confinement I lost my mind completely and was in despair. I felt I could do anything; like attack the guard. I started to bang my head against the rough walls until I bled. When the guard found out he called in some soldiers and they took me to the clinic. The doctor treated my wound and then I was handcuffed and shackled and taken to a room where I was tied to a chair for about three hours as punishment for hurting myself.”
Through popular request, the shark of the day is the Cookie Cutter Shark.
Two people already have been sad he was not included and to be honest the reason is that it was hard to find images of it in nature, since not many people would like to see drawings or the animal after being fished.
But here it is, and a few fun facts.
The cookie cutter shark's scientific name is Isistius brasiliensis (we share a country).
The shark appears in warm waters worldwide (the name brasiliensis coming because the type specimen, the one in which they get described by science, was caught in Brazil), mainly close to islands.
Its very tiny, reaching 42-56cm (16.5 to 22 inches)
The name comes from leaving a round bite mark on it's preys, around cookie-sized, it has even been found biting submarines.
They have a parasitic lifestyle.
They are bioluminescent around the under side of it's body.
They stay deep in the sea during the day, but getting slightly closer to the surface during the night.
Their mouth to be kinda creepy tho.
Hanan and her husband have 3 young children, Lana (10), Abdul Karim (7), and Adam (2); since last year they've been displaced and without income.
Their house in Khan Younis was destroyed with them inside, as well as the clothing store which supported their family. Now, they live in a weak tent which fails to protect them from even the weather, surrounded by scarcity and disease on the coast of Ghazzah.

Story written by @rumiandroses
By now, you all must have seen the news that Gaza had officially run out of food, as one of the main aid suppliers in Gaza, World Food Program, had announced that their stock has been completely depleted, leaving just a few days for community kitchens to function.
This comes after more than 50 days (and counting) of Israel's complete closure of the borders, preventing food and medicine, among other life essentials, from entering Gaza. There are children crying out of hunger with trucks loaded with over 100,000 tons of food mere minutes away from them, which Israel continues to prevent from entering besieged Gaza.
This also comes after Israel had deliberately destroyed swaths of farmlands in Gaza, specifically targeting them with bombs and chemical weapons that destroy the chance of growing crops. Israel also made sure bakeries are destroyed as well as water sources.
Diabolical is an understatement when it comes to the Zionist entity.
There are still things you can do. On top of raising awareness and protesting when possible, independent organisations like APN are working directly with farmers in Gaza to rehabilitate the agricultural sector and restore local food systems to combat famine, counter the blockade and build food sovereignty. You can donate to their Revive Gaza's Farmlands initiative here.
Additionally, keep in mind that this means whatever food supplies remain available in Gaza now costs astronomical amounts of money, so keep sharing and donating to individual fundraising campaigns. Gazafunds is a good source if you're not sure where to start. Remember that your donations and shares are often the only source of hope for these families.
After reading a far bit into the Manga but not catching up I thought this would be accurate for the child soldiers 💀
