The situation is very difficult in Gaza, especially in northern Gaza. Death is everywhere. Bodies do not stop in the streets. Anyone who leaves their home is killed. Hours ago, a residential square in Beit Lahia was bombed. More than 100 dead. Jabalia has been under siege for 15 days. There is no there. Food, no water, and it is forbidden for anyone to go out to the street. People are waiting for their death there, and the massacres do not stop. People are there under the rubble. There is no one to save them and get them out. I swear to you, there are hundreds of dead in Jabalia since yesterday, and we have lost contact with my relatives there since yesterday.

    I am sorry Mahmoud, I am so sorry. I wish there was more I could do from my home, I wish I had more money to give, more to do than simple protests. I’ve thought of going to the middle east to help, but my body is damaged and I’ve never learned how to fight and I am no doctor or mechanic or anything like that. I am afraid I would be in the way.

    You and your people are the bravest in the world and you have been for decades and it is not fair.
    Thank you for telling about this. I weep for Gaza. I hope you hear from your family soon.

      If you come to the Middle East, you will not be able to go to Gaza because the Egyptian government has closed the crossing. The Egyptian government has also besieged us for 18 years. You know, my brother, if you were a resident of Gaza and entered the Egyptian border unintentionally, you would be killed immediately, and this happened with three people, one of whom was not He has a mind and this is clear to him. He was hitting himself and did not know where he was going. As soon as they entered the border, he was killed. He and two fishermen in the sea. The boat entered the Egyptian border due to the difficult weather and were killed immediately. These things happened before the current war.

      Thank you, my brother, for your support. Your help means a lot to me ❤❤

              Thank you, my friend. It is true that your house is small and you have a small kitchen, but your house is big because it contains a free and honorable man like you, and also my family does not think about traveling, just me, and it is impossible for me to do that. Because the Palestinian passport is very weak, and I think it is better to return to Gaza when the war ends.
