🇮🇱⚔🇵🇸Israel-Gaza Conflict: March 18-19 (Recap)
1️⃣ Al Jazeera journalist Ismail al-Ghoul has been freed after 12 hours in Israeli custody. Israeli forces beat him severely when they detained him during a raid on Gaza City’s al-Shifa Hospital.
2️⃣ The United Nations says it “stands against” harassment of journalists after al-Ghoul’s arrest, as rights group Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) calls incident “deliberate attempt” to cover up Israeli assault on al-Shifa Hospital.
3️⃣ UN chief Antonio Guterres says a new report warning that famine is now imminent in northern Gaza is an “appalling indictment” of the situation on the ground.
4️⃣ Israeli forces launched several missiles at military sites near the Syrian capital, Damascus, resulting in some “material damage”, according to the official SANA news agency.
5️⃣ Northern Gaza could be hit by famine any time between mid-March and May and more than 70 percent of Gaza’s 2.3 million population is facing “catastrophic hunger”, according to a UN-backed report.

THE COST OF THE AMERICAN DREAM HAS EXPLODED.
Owning a home.
Buying groceries.
Driving to work.
Paying insurance.
Even your morning coffee.
Nearly every major household expense costs dramatically more than it did just a few years ago.
Over the last 7 years:
• Coffee: +127%
• Home prices: +60%
• Auto insurance: +51%
• Gasoline: +49%
• Electricity: +44%
• Shelter: +35%
• Groceries: +33%
And that's before paying for healthcare, transportation, or eating out.
This is why so many families feel like they're falling behind even when they get a raise.
The biggest financial problem for millions of Americans is that everything is going up at the same time, while the government keeps showing a 2% inflation target.
