Jawdat al-Khoudary's home was known as the most beautiful place in the Gaza Strip. Now, nothing remains of the house or garden. Khoudary, one of Gaza' most successful business men, whose family dates back nine generations in Gaza, had created a 100,000-square-foot oasis amid the besieged coastal enclave.

But now, the mosaic paths which weaved between verdant groves of exotic plants and greenhouses filled tens of thousands of tiny cactuses from around the world have been turned to desert by Israeli bulldozers. And the ornate columns and chandeliers which filled his adjacent home have been torn down. n collaboration with Amos Trust: https://www.amostrust.org/ Please support our work: https://www.palestinedeepdive.com/support Twitter:   / pdeepdive Instagram:   / pdeepdivegram

Gunness demands the UK and other third party states call for an investigation into the killing of hundreds of UNRWA staff by Israel since 7th October 2023.

Richard Sanders is an award winning film director with over 25 years experience. He was Senior Producer on Al Jazeera’s The Labour Files, and his latest film with Al Jazeera’s Investigation Unit, October 7, has just been released. Al Jazeera says, “the I-Unit reveals widespread human rights abuses by Hamas fighters and others who followed them through the fence from Gaza into Israel.” But the investigations also finds that “many of the worst stories that came out in the days following the attack were false. This was especially true of atrocities that were used repeatedly by politicians in Israel and the West to justify the ferocity of the bombardment of the Gaza Strip, such as the mass killing of babies and allegations of widespread and systematic rape.” Support 100% independent media proudly centring Palestinian voices against attempted erasure: https://www.palestinedeepdive.com/support Twitter: https://twitter.com/PDeepdive Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pdeepdivegram/ Daily news: https://palestinedeepdive.us4.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=2931c4b53e89e695a30817efb&id=ea848d5a28
