“Our night started with the sound of bullets and shells”
Maha and her family just barely escaped death
It began with a sudden round of shooting and bombing by IOF air and ground troops. They shot machine guns into the camp where Maha and her family were staying, and began firing artillery shells and dropping bombs.
Maha and her family jumped out of their tent and ran. Five minutes later, the site of their tent was bombed. A nearby journalist captured the moment on video:
Thankfully they are alive. But everything they own was destroyed, including their new tent.
In my family, we sometimes say “when it rains, it pours”, and this is sadly true for Maha’s family.
They have faced crisis after crisis, every single day seeming to bring with it a new threat or catastrophe: Maha’s daughter Joan is ill with severe gastritis that has eaten holes in her stomach, and she requires intensive and expensive long-term treatment. Maha’s uncle is critically ill and underwent a surgery that was only partially successful. Now the family has lost everything. Again.
The family needs funds for the following:
Food and water
Treatment for Joan’s condition
Treatment for Maha’s uncle’s condition
A new tent
Clothing and shoes
Blankets
Medical evacuation when the border reopens
This is a staggering list of costs. For a family with no income, it is overwhelming. Maha is completely inconsolable. They are sheltering in the back room of a shop, having nothing but the pajamas they were wearing as they slept.

Please stop ⛔ Watch how we escaped death.
It's really a disaster, the place we lived in has turned into ashes (tent, blankets, bedding, clothes...) everything we own has turned into ashes.
We are now homeless in the street.
We escaped death but we will die of cold and hunger.
Please look at us with mercy and help us by providing a new tent, clothes, blankets and covers.😔💔🙏
