🍉🇵🇸 eSims for Gaza masterpost 🇵🇸🍉
Which eSims are currently being called for?
Connecting Humanity is calling for:
Nomad (“regional Middle East” plan): code NOMADCNG
Simly (“Palestine” plan)
Gaza Online is calling for:
Holafly (“Israel” and “Egypt” plans): code HOLACNG
Nomad (“regional Middle East” plan): code NOMADCNG (can now be used multiple times from the same email)
Airalo (“Middle East and North Africa” plan)
Sparks (“Israel” plan)
Numero (“Egypt” plan)
For Connecting Humanity: if you sent an eSim more than two weeks ago and it is still valid and not yet activated, reply to the email in which you originally sent the eSim. To determine whether the eSim is still valid, scan the QR code with a smartphone; tap the yellow button that reads “Cellular plan”; when a screen comes up reading “Activate eSIM,” click the button that says “Continue.” If a message comes up reading “eSIM Cannot Be Added: This code is no longer valid. Contact your carrier for more information,” the eSim is activated, expired, or had an error in installation, and should not be sent. It is very important not to re-send invalid eSims, since people may walk several kilometers to access wifi to connect their eSims only to find out that they cannot be activated.
If a screen appears reading “Activate eSIM: An eSIM is ready to be activated” with a button asking you to “Continue,” do not click “Continue” to activate the eSim on your phone; exit out of the screen and reply to the email containing that QR code.
Be sure you're looking at the original post, as this will be continually updated. Any new instructions about replying to emails for specific types of unactivated plans will also appear here.
Check the notes of blackpearlblasts's eSim post, as well as fairuzfan's 'esim' tag, for referral and discount codes.
How do I purchase an eSim?
If you cannot download an app or manage an eSim yourself, send funds to Crips for eSims for Gaza (Visa; Mastercard; Paypal; AmEx; Canadian e-transfer), or to me (venmo @gothhabiba; paypal.me/Najia; cash app $NajiaK, with note “esims” or similar; check the notes of this post for updates on what I've purchased.)
You can purchase an eSim yourself using a mobile phone app, or on a desktop computer (with the exception of Simly, which does not have a desktop site). See this screenreader-accessible guide to purchasing an eSim through each of the five services that the Connecting Humanity team is calling for (Simly, Nomad, Mogo, Holafly, and Airalo).
Send a screenshot of the plan's QR code to [email protected]. Be sure to include the app used, the word "esim," the type of plan (when an app has more than one, aka "regional Middle East" versus "Palestine"), and the amount of data or time on the plan, in the subject line or body of your email.
Message me if you have any questions or if you need help purchasing an eSim through one of these apps.
If you’re going to be purchasing many eSims at once, see Jane Shi’s list of tips.
Which app should I use?
Try to buy an eSim from one of the apps that the team is currently calling for (see above).
If the team is calling for multiple apps:
Nomad is best in terms of data price, app navigability, and ability to top up when they are near expiry; but eSims must be stayed on top of, as you cannot top them up once the data has completely run out. Go into the app settings and make sure your "data usage" notifcations are turned on.
Simly Middle East plans cannot be topped up; Simly Palestine ones can. Unlike with Nomad, data can be topped up once it has completely run out.
Holafly has the most expensive data, and top-ups don't seem to work.
Mogo has the worst user interface in my opinion. It is difficult or impossible to see plan activation and usage.
How much data should I purchase?
Mirna el-Helbawi has been told that large families may all rely on the same plan for data (by setting up a hotspot). Some recipients of eSim plans may also be using them to upload video.
For those reasons I would recommend getting the largest plan you can afford for plans which cannot be topped up: namely, Simly "Middle East" plans, and Holafly plans (they say you can top them up, but I haven't heard of anyone who has gotten it to work yet).
For all other plans, get a relatively small amount of data (1-3 GB, a 3-day plan, etc.), and top up the plan with more data once it is activated. Go into the app’s settings and make sure low-data notifications are on, because a 1-GB eSIM can expire very quickly.
Is there anything else I need to do?
Check back regularly to see if the plan has been activated. Once it's been activated, check once a day to see if data is still being used, and how close the eSim is to running out of data or to expiring; make sure your notifications are on.
If the eSim hasn't been activated after three weeks or so, reply to the original email that you sent to Gaza eSims containing the QR code for that plan.
