📈 A infographic series by Palestinian news outlet the Quds News Network on the admission on Sunday, July 7th, of the Israeli media that the rumoured "Hannibal Directive", ordering the Israeli occupation army to fire on Israeli citizens who were taken hostage by Palestinian Resistance forces, and brought to the Gaza Strip, during the events of October 7th, 2023.
According to report published by Hebrew media outlet Haaretz, the Israeli occupation's Security apparatus ordered the occupation army to fire on any civilian vehicles headed towards the Gaza Strip, regardless if Israeli citizens were inside them.
This policy was instituted at the various sites where the Resistance penetrated during its incursion on October 7th, following reports, which surfaced during the chaos of that day, that Resistance fighters had kidnapped several Israeli citizens at the Erez Crossing, north of the border with the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli occupation forces responded by deploying "Zik" military drones, possibly referring to the Elbeit Systems Hermes 450 loitering munition, which targeted sites in Erez, as well as the Re'im military base near the location of the infamous Nova music festival.
The drones were also deployed to Nahal Oz, northeast of Gaza, and Kibbutz Nir Oz, east of central Gaza, all of which resulted in the deaths of an untold number of Israeli citizens, with some estimates suggested to be in the several hundreds.
The Israeli occupation army also deployed Merkava tanks to Kibbutz Be'eri, where Zionist soldiers reportedly fired shells at Israeli citizens who were being held captive in a civilian residence, killing at least 14 Israeli colonial settlers.
This was even admitted by the Israeli occupation forces, General Barak Hiram, who admitted to the Hebrew media that he prioritized the mission he was given by occupation leadership, over the lives of Israeli citizens being held captive.
Additionally, occupation aircraft also bombed several sites near the border with Gaza, due to orders they were given stating that "no vehicle should return to Gaza."

I'm often posting and talking about Mexico and my "mexican point of view" on media and news. This time, however, I feel deeply saddened and disappointed of my country
Yesterday, Jesus Ociel Baena, the first non-binary Mexican magistrate and their partner were found dead in their home in Aguascalientes. Magistrate Jesus Ociel was well known and recognized for their efforts to protect and promot LGBTQIA+ rights in the public sector, specially within the judiciary system.
The details are still unknown, but what it is clear is how Mexico is still a heavily LGBTQIA+-phobic, with media using incorrect pronouns and social media users celebrating the death of a person
Jesus Ociel, we name you and remember your fight for us LGBTQIA+ Mexicans
One of my favorite designs.

Hi folks. There seems to be a lot of confusion about what we as fans can and can't do with the striking happening. So I made a flowchart.
Let me make this SUPER DUPER EXTRA CLEAR. Unless an AMPTP studio reaches out and says "We would like to give you X (money/swag/whatever) to create content for us" (that would include writing or acting in anyway on your part) you will NOT be crossing a picket line.
Cosplay, fanart, fanfic, going feral, sharing marketing posts, watching your favorite show, getting your friends to watch your favorite show, etc does not count.
Please take this flowchart, repost it, spread it everywhere!
The studios benefit from us being confused. The studios benefit from us not promoting and not watching and cancelling our subscriptions. The unions, the actors, the writers, they all benefit from us promoting in their absence, they get paid when we watch the shows, we bolster their argument when we boost the shows numbers. If we make the media popular and successful the studios have to meet the writers and actors at the table, and the writers and actors will be in the position of power.
