The War May Be Declared Over But Our Struggle Isn’t

Yesterday came the announcement of Trump’s 20 point proposal. People are saying the nightmare is finally over. We want to believe it. We hope this is the end. But is it really?

Tomorrow, we’ll try to return to our home. We don’t know if we’ll even be able to reach it. We don’t know if it’s still standing. We just pray it is.

After two years of surviving hell, we are exhausted physically, mentally, spiritually. These two years hold stories that will be told for decades.

To everyone who stood with us in any way, thank you. I say this on behalf of every man, woman, and child in Gaza.

I’m attaching photos I took throughout these years. They show only a fraction of what we endured. They will remain as a reminder of the hardship, of the sacrifices, of the ones we lost.

May our martyrs rest in peace. My beloved cousin Wade, my uncle Muin, you are not forgotten. We live carrying your memories.

And to everyone who amplified our voices, we will never forget you either.

Now a new chapter begins: rebuilding from zero. In fact, from below zero. So please don’t let any “agreement” make you think the suffering has ended.

Gaza still needs you. We still need you just as before.