If you purchased the eSim through an app which has a policy of starting the countdown to auto-expiry a certain amount of time after the purchase of the eSim, rather than only upon activation (Nomad does this), then also reply to your original e-mail once you're within a few days of this date. If you're within 12 hours of that date, contact customer service and ask for a credit (not a refund) and use it to purchase and send another eSim.
How can I tell if my plan has been activated? How do I top up a plan?
The Connecting Humanity team recommends keeping your eSims topped up once they have been activated.
See this guide on how to tell if your plan has been activated, how to top up plans, and (for Nomad) how to tell when the auto-expiry will start. Keep topping up the eSim for as long as the data usage keeps ticking up. This keeps a person or family connected for longer, without the Connecting Humanity team having to go through another process of installing a new eSim.
If the data usage hasn't changed in a week or so, allow the plan to expire and purchase another one.
What if I can't afford a larger plan, or don't have time or money to keep topping up an eSim?
I have set up a pool of funds out of which to buy and top up eSims, which you can contribute to by sending funds to my venmo (@gothhabiba), PayPal (paypal.me/Najia), or cash app ($NajiaK) (with note “esims” or similar). Check the notes of this post for updates on what I've purchased, which plans are active, and how much data they've used.
Crips for eSims for Gaza also has a donation pool to purchase eSims and top them up.
Gaza Online (run by alumni of Gaza Sky Geeks) accepts monetary donations to purchase eSims as needed.
What if my eSim has not been activated, even after I replied to my email?
Make sure that the QR code you sent was a clear screenshot, and not a photo of a screen; and that you didn’t install the eSim on your own phone by scanning the QR code or clicking “install automatically."
Possible reasons for an eSim not having been activated include: it was given to a journalist as a back-up in case the plan they had activated expired or ran out of data; there was an error during installation or activation and the eSim could no longer be used; the eSim was installed, but not activated, and then Israeli bombings destroyed the phone, or forced someone to leave it behind.
An eSim that was sent but couldn’t be used is still part of an important effort and learning curve. Errors in installation, for example, are happening less often than they were in the beginning of the project.
Why should I purchase an eSim? Is there any proof that they work?
Israel is imposing near-constant communications blackouts on Gaza. The majority of the news that you are seeing come from Gaza is coming from people who are connected via eSim.
eSims also connect people to news. People are able to videochat with their family for the first time in months, to learn that their family members are still alive, to see their newborn children for the first time, and more, thanks to eSims.
Some of this sharing of news saves lives, as people have been able to flee or avoid areas under bombardment, or learn that they are on evacuation lists.
Why are different plans called for at different times?
Different eSims work in different areas of the Gaza Strip (and Egypt, where many refugees currently are). The team tries to keep a stockpile of each type of sim on hand.
Is there anything else I can do to help?
There is an urgent need for more eSims. Print out these posters and place them on bulletin boards, in local businesses, on telephone poles, or wherever people are likely to see them. Print out these foldable brochures to inform people about the initiative and distribute them at protests, cafes and restaurants, &c. Also feel free to make your own brochures using the wording from this post.
The Connecting Humanity team is very busy connecting people to eSims and don't often have time to answer questions. Check a few of Mirna El Helbawi's most recent tweets and see if anyone has commented with any questions that you can answer with the information in this post.

