I taught him at his kindergarten ; he was adorable and kind, and he was loved by everyone.💔

عشنا مثل هذه الليلة بل وأحلك في تل الهوا غرب القطاع حيث بيتنا الذي قصفه الاحتلال، ونجونا من مثلها بأعجوبةٍ في مخيم المغازي وسط القطاع حيث نزحنا المرة الأولى، والآن في رفح جنوبي القطاع، تهتزّ الأرض من شدة القصف، ولمْ يبقَ هناك أيّ مفر!
لنا شرف الرباط، وعلى المتخاذلين لعنة الله.

My home, which was bombed by Israel is visible from the window of Maha’s room, as we were neighbors in Tal Hawa neighborhood💔
I was forcibly uprooted from my home too, and in 1948 the Israeli occupation uprooted my grandparents from their homes in the villages of Aqir and Ashdod
I’m not displaced from my home I’m uprooted. I haven’t evacuated Gaza City I was forced to leave it.
Since 1948, the Israeli occupation has systematically sought to make life in Palestine unlivable for the Palestinians.
