I remember when we went back to our home last January after 13 months of displacement and we found it still standing. That day, we walked more than 8 kilometers carrying our heavy bags. It was the most tiring walk of my life but I was happy because we were going home. When we entered the house, it was already night and very dark. I felt alive again, and I slept that night feeling very happy. We spent months fixing the house but sadly it was totally destroyed 54 days ago. #gaza #palestine
The fear of what we lived in Gaza will stay with us forever. Every day I wake up and check on my family to make sure everyone is okay. Every small meal feels special because we lived a long time without enough food. When I hear any sudden sound, I get scared, even if it’s something simple. Every morning, I forget that our home is gone, and every day I am hurt again by this truth. We are still suffering, and the pain now is even greater than before. #gaza #palestine