As Nigeria braces for the #EndBadGovernance protests scheduled for August 1, a significant number of senators, members of the House of Representatives, and some Federal Executive Council (FEC) members are reportedly leaving the country. These departures are being justified as medical checkups and summer holidays, but sources indicate they are preemptive measures in response to the anticipated protests. The National Assembly chambers were unexpectedly closed last Tuesday, providing lawmakers time to secure visas and travel arrangements before the protests. This move reflects heightened concerns over safety and security amid the expected civil unrest. Read Also: Dollar to Naira Exchange Rate at Black Market (Aboki FX) July 29, 2024: USD to NGN CBN Rate Several lawmakers, speaking anonymously to Daily Sun, expressed fears of becoming targets should the nationwide protests materialize. They pointed to the violent incidents during the 2020 #EndSARS protests, which saw many of them attacked and their properties vandalized. A senator, who preferred to remain unnamed, highlighted the particular vulnerability of lawmakers compared to ministers, governors, and presidential aides who enjoy extensive security protection. "Lawmakers are more accessible to the public, making them potential targets during major uprisings," he explained. Read Also: Kenneth Okonkwo Dumps Labour Party, Parts Ways with Peter Obi He continued, “We were supposed to adjourn for our annual break next week. But we had a meeting where many lawmakers complained to the leadership of the National Assembly about the imminent threats to their lives if the protests were eventually held. We begged them to bring back the adjournment date. They listened to us. “Lawmakers who cannot afford the needed security are leaving until the madness calms down. Some of us are not going to Europe or America. Some of our colleagues are even in Ghana and South Africa. You know for holders of diplomatic passports, it is often visa on arrival. Read Also : Kenneth Okonkwo Dumps Labour Party, Parts Ways with Peter Obi “As I’m talking to you, I’ve secured my ticket, and I’m leaving Abuja this weekend. President Bola Tinubu is protected. All his ministers have enough security. Governors enjoy the same. I don’t have anyone to protect me if the protesters should attack. It is safer to leave until things calm down.” A travel agent at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja confirmed a surge in emergency ticket bookings for National Assembly members heading to Europe, the Middle East, and other African countries. This demand has significantly increased the cost of international flights, almost doubling the usual price. The travel agent shared, “Summer tickets have gone up because of the sudden demand for them by the government’s officials. Many senators and their colleagues in the House of Representatives are the ones asking for the tickets. Some ministers are also getting tickets, claiming that they’re going for medical checkups, but I doubt it. Also Read : Three PDP Lawmakers, Scores of Supporters Defect to APC “I booked a flight for one senator on Saturday to the United States of America for almost $3,000 for a return ticket. South Africa and the United Kingdom are the most sought-after tickets by lawmakers. Others are asking for tickets to Turkey, Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Even Ghana is also on the list. “But one of them jokingly told me that he was leaving Nigeria to save his head. He said he’s not sure how the protests will turn out. I could see the fear in his eyes. I got a ticket to Turkey for him.” As the protests draw near, the exodus of lawmakers and politicians underscores the mounting tension and fear of potential violence, echoing the unrest seen during the #EndSARS movement.

Smart Cities and Luxury Living: The Evolution of Dubai's Real Estate
Dubai, the glittering jewel of the United Arab Emirates, has established itself as a global hub for real estate investment. Known for its towering skyscrapers, luxury residences, and state-of-the-art infrastructure, Dubai's real estate market continues to flourish, attracting investors from around the world. This article delves into the key factors driving the real estate boom in Dubai, the opportunities it presents, and the challenges it faces.
A Magnet for Investors
Dubai's real estate market has been a magnet for investors due to several compelling reasons. Firstly, the city offers a high standard of living with world-class amenities, including top-notch healthcare, education, and entertainment options. The cosmopolitan lifestyle, combined with a safe and secure environment, makes Dubai an attractive destination for expatriates and locals alike.
Secondly, the strategic location of Dubai as a global business hub plays a crucial role. With its position at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa, Dubai provides unparalleled connectivity through its state-of-the-art airports and seaports. This accessibility enhances its appeal to multinational companies and investors seeking to establish a presence in the Middle East.
Government Initiatives and Policies
The proactive role of the government in shaping the real estate landscape cannot be overlooked. The introduction of investor-friendly policies, such as long-term visas for property investors and retirees, has significantly boosted investor confidence. Additionally, the government’s emphasis on creating freehold zones, where foreigners can buy and own property, has opened up the market to international buyers.
Moreover, initiatives like the Dubai Plan 2040 aim to enhance the urban infrastructure, ensuring sustainable growth. The plan focuses on creating integrated communities, improving public transport, and increasing green spaces, making Dubai an even more attractive place to live and invest in.
Technological Advancements
Dubai is at the forefront of integrating technology into its real estate sector. The adoption of smart city technologies, such as the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and blockchain, has revolutionized the market. Smart homes, equipped with the latest technology for energy efficiency and security, are becoming increasingly popular.
Blockchain technology, in particular, is streamlining real estate transactions by ensuring transparency and reducing fraud. The Dubai Land Department (DLD) has implemented blockchain for property registration, making the process faster and more secure. These technological advancements not only enhance the investor experience but also position Dubai as a leader in real estate innovation.
Challenges and Considerations
Despite the myriad opportunities, the Dubai real estate market is not without challenges. One of the significant issues is the oversupply of properties, which can lead to price fluctuations and affect rental yields. The market's cyclical nature means that investors need to be cautious and well-informed about market trends.
Another challenge is the impact of global economic conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic, for instance, had a temporary dampening effect on the market. However, Dubai's quick recovery and resilience showcase its robustness and ability to adapt to changing circumstances.
