1) TURN OFF your phone’s LOCATION BEFORE LEAVING the house so that you can’t be traced. 2) use SCREENSHOTS and SCREEN-RECORDING features so that the data can’t be traced + make sure to blur/erase/hide or simply avoid people’s faces.

3) HIDE YOUR IDENTITy, wear a mask or kuffiya on your head+hide tattoos/etc. 4) make sure to WRITE important phone numbers you might need on yourself or piece of paper you keep on yourself in case you get arrested or lose yourself in the crowd.

5) TURN OFF FACE ID. if your phone is seized they can’t force you to type out your password but can use your face to unlock it against your will. 6) LET SOMEONE YOU TRUST KNOW you’ll be there so that they can have your back from the outside in case something happens. BE SAFE ❤️.

“Both sides” is bad when it comes to the occupation of Palestine - but not when it comes to rising hatred against Jews & Muslims in the west, and you contribute nothing to the cause by minimizing & dismissing the dangerous antisemitism happening and how normalized it’s becoming.

As of today, we’ve helped 22 children undergoing cancer treatment in Gaza travel to continue treatment, and we’ll continue facilitating care for more children outside of Gaza. This wouldn't have been possible without coordination between the U.S., regional partners, and @StJude.
