Sooo, Chrissy and I wore these amazing @wearthepeace hoodies at the office and our team absolutely LOVED them! They were all asking where to get them, so Chris decided to get hoodies for the whole #HudaBeautyTeam ! 🍉✨   These hoodies are sooo special because 100% of the profits are donated to Gaza, providing food, water, and medical aid to the people there. Huge thank you to @nominal for including these beautiful necklaces, our team wear them all the time! 💖🙏 🎵: @itseddymack and @saintlevant 🍉 Hoodies: @wearthepeace

🔻The Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that the Israeli occupation army arrested and imprisoned an 82-year-old Palestinian woman named Fahmiyeh Al-Khalidi in Gaza under a law aimed at arresting illegal combatants. According to the report, Al-Khalidi, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, was taking shelter in a school in Gaza after being forcibly displaced due to the ongoing war on Gaza. According to a report by the British website Middle East Eye, Thursday, February 1, 2024, Al-Khalidi was arrested and imprisoned in December, under the Unlawful Combatants Imprisonment Law, and was transferred to the Israeli Damon Prison. She was released on January 19. Fahmiyeh’s caregiver, who had to stay with her at all times, was also arrested since her children live abroad, is still arrested. 🔻While many details related to Fahmiyeh’s arrest and detention are still unknown, because she had difficulty remembering what happened to her since her release. Also, reports indicate that Fahmiyah was sometimes handcuffed and in a wheelchair due to her difficulty walking. 🔻The Israeli newspaper reported, citing various other reports, that she was not the only elderly and disabled person detained in Israeli prisons. 🔻After her release, a Palestine TV reporter interviewed Fahmiyeh and another female detainee. They said they had been interrogated “for ten minutes for several days” in a center described as “in the mountains.” For its part, the Palestinian Authority’s Authority for Prisoners’ and Ex-Prisoners’ Affairs confirmed, on Sunday, January 28, 2024, that at least 142 female prisoners - including elderly women and #infants - are currently detained in Israeli prisons. The Commission warned in a joint statement with the Palestinian Prisoners’ Club that “horrific crimes” were being committed against female prisoners. #bringthemhomenow #bringthemhome

🔻Women in Israeli Damoun prison are exposed to aggravated retaliatory penalties. The Commission of Detainees’ Affairs emphasized that women detainees in Damoun prison, especially those who have been arrested from Gaza, are suffering from difficult detention conditions and exposed to aggravated penalties on a daily basis. According to Addameer Organization, the majority of Palestinian women prisoners are subjected to some form of psychological torture and ill-treatment throughout the process of their arrest and detention, including various forms of sexual violence that occur such as beatings, insults, threats, body searches, and sexually explicit harassment. Upon arrest, women detainees are not informed where they are being taken and are rarely explained their rights during interrogation. The Commission confirmed that the Israeli occupation forces have mounted a massive detention campaign afflicting women in the West Bank, Jerusalem and Gaza, indicating that all of them have been subjected to torture and assault during arrest and investigation. The commission stated that the IPS intended to isolate women detainees, committing the worst crimes against them, represented in: - sudden inspection at any moment - ⁠they suffer from the cold weather, due to lack of clothes and covers - ⁠poor quality and quantity food - ⁠overcrowding in cells and rooms due to the high number of detainees in the same place - ⁠IPS confiscated all electrical appliances such as radios and TVs, etc. The commission demonstrated that the aforementioned practices represent a small part of their suffering, and called on the international community to denounce the Israeli practices against Palestinian detainees, in which they violated international norms and laws. . . #bringthemhomenow #bringthemhome #bringthemhomenow🇮🇱 #carousel

🚨 Stripped, beaten and blindfolded: new research reveals ongoing violence and abuse of Palestinian children detained by Israeli military: Palestinian children in the Israel military detention system face physical and emotional abuse, with four out of five (86%) of them being beaten, and 69% strip-searched, according to new research by Save the Children. Nearly half (42%) are injured at the point of arrest, including gunshot wounds and broken bones. Some report violence of a sexual nature and some are transferred to court or between detention centres in small cages, the child rights organisation said. The new research comes as the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967 presents evidence today to the Human Rights Council on Palestinian children in detention. It is estimated that there are between 500 and 1000 children held in Israeli military detention each year. Children are increasingly unable to fully return to their normal life following release from detention, with the number of children having frequent nightmares rising from 39% to 53% and those suffering from insomnia or difficulty sleeping rocketing from 47% to 73%, compared to the children surveyed in 2020. #bringthemhomenow #bringthemhome #carousel

Wow, just wow….. so Shaun has lost his account, why? What’s wrong with fighting for humanity? I have followed this man for 4 years, he has taught me about SO many injustices. They have tried to discredit him, create smear campaigns against him, and now they have tried to silence him! Shame on you @meta @mosseri @zuck you guys mislabel the truth as a lie with your “independent fact checkers”(that you hire, so how are they independent?) but you have publicly acknowledged you allow fake news. I have seen fake ads with my face everywhere on Facebook, yet no one has removed them, despite all my reporting. This should be illegal!!

They suspended @shaunking immediately after this post. This is ridiculous. I was in the middle of writing Shaun a thank you message because this amazing man has spent his entire Christmas Eve speaking up for the people of Palestine. I then realized meta froze his account and we can no longer see anything on his page. I had screenshots of his last post because I was sending it in a group chat. He was literally calling meta out for the unfair censorship and bam they took his access away. But we can’t let that happen. We won’t let that happen. We demand @meta to give his account access back.
