How the songbirds of Rafah help Palestinians cope with the terror of war
Canaries, lovebirds and goldfinches are muffling the sounds of Israel’s terrifying bombardment of Gaza with their songs.
Rafah, Gaza Strip – In downtown Rafah, near Al-Awda Mosque, a small bird flutters in a cage hanging on the outer wall of a school which is currently being used as a shelter for people who have been displaced by the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
Its soothing song catches the attention of Hassan Abu Jazar who has come here in search of birds to buy, prompting him to stop. He approaches the seller and requests a closer look, then gently turns the cage left and right.

Intrigued onlookers who are here to buy their own birds start to get impatient during his lengthy examination – checking the bird’s singing pitch, hearing about the times of day it is most active and asking detailed questions about its overall demeanour. They want him to get on with his purchase, so they can have a chance to look at the birds, too.
But Abu Jazar needs to be thorough – he wants to find a canary which will be chirpy, not quiet, and which sings at the right pitch before he commits to a purchase. And these birds do not come cheap – this one is priced at 150 shekels (just over $41).
The 23-year-old can’t suppress his smile. He has found the bird he wants.
Once sought after for their vibrant colours and soothing melodies, these birds now serve a very important purpose. They help Palestinians endure the thunderous sounds of explosions during the relentless Israeli shelling. Their song can also partially drown out – or at least provide a little distraction from – the humming sounds of hovering missile-bearing drones.
A shield against terror

Abu Jazar, who has been struggling with anxiety since the start of the war, has found great solace in the singing of the canaries he keeps in cages in his bedroom.
“The songs of the canaries can shield any space against the terror that comes with the violent sound of shelling,” he tells Al Jazeera. “They give me a sense of comfort that helps me endure the fear.”
His five birds, including the latest acquisition, are not loud enough to drown out the sound of explosions, but their gentle tones help calm him.
Abu Jazar, who lives in Tal as-Sultan in Rafah, is one of thousands grappling with the terror that Israeli shelling triggers.

More than one million children in the Gaza Strip are in dire need of mental health support, according to the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). Many in Gaza say they are comforted by the sound of birdsong [Mohamed Soleimane/Al Jazeera]
Drowning blasts with birdsong
Even before the war, Palestinians have long collected songbirds – canaries, goldfinches, lovebirds and sparrows – for their comforting melodies. Now, they’re becoming go-to mental health allies.
“The sounds of explosions from Israeli shelling are terrifying and there are no alternatives to calm the fear of children except the sounds of canaries,” says Raed al-Qudra, who has been displaced by the war from the centre of Khan Younis to an area south of the city.
Al-Qudra’s four daughters and two sons are among the more than one million children in the Gaza Strip who the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) estimates are in dire need of mental health and psychosocial support.
“My daughters love birds because their colours make them feel safer, calmer and more alive. We consider their presence in the house as part of the few means of entertainment remaining since the war,” he says.
Al-Qudra, who has been keeping birds for the past 10 years, first introduced his family to the power of birdsong two years ago, during Israel’s 2022 bombardment of the city. It helped calm them, he says.
Recently, he has been hoping to buy some more. Despite the harsh conditions of displacement, he has visited the Rafah markets repeatedly in search of birds. A few days ago, he managed to acquire three birds from a seller who agreed to sell them at a lower price than usual because of the harsh economic situation in Gaza.

Booming birds’ market
Four months after the October 7 attacks on southern Israel by Hamas, Israel’s military campaign has reduced most of the Gaza Strip to rubble. Aerial bombardments and ground invitations have resulted in the deaths of nearly 29,000 Palestinians, the majority of them children and women. Thousands more are feared buried in the ruins and are presumed dead.
Rafah, the focus of Israel’s latest military operation, has become Gaza’s most densely populated area, according to the UN. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who fled the onslaught in the northern and central regions of the enclave are now packed into the southernmost city. Amid the sprawling sea of refugee tents that now line its streets, an unlikely market for songbirds is thriving.
While some sellers have set up stalls, others wander up and down carrying birds in cages.
Tumblr media
Not everyone can afford to buy birds, but many come here anyway to enjoy the colours and peaceful chirps [Mohamed Soleimane/Al Jazeera]
Some customers approach the cages displayed on the street or hanging on the nearby walls of the shelter, to inspect the birds up close. Dedar lists the local names of their species. His stock includes canaries, lovebirds, breeds of passer birds (sparrows) and more.
Some potential buyers are dissuaded by the prices. Dedar also notes that birdfeed has surged in price from seven shekels ($1.90) to about 80 shekels (just over $22) per kilo.
Regardless of this steep rise in the cost of keeping a songbird, their popularity appears not to have waned.
“Customers are looking for breeds with soothing voices during this difficult time,” says Dedar. “Many of them purchase multiple birds to ensure a variety of melodies throughout the day, as some birds sing better during the day while others prefer the night”

