Some other Palestinian Fundraisers I want to share

These are Palestinian fundraisers my friend from my uni’s Palestine solidarity encampment asked me to share. Both are Gazan students and writers seeking evacuation funds. 

Eman Alhaj Ali

Eman is a 22-year-old English literature and translation student. She is a writer and has published her writing in different news outlets including Al Jazeera. She has 4 young siblings: Doaa (6), Abduallah (8), Yousef (11), and Ahmad (12). Eman seeks to evacuate herself and her family and to complete her education abroad.

You can find her on Instagram here: eman.alhajali. You can see all the writing she has done on her IG (she has even written for news media like Al Jazeera, Middle East Eye, and The New Arab!))

Currently $40,679 USD raised of $70,000 target.

Here is a link to the writing Eman has written for Al Jazeera:

Muhammed Elbaba

Muhammed has just finished high school and was planning to become a pediatrician. He has 4 siblings. He is a talented student who is very skilled in language and has even cooperated with international television stations. He has received special training in journalism and media because of this. He has now lost his home and his family members have been killed and injured. He is raising funds to 1) treat his brother who is injured and suffering from amenia, 2) evacuate out of Gaza, and 3) continue his dream of studying abroad.

You can find his Instagram here: mohmd_elbaba. You can see that he has had his account since 2020 and has been geotagged in Gaza in his 2022 posts.

Currently $14,619 USD raised of $35,000 target.

As far as I know, neither of them have a Tumblr account. I hope you will still share and donate if you can to both of them!

The wanton destruction of mosques and churches

Article text:

Since 7 October, Israel has attacked a series of historical and cultural marvels in the besieged Gaza Strop.

The targeting of our heritage indicates that Israel is intent on erasing it.

This week, the Great Mosque in Gaza City was subjected to an Israeli airstrike.

Also known as the al-Omari mosque, it is 1,400 years old.

It was a place of serenity. Now a large part of it is destroyed.

Once a hub for prayers and enlightenment, Its grandeur was woven into the fabric of our region.

One of the largest mosques in Palestine, it housed a library of documents and rare books within its walls. It was a vital repository of knowledge.

If you listen carefully outside it, you could hear tales of ancient wisdom being whispered on the breeze.

Nestled in the Daraj neighborhood of Gaza City, the mosque shared an embrace with the historic Souq al-Qaysariyya, Arabic for “Caesar’s market.”

One day earlier, Israel attacked the Othman Bin Qashqar mosque in the al-Zaytoun area of Gaza City, claiming lives and wreaking havoc on nearby homes.

Dating back to the thirteenth century, the Othman Bin Qashqar mosque was not merely a place of worship. It was a testament to Gaza’s rich history.

This horrific war has also seen the Sayid al-Hashim mosque damaged by Israel. It is believed to hold the tomb of Hashim bin Abd Manaf, the Prophet Mohammed’s great-grandfather.

Christian places of worship have not been spared, either.

The Church of Saint Porphyrius dates back to 425 and was later renovated in 1856. It, too, has been attacked by Israel over the past two months.

Numerous museums and cultural centers have been bombed in various parts of Gaza.

When these structures are damaged or destroyed, so is a piece of human history.

The cultural vandalism witnessed in Gaza underscores the urgency of safeguarding heritage. When will the world’s powerful governments and institutions stand against the obliteration of irreplaceable treasures?
