Since Israel’s siege, Palestinian adults in the West Bank and Gaza suffer from depression, a rate ten times higher than the global average. And yet, it’s the youth who are most vulnerable. A documentary by @kernhendricks for @undarkmag. #BeyondTheNews ➡️ bit.ly/4bAtL2a

Last December, I spent some time in the West Bank speaking to young Palestinians about their mental health. This short documentary is the result of those conversations. A huge thank you to both @undarkmag and @pulitzercenter for supporting this project. undark.org/2024/07/03/video-…

Since before the start of Israel's siege of Gaza, Palestinian mental health has been under distress. Now its youth are the ones suffering the most. This documentary by @kernhendricks for @undarkmag explores the mental toll of those in the West Bank. 👉bit.ly/3L8b2jV

Remember that when “Western independent journalists” enter Gaza, After the war ends, it’s with a Palestinian fixer, a Palestinian translator, and speak to Palestinian people and officials, to report a story, while Palestinian journalists, Live the story and report it to the world
CNN chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour says “our major problem covering Israel-Gaza right now… is that we can't get there”. Amanpour says it is “an unprecedented situation” where independent Western journalists are not on the ground in Gaza.

Horrendous Sources to Haaretz: 3 separate Israeli strikes on the World Central Kitchen convoy Survivors fled their vehicle after being targeted, only to be struck again in another car - then in another They even managed to alert colleagues they were hit but all were killed
The IDF's early explanation re the killing of the World Central Kitchen team is in - per "security sources" speaking to Haaretz. Before we get to the putative pretext for the attack, they also disclose a harrowing detail - the drone bombed the convoy THREE TIMES in succession..

What do Israelis see of the conflict in Gaza? We looked at coverage on Israeli TV channels: analysing the main evening news bulletins on the three biggest channels Over the 5 nights we watched, not a single clip of a Palestinian in Gaza speaking about what they’re facing

It's been nearly three months since we started to gather evidence of massacres in West Darfur. The last mass attack was in Sirba at the end of July - and individuals of interest like the manager of Red Crescent in West Darfur are narrowly escaping assassination attempts.
We stood on the Chad-Sudan border - watching and listening as the Darfuri border town of Mastarei came under attack. Standing there were those who had just fled. They sat and watched their homes burn, staying to see if their loved ones would emerge. news.sky.com/story/refugees-…

At least 435 children have been killed and 2025 injured in the past 100 days of conflict in Sudan - latest UNICEF figures. That is a minimum average of more than one child injured for every hour of this war. Insanity.

Despite the timber trade’s central role in eastern Afghanistan’s economy, harvesting these vast woodlands comes at a steep cost to other resources, as well as to the local ecology. 🔗 bit.ly/3P0rmq4 📸 @kernhendricks

Since 2010, the Kharkiv Institute of Physics and Technology has helped train nuclear scientists and technicians to work with neutron sources for medical research. But Russian missiles have put this mission at risk. @kernhendricks in @undarkmag. ow.ly/T3ZC50O9Bbb

Latest @planet Skysat high-resolution imagery shows at least 7 fuel storage tankers at Sevastopol port in Russia occupied #Crimea being damaged after a drone strike a few days ago. Environmental impact risks seems to be localized and mainly air pollution from combustion.

My latest for @undarkmag. In March of last year, a subcritical research reactor facility in eastern Ukraine was struck by Russian rockets. Although the reactor itself wasn't damaged, critical automated safety systems were affected.🧵 undark.org/2023/05/01/keepin…

As the Taliban's rule dumps #Afghanistan's economy, poor workers resort to logging for an income, further impacting the few remaining forests and adding another environmental woe to a long list. Gripping story and photos by @kernhendricks for @sciam scientificamerican.com/artic…

Amnesty thread on 2 years since the National Strike in Colombia, using images "produced by artificial intelligence". There were very brave activists and photographers from that day who are likely willing to share real images.