🟡 SAT after Shabbat  - ISRAEL REALTIME - Connecting to Israel in Realtime
Shavua tov, Chodesh Tov - may we be blessed with a good new Jewish month of Tammuz and a good week with return of the hostages and success and safety for our warriors.
🔸DEAL OR NO DEAL?  Another round: Hamas informed Hezbollah that it agreed to the cease-fire proposal.  Despite Hamas announcements that it would give up the demand to end the war, no agreement yet and details remain “to be negotiated”.
🔸DEAL ANALYSIS - Abu Ali:  For a deal to go through, one of the following must happen:
1. Israel will give up its demand for the resumption of hostilities after the first phase of the deal.
2. Hamas will give up its demand for a permanent ceasefire in the first phase of the deal.
When you are told that there is progress and there is flexibility and there is a breakthrough, ask which of the parties gave up the demand that thwarted the deal last time.
▪️EUROPEAN HOSPITAL - KHAN YUNIS.. was evacuated when the IDF instructed the area, following rocket barrages from it, to clear out.  AND THEN immediately the FULL contents of the hospital, ALL THE MEDICAL EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIES, were stolen - looted.  They showed up in nearby markets the next day.
▪️PROTEST - ANTI-GOVT and FREE THE HOSTAGES.. Kaplan area, Tel Aviv weekend protest, LARGE.
▪️ECONOMY - Shekel value up: NIS 3.69 to US $1.
♦️IDF: a week of fighting in Sheja'ia, face-to-face encounters with terrorists, raids on Hamas combat compounds, locating many weapons and destroying captured buildings. As always, PILES of heavy weapons found, under civilian beds, rooms, etc.
♦️TARGETED ELIMINATION - BA’ALBEK, LEBANON.  Al-Arabiya sources: Maysam al-Attar, the target, is a Hezbollah military official who deals with missiles.  One dead reported, not clear if it was the target.
♦️AIRSTRIKE ON ROCKET LAUNCHERS SET UP IN HUMANITARIAN ZONE.. the rocket launcher was located in central Gaza's Deir al-Balah, adjacent to a shelter for displaced civilians.
♦️COUNTER-TERROR OPERATIONS - BALATA, SHECHEM area.. firefight, enemy wounded.  And KABLAN, south Shechem.
♦️LEBANON - variety of reports of IDF airstrikes and artillery, including at least 2 counter-strikes on launchers.
♦️SAMARIA - FORCES ATTACKED.. A terrorist was killed and 3 more terrorists were wounded while throwing Molotov cocktails at IDF forces, near the village of Beit Ur al-Fuka, Ramallah area.
🔺UNUSUAL: Palestinian security services are confiscating and neutralizing homemade explosive devices planted by the terrorists near the Tigra Mosque in the city of Tubas against Israeli forces.  Two days ago such a bomb exploded in a failed neutralization attempt (a work accident) inside the police station in Nablus.
⭕ ROCKETS (5) from HEZBOLLAH at Kiryat Shmona, 4 got through - HIT on a residential home, large fire.  2 soldiers injured in rocket impacts.  Also rocket hits in Shalom.
⭕ 15 rounds of ROCKETS and SUICIDE DRONES from HEZBOLLAH at northern towns over Shabbat.

🇮🇱⚔️🇵🇸 🚨
💥ISRAELI OCCUPATION AIRSTRIKES ACCELERATE ACROSS THE GAZA STRIP ON SUNDAY MORNING💥
The Israeli air and artillery bombardment of the Gaza Strip accelerated markedly on the morning of Sunday, Jan. 21st, 2024, with more than a dozen massacres committed against the local Palestinian population.
Multiple explosions were recorded in the south of Jabalia, located in the northern Gaza Strip, while simultaneously, Israeli aircraft targeted several neighborhoods in Jabalia al-Balad, where intense clashes still occur between Resistance forces and the invading Israeli occupation army.

