KEEPING UP

Sudan Cut Off from the World 🌍 🇸🇩

Approximately 65% of Sudan's population is now unreachable due to the telecommunications blackout, leaving us in the dark about their well-being and safety. 

Here's what you need to know:

📵 Total Blackout: 

The Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have orchestrated a complete shutdown of internet and phone communication throughout Sudan, isolating the entire nation from the rest of the world.

🇸🇦 Retaliation Tactics: 

This drastic measure comes as a retaliatory response after the Sudanese Army cut off internet and communication in Darfur. However, it directly contradicts the Jeddah Declaration signed just last year.

🚨 Demand Action: 

We cannot ignore this alarming trend. Blackouts of this magnitude often precede unspeakable atrocities. We urge you to join us and comment under these media outlets and demanding action to shed light on Sudan:

UPDATE

Rafah Under Attack 💔🇵🇸

Rafah, the last sanctuary for Gazans, is under attack. Here's why we need to act now:

🚨 Danger at the Border: 

The IDF told the Plaestinians to evacuate to the south in order to remain safe, where civilians are forced into an area lacking basic infrastructure and protection.

🏠 Overcrowded : 

With 1.9 million of Gaza's 2.3 million population crammed into Rafah, families are huddling in tents or sleeping in the streets, exposed to relentless attacks without refuge.

🔒 Trapped and Cornered: 

Palestinians have nowhere to escape, with borders to Egypt closed and being cornered by the IDF. Rafah’s dense population leaves civilians as an open target for attacks.

📈 The Statistics: 

In the last 24 hours alone, 107 Palestinians have been murdered. Since October 7, over 27,000 have been murdered, majority being women and children.

🏥 Healthcare Crisis: 

The healthcare system in Gaza, which was already fragile, is now on the verge of collapsing completely. Only 9 hospitals are operational, and they are functioning at a fraction of their capacity.

SNIPPETS

In Austin, Texas, a 23-year-old Palestinian was brutally stabbed in the chest following their participation in a pro-Palestine rally, solely for expressing support for Palestine. This left the victim hospitalized in critical condition. The suspect, Bert James Baker, has been arrested. 

The United States military carried out airstrikes targeting over 85 "Iran-linked targets" in both Iraq and Syria. These strikes marked the initial response to a drone attack that resulted in the deaths of three soldiers at a remote US base in Jordan.

Chicago becomes the largest city in the United States to adopt a ceasefire resolution. The decision was reached after an equal number of votes—23 for and 23 against the resolution. Mayor Brandon Johnson intervened by casting his vote, breaking the tie and successfully passing the resolution.

The United States witnessed a 178% increase in hate crimes targeting Muslims and Palestinians, in the three months following October 7th. According to a Muslim advocacy group, they received a total of 3,578 complaints during the last 3 months of 2023.
