The genocide of Palestinians has been ongoing since the 1948 Nakba began. Genocide is not only an event of mass death, but mass disabling.

The Israeli military fired a phosphorus bomb in 2008, and a woman in a house nearby was exposed to these gasses through her pregnancy. When her son was born, he had already been harmed and disabled by the occupation.

Ahmad Aldany is this son. He lives with a lifelong health condition that effects his bones and teeth. This disability requires specialized healthcare, which is hard to afford in the best of times.

Two years ago, his home was completely destroyed, and his family was displaced, like so many other Palestinians, moving from place to place in search of safety. He witnessed horrific scenes no child should ever see: destruction, and constant fear.

Ahmed is now suffering from a very difficult psychological condition. He wakes up at night to the sound of explosions and screams at the top of his voice because he is afraid. The healthcare infrastructure was decimated, leaving him unable to receive the treatment he needs for his disability. Now, the famine has become so severe that he goes long days without eating.

I was introduced to Ahmed @ahmedaldani333 through our mutual friend Fadel @fadel-dani. Fadel has been worried about Ahmed, as they are both disabled, traumatized, and in need of urgent medical care.

Two days ago, on Eid al-Adha, Ahmed woke up to the sound of bullets and shells falling. His family fled, abandoning their tent with all their food, blankets, and pillows. They are traumatized, exhausted, starving, and in need of safety and health care.

Ahmed created a fundraiser (vetted by gazavetters #198) to try to travel with his family to a safe country where he can rebuild his life, continue his education, and build a better future for himself.

Ahmed has raised €4,152 so far, but he needs much more to be able to secure safety for his family and get the treatment he needs.

He needs visibility on his campaign. Please donate what you can, share this message, and if you can, offer to write him a post now and then to share his story with others.

My name is Ahmad Aldany. I am reaching out to you from the heart of the daily suff… Ahmed Aldany needs your support for Help Ahmed and his f
