In Gaza, where a genocide is unfolding under bombardment, blockade and systematic destruction, nearly a million people live in tents or overcrowded shelters.

The sea, contaminated by sewage from collapsed infrastructure, offers only polluted relief. Extreme heat here is not a separate crisis; it is another weapon in a campaign that has already destroyed the conditions of life.This historic genocide belongs to the Israeli and USA political-military infrastructure, especially (but not limited to) the Likud and Republican political parties.
