it will just kill you

Your wish? Heard.

"A ceasefire deal was reached Wednesday [January 15, 2025[ to end 15 months of fighting in the Gaza Strip, according to President Joe Biden, Qatar's prime minister and Hamas officials.

The hard-won agreement will also free dozens of hostages held in Gaza, as well as Palestinians in Israeli jails, bringing the first real break in violence since a weeklong truce expired Dec. 1, 2023.

The deal will take effect Sunday [January 19, 2025, this appears to be the prisoner release, not the ceasefire itself], according to Qatar’s prime minister and foreign minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, whose country hosted weeks of intense negotiations.

Under the phased agreement, Israeli forces would withdraw to the Gaza border, allowing displaced Palestinians to return to their homes and for the transfer of hostages and prisoners. Large amounts of humanitarian aid would be shipped to the enclave and hospitals and health care centers would be rebuilt, he said.

Hamas, meanwhile, will release 33 hostages in exchange for 100 Palestinian prisoners with life sentences, according to a portion of the deal shared by Hamas. Israel will also release 1,000 Palestinian prisoners who were not involved in the Oct. 7 attacks, the text says, and an unspecified number of Palestinian prisoners will also be released abroad or in Gaza...

Earlier, a diplomatic source in Washington told NBC News that Netanyahu was preparing to meet with his security Cabinet, where approval of the deal was expected quickly. He would then take the pact to the full Cabinet, which is also expected to approve. 

Israel’s Supreme Court would have 24 hours to permit an appeal, so the earliest a ceasefire could go into effect would be Friday [January 17, 2025], the source said. The first group of hostages would come out Sunday, the person added.

The war has shattered Gaza’s infrastructure and displaced most of its population. Health officials in the enclave say more than 46,000 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces, most of them civilians.

The chances for a ceasefire seemed vanishingly small after many false dawns in recent months.

In November, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant against Netanyahu for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. Amnesty International and Doctors Without Borders in December accused Israel of carrying out a genocide in Gaza."

Urgent help needed for dental surgery

Hey folks this is my last attempt at reaching out for help to make the deadline of a very important jaw revision surgery I need

Over the past week I’ve only generated $109/$2000

Thank you to everyone who has been generous enough to donate. It means the world 🫶🏼

The surgery is this coming Monday on the 20th. By then I have to have at least $1000 to get the surgery. And pay the rest off within the next month.

Please 🙏🏽 this is my last call for help. If you are able to donate anything toward this cause it would be a physical and emotional relief for me with my pain is barely manageable at this point. Please share and donate.

Much love 🤍

The first phase of the ceasefire deal will go into effect on January 19th, meaning Biden and his administration have insisted on continuing this war on Gaza until their last day in office, until their final breath. Evil is a massive understatement.

I ask you not to stop donating until the last breath, because now we depend on your donations to rebuild our lives again. I have not received donations well in the last few days.