Conclusion
Dubai's real estate market remains a beacon of opportunity, driven by a combination of strategic location, investor-friendly policies, and technological advancements. While challenges exist, the proactive measures taken by the government and the city's inherent advantages make it a compelling choice for real estate investment. As Dubai continues to evolve and innovate, its real estate sector is poised for sustained growth, offering lucrative prospects for investors worldwide.

How To Make Your Dream Uganda Tour A Reality
Uganda is a distinctive safari spot situated in east Africa. It is brimming with amazing beauty wherever you witness it. Visitors can relish one of the finest climates in the world. It is perpetually sunny and green there throughout the year. Uganda is the habitat of the renowned, threatened mountain gorillas. It boasts the largest number of mountain gorillas in the world. Uganda is attracting more and more tourists as a safari place.
It’s not surprising that most travelers in India are eyeing Uganda for their next holiday journey from India. But how will you make the Uganda tour from India successful? You need to follow certain proven yet easy steps while planning a successful Uganda tour package from India to this gorilla destination. Here are a few steps to make your dream journey a reality.
Decide where to go
With 10 national parks and 4 wildlife reserves, numerous towns, ethnic villages, and societies to pick from, choosing where to visit in Uganda from India can be overwhelming. The first step is figuring out the type of holiday you desire or the particular sights you’d like to see and activities you’d like to do. Are you looking for a classic safari experience or enjoy discovering great ancient cultures or trekking into ancient jungles or everything in your Uganda tour itinerary? Consult with a leading tour operator & travel management company regarding your plan.
Decide when to go
After you’ve picked your destination, the next step is to determine when to go. Uganda has two ideal travel seasons that most tourists prefer; the dry season and the rainy season. Most tourists will visit Uganda during the dry season (June to September and December to February). It is the prime time for gorilla tracking excursions and observing the wildlife & bird life.
Book your tour activities and lodging
Next, you need to decide whether you’re going to travel solo or take the assistance of a tour guide. Are you planning the Uganda tour from India yourself or need a tour operator to take care of the local travel logistics? It is ideal to take the help of a travel operator like savanna safari which offers exclusive Uganda tour packages from India! They provide comprehensive safari packages that include itineraries, accommodations, meals, transport, activities, gorilla permits, and guides. You settle the bill with the tour operator, and they’ll cover the cost of the service provider and handle your whole journey. Contact your chosen local operator beforehand because permits are limited to a few individuals a day.
Reserve your flights
Flights to Uganda can be costly, and a scarce number of airlines often implies that seats are scarce. For the best prices, book your flight as early as possible. Try to communicate with your tour operator to arrange airport transfers.
Buy travel insurance
Travel insurance is essential while planning your Uganda tour packages from India! It will cover your medical costs, trip cancellation, loss of valuables, baggage loss, or theft.
Check your visa requirements
Uganda’s immigration requires all persons intending to travel to Uganda for holiday, tourism, etc.. So keep this in mind & get ready a few months before your departure date,
Buy your travel equipment
The fun part of planning your waiting trip to Uganda comes from buying all your specialized travel equipment. Your shopping list may include items from mosquito repellents to a good set of binoculars, a quality camera, and a pair of durable hiking shoes. Be prepared for all kinds of weather. Another vital buy is a first aid kit, & fill it with any personal medicines and all things you’ll require to heal minor aches and wounds.
Plan how to handle money
Plan how to handle money a few weeks before your trip. Carrying large amounts of cash around isn’t safe in Uganda. Thankfully, debit and credit cards are accepted at nearly all contemporary safari camps and lodges in Uganda. Before your journey, find out this information from your local safari operator.
Conclusion
Researching about Uganda ahead of time is a great way to increase your excitement level & local knowledge. An online travel guide like savanna safari can give you valuable insight into a country’s history, culture, and lesser-known things to see and do. Book the best Uganda tour packages from savanna safari. They offer great deals on Uganda packages from India with the best price guarantee. They guarantee you will receive top Uganda tour deals and relish your safari journey with relatives or buddies.

How To Plan An Affordable African Safari
Everyone should take an African safari at least once. It is a chance to let go of all the stresses of daily life and experience the primal nature call. You'll be able to witness unique fauna and flora in their natural habitats. You will be enthralled by the incredible scenery of the African Savannah. It is a popular myth that African safaris are exclusive to the rich - but the truth is, with a little careful planning, there's no reason why the once-in-a-lifetime adventure should cost more than any other kind of international trip.
