Meanwhile...
The death toll in Sudan's ongoing civil war is estimated to be significantly higher than previously reported, with studies suggesting that over 150,000 people may have died since the conflict began in April 2023. The majority of these deaths are attributed to violence, preventable diseases, and starvation, particularly affecting vulnerable populations in regions like Khartoum and Darfur.

Doesn't get as much attention because why? Muslim on Muslim? Brown on Brown? And yet it involves (unlike Gaza) systemic targeting of civilians based on ethnicity.

Both are terrible and yes i saw a lot of coverage of that genocide too. I don't act like i care about Sudan while defending Israel 57 years occupation like you do
Occupation of Gaza?
Go educate your self instead of embarassing yourself.
Occupation is not just having soldiers in the land. Control over borders, airspace, and territorial waters, as well as its population registry, and movement of goods and people is also occupation like israel do in gaza
All the UN report consider gaza and the west bank occupied
It's sad how quickly those rushing to defend Israeli violence fail to understand anything other than basic and easily disproven talking points they've used.
In other comments they didn't think there was any violence before Oct 7.so not at all surprising they didn't realize Gaza has been occupied and controlled by Israel
As others said, actually do research before rushing to the defense of anyone.
Just one example of the occupation is Israel controls all water in Gaza, including rain water
