Israel-Gaza war: How a family escaped to Canada | BBC News

Published

on



Mohammed Alghusain and his family had a comfortable life back in Gaza. A good job, a penthouse on the beach, the children at excellent schools. Then everything changed on 7 October.

His seven-year-old daughter Suha has diabetes. When she heard bombing close to where they were sheltering, her blood sugar level dropped so low she could fall into a coma at any moment.

Basic medical supplies such as insulin were not available and all the hospitals were full of the wounded and the dead – Mohammed knew had to leave for Canada, this meant leaving his parents behind.

Hamas says nearly 20,000 Palestinians have been killed since the conflict began. Those surviving have very little access to food, water, and medical supplies.

    In 1992, Denmark accepted 321 Palestinian refugees. Over time, it was reported that 64% of these individuals have received a serious fine or jail time for crimes, excluding traffic law violations. This statistic is based on the definition of a serious crime as one resulting in a fine of more than 1500 DKK or jail time. The reports also highlight that a significant proportion of these refugees, as well as a large percentage of their 999 children, are receiving welfare benefits, including early pensions usually given to people with severe physical or mental issues

    I am so happy that the children are happy and safe But why is Egypt closing its borders to Gazans especially women and children and the wounded? Please it is the only option under the circumstances. War is a terrible thing. But as a Gazan if they raped your wife,beheaded your sweet babies,would you sit back and smile?

    Peace be with you all ❤️

    Listen, my beloved brothers: Has not God chosen the poor in the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom that he promised to those who love him.

    But you have despised the poor; do not the rich oppress you and drag you into court.

    Do they not blaspheme the good name that is spoken of you.

    If you keep the best law, as it is written in the Scripture: You shall love your neighbor as yourself, you do well.

    If you show partiality, you commit sin and the law condemns you as transgressors.

    For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.

    He who said, ‘You shall not commit adultery,’ also said, ‘You shall not murder.’ If you commit murder, though you do not commit adultery, you are a transgressor of the law.

    Speak and act as those who will be judged by the law of liberty.

    He who does not show mercy will be judged without mercy; for mercy triumphs over judgment." James 2:5-13.

    LORD JESUS said:
    Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

    Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

    For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11:28-30.

    The Day of Final Judgment of our Saviour Jesus Christ is at hand

    Brothers and sisters!
    Our Shepherd is returning soon!
    I hope that you will live a righteous life according to the Words of Almighty GOD and the LORD CHRIST and become a wise sheep who can stand on the right side of the LORD when He returns.

    Luke 3:8-14

    May the LORD’s Grace and Mercy be upon everyone 🙏❤️

These words are true and worthy, he who has ears to hear let him hear, blessed is he who understands.)

    “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?”

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 3.

    “And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 8 to 11.

    Gospel of Matthew, chapter 24, verse 8 to 10.

    “And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.”

    Gospel of Luke, chapter 21, verse 25 to 28.

    “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 16 to 18.

    “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 3 to 6.

    “Repent therefore of this thy wickedness, and pray God, if perhaps the thought of thine heart may be forgiven thee.”

    “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

    Gospel of John, chapter 3, verse 3.

    “From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

    “But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 8.

    “knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.”

    Second Peter, chapter 3, verse 3 to 4.

    “For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”

    First Thessalonians chapter 5, verse 3.

    “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

    First Thessalonians, chapter 4, verse 16 to 17.

    “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

    First Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 52.

    “I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left. Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.”

    So beautiful to see a Palestinian family putting their CHILDREN'S safety first. So far I have only seen videos of familys swearing they will never leave Gaza because it's their land bla bla bla. My land in Scandinavia is also my land but I would leave it in the blink of an eye if my children were in danger here. My family comes before my country always. I hope this family will be happy in Canada.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
