A 20-year-old Palestinian woman from Gaza, who was in a state of severe physical deterioration due to leukemia and a genetic condition affecting nutrient absorption, died after being evacuated to Pisa University Hospital in Italy for treatment. She was admitted late Wednesday and passed away on Friday. The evacuation was part of a humanitarian mission facilitated by Israel amid a rising malnutrition crisis in Gaza. Despite medical reports confirming leukemia as the cause of death, some media outlets, including the BBC, erroneously reported that she died of malnutrition, leading to disputes over the narrative surrounding her condition and treatment. Israeli and Gazan doctors concurred on the leukemia diagnosis, while the hospital described her clinical condition as very complex and compromised upon arrival.

1) imagine being this much of a sociopath 2) she’s of course lying. *Every image* has *not* shown to be a lie. 3) why isn’t she pushing for western journalists to be allowed into Gaza by Israel? 4) western doctors who are in Gaza say Gazans are starving. https://t.co/5GPaVbYHNq https://t.co/9D7DCKRl3g
