Where is Hind?

Lara E. and Mikey B.
About this episode

This week Lara and Michael cover the story of the missing 6-year-old child by the name of Hind whose terrified phone calls circulated worldwide and the tragic disappearance of two civil defense workers who went looking for her. We just received an update today (after recording the pod) that Hind and the defense workers were murdered by the zionist entity. We also cover the zionist settlers blocking the entrance of aid into Gaza in violation of the ICJ order while Palestinian children die of starvation in Gaza. We report on the discovery of a mass grave of 30 bound numbered bodies in a school in Northern Gaza and comment on the long-term impact on the freedom struggle of the public narrative shifting to discuss the genocidal intent of the Zionist ideology.