Several others were also killed as a result of an occupation bombing raid on an apartment complex in the al-Amal neighborhood of Gaza City.
Meanwhile, Israeli jets and artillery targeted the al-Hakar neighborhood of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, killing two civilians.
Medical sources in the north of the enclave say the Israeli occupation army blocked ambulance crews from reaching the sites of the bombardments in Gaza City, telling reporters that Israeli soldiers are targeting anyone who approaches near the effected areas of Gaza City, specifically in reference to the neighborhoods of Sheikh Radwan and al-Nasr where heavy bombing and shelling targeted local buildings.
Khan Yunis governate remains a central target in the occupation bombardment of the southern Gaza Strip, with continuous raids on Khan Yunis City, resulting in the deaths a several citizens.
At the same time, IOF soldiers fired smoke bombs and artillery shells targeting the al-Manara neighborhood in the southeast of Khan Yunis.
Occupation warplanes additionally targeted a residential home located behind the al-Albani mosque in the Austrian neighborhood of western Khan Yunis.
In Israel's continued crimes against humanity, and in addition to countless other war crimes, the Israeli Occupation Forces bombed journalist Karam Ahmed Abu Ajiram as he slept in his home in Abasan al-Kabira, to the east of Khan Yunis, killing the reporter.
Thousands of Palestinian civilians remain buried under the rubble of Gaza, with ambulance and civil defense crews unable to retrieve their bodies, while over 25'105 have been recorded killed since October 7th and over 62'681 have been wounded in Israel's war of genocide.

Al-Quds Hospital in Gaza City has shut down “most operations” after running out of fuel and withstanding daily Israeli bombardments around the medical complex since Sunday. The hospital, located in the Tel al-Hawa neighbourhood and run by the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), said it was forced to stop most services “to ration fuel use and ensure a minimum level of services in the coming days”. It has turned off its main generator and is now operating only a smaller generator to provide essential services and two hours of electricity a day to patients and 14,000 internally displaced people who are sheltering there. Its surgical ward and oxygen generation plant have been closed. PRCS spokeswoman Nebal Farsakh told Al Jazeera: “We’re talking about shelling about 15 metres [16 yards] from the hospital building. Most of the buildings around [the] hospital have been almost completely destroyed. The bombings are getting closer and closer to the hospital, and we fear a direct hit to the hospital.” Most of the roads that lead to Al-Quds Hospital have been closed, forcing medics in ambulances to take a single, rugged, unpaved route to reach the injured. “We have about 500 patients inside the hospital. We have 15 patients in the ICU. They are wounded and on respirators. We have newborns in incubators. We have 14,000 displaced people, the majority of whom are women and children,” Farsakh said. The PRCS “has run out of options”, it said, adding that it has been repeatedly warning for two weeks that “fuel supplies would run out if Israeli occupation forces continue to refuse to allow fuel to enter the Gaza Strip”. [...] Bashar Murad, emergency medical services director at the PRCS, who works at Al-Quds Hospital, described the situation at the facility “as the most catastrophic” in the organisation’s history. “On Sunday, Israeli air strikes bombed the entrance of our hospital, resulting in the killing of four people at the entrance and the injury of 35 people, 12 of whom were inside the hospital,” Murad said. He added that half of its ambulances are out of service while its central storage area has been hit and partially destroyed. “We lost all medications and equipment in the storage worth around $5m,” said Murad, whose family has fled to Khan Younis. “I stayed in Gaza [City] as I cannot leave work in these circumstances.” [...] Earlier on Wednesday, a mosque was hit near the Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, where many displaced Palestinians had moved after heeding Israel’s calls to evacuate the north. “Just 100 metres [110 yards] away from the [Nasser] Hospital, a mosque – the largest mosque in the area – was completely destroyed in an air strike,” Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reported from Khan Younis. “What’s troubling about this air strike is it’s in the middle of a busy road – a main road leading to the side gate of the hospital and also a busy market with so many people out there shopping for daily essentials,” he explained. “There’s also a bakery next to the mosque where hundreds of people at least were waiting for bread,” he said. The number of casualties wasn’t immediately known.
