Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, where Israel has been carrying out air, land, and sea attacks for nearly 5 months and has blocked the entrance of all kinds of aid, began to consume wild plants as food.

“People selling herbs just want to make an income. We have no source of income. People want to feed their children,” said Ahmed Fayyad, a pharmacy student who sells herbs.

Another seller, Abu Ali, said that herbs are currently the cheapest thing on the market and are widely available because they grow on their own.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), one-fourth of the population in the Gaza Strip is on the verge of famine.

Mass Protests in Iran Against Israeli Attacks After Friday Prayers

On Jun 20, 2025

Hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets after Friday prayers to protest Israel’s recent attacks on the country. The largest gatherings occurred in the capital, Tehran, where demonstrators marched following prayers at Tehran University.

High-ranking officials, including Iran’s Constitutional Court head Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei and former IRGC commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, joined the protest. Participants waved Iranian, Palestinian, and resistance group flags, and trampled on Israeli and US flags laid on the ground.

Protesters held banners reading “Down with Israel”, “Down with the US”, and “The Zionist regime will be destroyed”, while chanting slogans such as “We stand behind our leader”, “Everyone who clashed with Khamenei will eventually be destroyed”, and “Our right to nuclear weapons”.
