Oh happy people, oh human beings, perhaps you are listening ears, I am speaking to you, Shahada Al-Habash from the Gaza Strip, specifically from Jabalia, one of the places where death, destruction, devastation, hunger and poverty abounded in the Gaza Strip. My family and I were displaced in search of safety, security and means of survival. We ran and slept in the street, and my wife was pregnant with her twins, one of whom she lost at the beginning of the war when we were being pulled out from under the rubble of our house that was destroyed by the war machine over our heads, and the other we gave birth to specifically in the fourth month of the war, whose life began in the new year, perhaps it was the year of life for us and for our beloved Strip. I named her Hayat to bring us back joy, life and hope, but God’s will be done. My wife, my three daughters, Hikaya, who is ten years old, Sham, who is eight years old, and Hayat, who was born in the war, who is ten months old, are now displaced in Khan Younis. We sleep on the ground and seek the sky as a blanket. We only have a worn-out tent that does not protect us from the heat of summer or the cold of winter. As you may know, we do not get the most basic necessities of life easily. Sometimes, getting a piece of bread or a blanket for you and your family may cost you your life. I hope that you will help me and my family survive and provide some of my family's needs so that I can start a new life with my family.