Select Your Destination Take your time
The first step to booking an affordable luxury safari Africa is to choose the best destination for your budget. East Africa's most famous destinations for safari are associated with extravagant safari lodges as well as sky-high park fees; and as such safaris to countries like Kenya and Tanzania are often better suited to those with cash to burn. Botswana and Zambia aren't the only ones to be troublesome because of the distance from their most well-known reserves. Charter flights are the most efficient option to travel to the Okavango Delta. This will cost you more.
The most affordable safari destinations are those that are easily accessible and have a wide range of options in terms of game reserves as well as operators, and have fees in local currencies rather than US dollars. Both South Africa and Namibia offer an excellent infrastructure for self-drive safaris as well for camping safaris. Zimbabwe is another alternative, due to the cost-effectiveness of lodging, food and transportation. Think about the costs to get there and the exchange rate and the cost for game drives and park fees when choosing your destination.
Destinations that don't require vaccinations or visas aid in keeping prices down.
Use a Local Operator
Whatever you do, local tour guides, safari companies and accommodations typically provide lower rates than international businesses. Particularly, selecting a local operator can be an excellent option to save money for those with their eyes set on East African destinations like the Serengeti or the Maasai Mara. Locally booking is a fantastic way to save money and also allows for more flexibility (great for those who have a meeting on the road and wish to embark on an Caprivi road trip or simply stop at Kruger National Park). But it can be difficult to make reservations prior to time since the majority of companies are not accessible upon the time of arrival.
Group Safari
There are many options for safaris with a group. From minibus excursions catering to older travelers to social backpacker tours with well-known companies overland like Nomad Africa Adventure Tours, there are a myriad of. Group safaris are an excellent choice for two reasons. Firstly, they're cheaper than private safaris, allowing you to share the costs of transport and accommodation as well as allowing access to discounts for groups on park fees and guides. They can also be an ideal option to make friends and make new acquaintances. This social aspect can become an issue if you don't connect with your group, however, while some may find the fixed itinerary of a group tour constricting.
Enjoy a Self-Drive Safari
People who prefer a bit more freedom may want to consider a self-drive safari, whereby you hire a car and drive independently to (and around) the reserve you've chosen to visit. The pros are manifold You can design your itinerary to meet your preferences, and alter it whenever you like. You decide which places to go to take photos, which routes you can take within the park, and even where you will stay at night. A lot of self-drive vehicles have the option of a roof-top tent, which keeps costs of lodging to a minimum. The lack of a local guide is one negative. It is also important to choose a place with safe roads and parks for safaris where you can operate your vehicle on your own. Both are common across South Africa and Namibia.
Compromise on Accommodation
Whatever type of luxury African safari you pick compromises on your accommodation could aid in reducing costs significantly. A majority of National Parks in Southern Africa have public camping facilities, from full-service camps complete with restaurants, waterholes and electricity to wilderness sites with little more than the space needed to pitch your tent. They're not extravagant, but they're incredibly cost-effective. These places provide the romantic experience of camping under canvas in the African bush. Sesriem Camp, Namibia's Sossusvlei dunes sea, is a popular choice. Reservations must be made at least a month in advance.
Avoid luxury lodges within the reserve if you want the warmth of a roof and four walls. Instead, locate a budget hotel close to the gates of the park and arrange tours of the reserve for a day. This choice isn't without a disadvantage, however: you won't have the opportunity to take part in pre-dawn drives.
Travel during the low season
The season of rain in Africa coincides with the season of low-cost travel. This is the time when safari tours and hotel prices drop significantly. However, lower prices are not the only reason to visit during this time. Rains bring lush landscapes and fewer people. They also coincide with the baby season for many of the African herbivores. But, animals are able to be scattered in the an abundance of water and food and it can be difficult to see them, particularly in dense vegetation. Some camps and lodges close during the rainy season and the roads aren't always easy to navigate in the event of flooding.
Concentrate on a Single Game Reserve
In order to experience as many wildlife and habitats as they can, many visitors visit multiple game reserves. You can reduce the cost of rental vehicles, flights and transfers by selecting the one park. Choose what you would like to visit. If your priority is catching the annual Great Migration, for example concentrate your efforts on Serengeti or the Maasai Mara. If you want to complete the Big Five is important to you, then choose an important reserve such as the Kruger or Hwange National Park.
