I am the eldest brother in my family, and the one responsible for protecting and caring for them. I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders, especially as I watch my younger siblings grow up amidst fear, hunger, and destruction.

Lana, 9 years old; Mohammed, 5 years old; and Mustafa, 4 years old—innocent children who deserve a life of safety and joy, yet their lives have turned into a daily nightmare.

I want to die in Gaza. I don’t care much about my life, but please, don’t make me watch my little siblings die in front of me.

We desperately need your help to evacuate them from this hell. There isn’t much money left to complete their evacuation, and every moment of delay could cost them their lives.

Please donate now and share the campaign. You could be their only hope for survival💔🙏

Please help Sahar and her family!

Sahar and her children are in danger every day, constantly being displaced. They are afraid and fear for their future. Their campaign has barely gotten any donations, they are nowhere near their goal. I myself am unable to donate, but I hope you can! Any amount, no matter how big or small, will be able to help them get closer to their goal!

We are liars...

We are not well. We do not sleep at night with thoughts that haunt us

And fear eats our hearts 😭

We suddenly fall silent in the middle of any conversation.. and our hearts are exhausted and their beats are painful, so we are in a lot of pain 💔

We suffer for our lives...our condition...our parents and children...those we love 😭

The pain affected everything...

And routine is deadly and very deadly 😞

If someone asked us how we were, we would say we were fine

We are liars.. We write about contentment and gratitude, and we write about overcoming and forgetting, and if we feel pain, we forget what we wrote and cry..

It's not for nothing, but we are humans

Every day in war is very bitter

Our hearts have been violated 😟

Help me protect my family, they are the most beautiful thing I have

You are our only hope 🙏🙏

I'd like to highlight a fundraiser for a bright young woman @drdarine Darine Dawoud. She and her family have lost more than any of us can imagine, and through this, she working hard to get her medical degree and supporting her family.

ID in Alt

In spite of her education being tragically interrupted by the war and ongoing genocide, she has been using her knowledge to help the people around her, and is even now trying to continue her education, even under such harsh and inhumane circumstances.

And though Darine works hard to help other people in need, by volunteering at the refugee camps and providing medical aid, we still must support her and support her family.

Her fundraiser has been active since February (that's eight whole months!!) and has only raised a fraction of its goal. She has an achievable goal of $30,000 and, in eight months, only raised just over $5,000. We cannot fail Darine and her family.

Let's push for a boost in this fundraiser as it has been stagnant. Darine deserves better and we can do better for her.

Last evening, Nuseirat refugee camp was bombed once again by Israeli missiles. The strike targeted a residential building and resulted in at least 8 martyrs among those who were present.

(Photo provided by @handalapls who was at the scene -- ID in Alt)

Translation of the Telegram screenshot below:

First post: "First moments of the occupation bombing a residential apartment inside "Yaffa" tower in Nuseirat refugee camp in the center of the Gaza Strip, resulting in the martyrdom and injury of a number of Palestinians" Second Post: "Update: 8 Martyrs, including children, and a number of wounded, as a result of the targeting of the fourth and fifth floors of Yaffa tower at the center of Nuseirat camp, in the center of Gaza Strip, among who have been identified: 1) Mohammed Arafat Murshed Abu Abdullah 2) His nephew/Arafat Abdullah Abu Abdullah 3) Mother of /Mohammed Arafat 4) Rami Ayesh Ahmad 5) Adam Arafat Murshed Abu Abdullah, 10 years old 6) Nasser Arafat Murshed Abu Abdullah, 13 years old 7) Layan Arafat Murshed Abu Abdullah, 14 years old 8) Lara Arafat Murshed Abu Abdullah, 17 years old

This video was taken by @handalapls at the scene of the bombing.

(Video description: A shaky camera video showing the aftermath of a bombing. The cameraman is navigating towards the building and calling out to someone called "Za'tar")

These bombings continue to happen day after day, whether it is in Nuseirat camp or other refugee camps across the Gaza Strip. People like @handalapls and every other Gazan who is sharing their story on tumblr are at risk of losing their lives every single day. Today they may be alive, tomorrow they may not, and this is the reality for every single Gazan right now.

This might seem like "just another incident" among thousands in the Gaza Strip, but if this happened anywhere else, the word would stop turning! Why are Palestinians any different? Why are Gazans different?

The genocide proceeds and life is moving on, but it should not! All eyes on Gaza! Save Gaza! Free Palestine!

And Please support @handalapls who provided me with this footage and photos:

And support Mohammed Zatr, who was also at the scene when this occurred:

This is our life in which we live under constant attacks and under difficult circumstances. Days and nights we are homeless, moving from one place to another in all circumstances that no one can imagine. Under bombing, at night, screaming and walking over decaying corpses. Scenes that I and my brothers will never forget. How can I forget the loss of my friends, neighbors and relatives? We lost everything. My books and clothes. We lost everything. Today I stand and I am tired, but I am trying to stand up in front of you and I ask you to help me. Please help me save myself and my family.

Read it once in your life, and never regret it. ✋✅

Do you feel bored of the posts asking for help from Gaza? You’re right, but imagine our situation as we live this war day after day for 13 months. Do you think we’re tired too?!!

Asking for help is not easy; it’s very embarrassing, especially for a family that used to live a decent life. My husband and I completed our university education with distinction, worked in respectable jobs, and were used to helping others, not asking for help. But the war has turned our lives into a nightmare; we lost our home, our sources of income, and even our ability to provide the simplest of needs.

I'm Hanan. For the past 13 months, we have been struggling to get healthy food and medicine for my child, whose weak body was attacked by infection, and for my elderly mother-in-law, who fell into a coma for several days and almost lost her life due to anemia caused by our inability to provide healthy food, as prices have risen more than 10 times. Now, we have run out of everything. While you are reading my message, my family and I are trying to survive amidst all kinds of suffering.

What was once a beautiful dream and reality has now become a nightmare. Starvation is one thing, but starving, freezing, and being forced to flee in the middle of the night when tanks suddenly arrive in your area, running for your life and your family’s life under fire, leaving behind everything you built over the years, and returning after 5 months of suffering in displacement and tents to find that your home, where you lived your happiest moments, is nothing but rubble, is something completely different! 💔😓

Can you feel my broken heart now? Can you imagine what I’m going through at this moment? Everything I am living now cannot be described with words, and every moment here is filled with pain and fear. We desperately need your help, as we live in hope of escaping Gaza to save our lives and live safely away from the explosions.

You might feel powerless to stop this genocide, but you can certainly save my family. We appeal to your compassionate hearts to help us escape this catastrophe, which the human mind cannot even fathom.

Please share our campaign with your family and friends. This will help us reach those who can help us directly. Be the reason to bring hope back to our hearts ♥️✨

Dear Friends, 🌷

I know you share my story out of love and humanity, and I am truly grateful for that. 🙏💚

the painful truth is that sharing alone does not feed the hungry or provide medicine for the sick. 💔

The cost of a bag of flour is $300, which is the main source of food for my family and is needed weekly just to make bread. We live in a tent my child trembles from hunger and cold, and all I can do is pray for him. 😥

Please, don’t just watch or share extend a helping hand. Even a small donation could be a lifeline for a hungry child or a suffering patient.🙏

Don’t close your eyes to our suffering. We are calling upon your humanity.

The last donation 20 hours ago!! 😓

Thanks to your generous donations, we were able to buy essential necessities that we couldn't do without, despite their high cost. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who contributed to feeding my child, even with a piece of bread 🙏💚. Your generosity gives us hope in facing these indescribable catastrophic circumstances 💔.
