It Has Been Six Months Since Israel Launched Its Brutal Offensive On Palestine’s Gaza, Killing More

Hey you know what sucks is predatory companies that make you enter your email address so that they can harass and advertise to you to access resources you might need to keep track of expenses after a disaster. So, uh, fuck them.

If you need to track the cost of things like hotel stays, pet kenneling, medical care, etc. after a disaster you can use this worksheet.

If you need to create an inventory of your home for an insurance claim (and if you'd like to do this to keep someplace safe before a disaster) you can use this worksheet (two pages, instructions on the first page, worksheet on the second).

And here's a FEMA document with numbers for disaster relief groups and a checklist of documents that you may need to have replaced as well as a description of what to do if you had cash in your home that was destroyed and can possibly be replaced.

Hi all

If you're unfamiliar, Lama is a 9 year old Gazan girl who is also known as Gaza's youngest journalist. She dreams of becoming a journalist as an adult and telling the world the truth about her people. Al Jazeera has featured her regularly in their news coverage on Palestine. Here she is in a Press Vest far too big for her. A role far too big for her.

She and her family evacuated to the south of Gaza.

Israel Occupational Forces have begun bombing the south in earnest. Lama and her family is in danger, and trying to escape. There are high fees required to escape into Egypt, please help out if you can.

The red crescent operative shared the last piece of communication they had with Hind, after her 15 year old sister [layan] was killed. The operative said they remained on call for three hours with Hind while they sent a team to rescue her. Then they lost all means of communication with Hind, and the team sent. It's been more than 70 hours. These are 6 year old Hind's last words before we lost connection. Her fate and the team remains unknown. Raise the Hashtag on every platform: Where is Hind?

Remember that Hind was in a car with other 5 members of her family, one of which her sister, layan who called the red crescent pleading for help, saying their car is surrounded by Israeli tanks. Layan got shot and killed while on call. The whole family has been killed except for little Hind, please help any way you can. Imagine being 6 years old, stuck in a vehicle with the bodies of your dead family, surrounded by military tanks shooting. Where is Hind? What happened to the rescue team?
