Fake news. It's merely a re-send of the patches; nothing landed yet.
The Phoronix article and their title makes that clear; you editorialised it to state differently. (Also, that's...cringe.)
Israel Attacks North Gaza Hospital for Fifth Time
In north Gaza, Israel’s campaign of systematic slaughter, destruction and starvation is now in its ninth week.
Meanwhile, at Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya, north Gaza, the United Nations reported that a team of six physicians from the Medical Emergency Rescue Committee in Indonesia was able to reach the hospital as part of a medical mission, delivering a fuel tank and medical supplies.
The UN stated that the hospital, which now hosts 63 patients including nine in the intensive care unit, has been functioning with extremely limited resources. It has been relentlessly attacked over the last two months.
Dr. Ahmed al-Kahlout, the director of the intensive care unit at Kamal Adwan, was killed in an Israeli attack on Friday as he reportedly entered the gate of the hospital.

Copying this from another conversation about it:
I saw the Tv glow is horror for queer people. If ur cishet it won't hit the same
::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
It's about failing to recognize yourself as trans an the inherent terror of living in a body that feels like a prison.
So if you can't relate to that the message is probably lost

It also means that any "security" from China they're touting is bypassed by simpling gaining access to these backdoors and thus access to everything with no effort.
