My friend Amal (@amal-ashour-now2) messaged me this picture and story:
Today, bullets pierced our tent… the children were playing inside when it happened.
We are a displaced family, living in a fragile tent with barely enough to survive. This morning, gunfire struck our shelter.
By a miracle, no one was physically harmed, but the emotional trauma is unbearable.
My children picked up the bullets from the ground... and asked me, “Mom, are we going to die too?”
I took these photos just minutes later, not to shock you, but to show you the heartbreaking reality we’re living.
Amal is a pregnant mother, who’s currently displaced in Gaza. Previously, she used to run a campaign to support her family’s basic needs until GFM shut it down. For that, her and her sister launched a Chuffed campaign to ensure that donations reach both families safely and reliably. The funds from this campaign aim to:
- Help the families evacuate from Gaza
- Find a safe place to live
- Provide food and medical care for the kids
- Help them heal from this terrifying experience
Please support Amal’s family by donating and sharing. Help this fundraiser gain traction as it barely raised ~$100 so far.
Hello friends, I'm Sahar! Lia & I are friends of the Ashours & Shehabs, and we'll be helping them run this campaign. Both families have had
The bombing is intense, and towers and buildings are being completely destroyed. All we have left is your help and donations. We may have to flee again these days, as the occupation is bombing us violently. Help us and donate during this time. Help us and donate, please.
Guys, my sister Shehab @danashehab family and I are facing imminent and brutal danger from the Zionist occupation's warplanes. They are intensively bombing all the buildings, as everyone saw yesterday, including the Al-Sousi Tower and the Mashtaha Tower. Now they are threatening to demolish the tower next to our tent, and we don't have the money to move. Donate, participate, and help us, we desperately need you.🙏🏼
