We need your help to protect the archives. Please consider supporting our campaign to build backup infrastructure outside of corporate clouds. We must protect the evidence.
1/ Don't let tech oligarchs delete the evidence. Don't let them rewrite the history of the genocide. We build memory at Databases for Palestine. Without memory, there can not be justice. We need your help.

This was painful to build: you may now search the @databases4pal archive by the number of people Israel massacred or maimed in a single event. Important note: we only have a comprehensive archive of large massacres starting the 2nd half of Sep 2024.
Replying to @receipts_lol
Is it possible/useful to add a search filters that’s ‘range of casualties’? I’m thinking of this situation where I wanted to look up which massacre had ~60 deaths from one family, bc the corpses are just now being dug up

Our websites will be unavailable for roughly 30 minutes, due to planned downtime for maintenance, starting in about one hour.
We have outgrown our primary server's storage capacity. We will upgrade our storage today, at 7pm Jerusalem time (in one hour). We expect about a half hour of down time across all our websites.

2/3 - The database reveals that the IDF forced children and elderly Palestinians to serve as human shields, sometimes forcing them to wear an IDF uniform to draw fire. The IDF often tortured or murdered the human shields, and sometimes attached explosives to them.

1/2 - We refined our methodology page Stop Murdering Journalists. "The right of a journalist to do their job without being murdered is absolute. It is not contingent upon our judgement of the quality of their work, their political views or past affiliations."

2/2 - This update was made possible thanks to WITNESS Data adding basemap selection to their embedded maps. We are migrating all of our mapping software to maps.witnessdata.org, largely out of fear that Palestine archives will be targeted for deplatforms by corporate tech.

New feature: we now display the "yellow line" on all geolocated uploads and events. Please note: This is the original IDF boundary posted in December of last year, not the current reality on the ground (which is even worse).

New feature on Genocide dot live: photographs. Until today, the site was just video archival. We now archive photographs, with the same detailed categorization as videos. Photos will be added to the map soon. Without memory, there can be no justice. 🙏🇵🇸🪁

Their stories continue.
We are honored to publish the first tribute to a martyred journalist from Gaza, written by a displaced journalist from Gaza. Israel wants to erase the memory of the martyred journalists. Their stories are not over.
