In order to build a toilet (restroom),
the following are required:
- A basic toilet seat without a flush: 1500–2000 shekels
- Toilet seat cover: 100 shekels
- Bidet sprayer: 30 shekels
- Silicone: 150 shekels
Total: equivalent to about 1000 USD.

These are only the supplies for the toilet seat itself. I haven’t even asked yet about the prices of wood and tarpaulins. Imagine that this is just the cost of the seat alone for a toilet made of fabric and sheets.

Can you imagine?
A low-quality notebook with very few pages costs $3 here
Why have school supplies become this expensive?
Why is it so hard to even access basic educational tools?
Is the goal to raise a generation without education? A generation left behind?
As a mother… I refuse to accept that
I will never let my children become victims
My son Osama needs basic kindergarten supplies
If you’re able to help, your support would help me give him his basic right to education.

Good morning 🌿
Today I had a really delicious breakfast…
Since the famine, I still feel like tomatoes, cucumbers, and salads in general are something precious and amazing—better than anything in the world.
I still feel grateful for any meal that includes salad… I enjoy it like it’s a real blessing.
Today I made a salad, added tuna, drained both the salad and tuna well, then added a squeeze of lemon and some olive oil…
The result? It turned out incredible 🤍
Would you try it?

The seed of this cancer, unfortunately, stayed dormant within us while we weren’t even aware of it. Or maybe those in power knew that this cancer had to be removed, but sadly they were afraid to face it and confront the disease.

Every day we see numbers,
but behind each number is a human story.

A woman holds up a noose and a lethal injection, celebrating Israeli plans to introduce the death penalty for Palestinians.
Her husband holds a gun labelled 'occupation', a plane labelled 'expulsion', and a house labelled 'settlement'
This grinning, leering spectre is the deputy speaker of the Knesset, the Israeli Parliament.
Death penalty for Palestinians ONLY, has passed a vote in the Israeli Parliament

Of course.
We Gazans deeply value education. Despite the difficult conditions—even before the war—every year we produce doctors, engineers, and top achievers across various fields, both in the Arab world and internationally

Personally, I even take from the donations that are supposed to cover daily expenses like food and use part of them for education—because that is nourishment for the mind as well

Fatima Hassouna, a photojournalist from Gaza, was the subject of a documentary that was recently accepted into the Cannes Film Festival.
Within 24 hours of Israel learning about it, she and ten members of her family including her pregnant sister were killed in an Israeli strike.

The film is titled Put Your Soul On Your Hand and Walk.

The people who came out did so for the voice of humanity and a truth that never dies.

But… marches are not enough.

She was simply preparing for the joy of Eid, but because of the Israeli occupation’s attacks, those simple moments suddenly turned into pain—showing how quickly the lives of children in Gaza can change in seconds. 💔

The economy pays the price while politics plays with fire. Wars may not topple regimes, but they always topple the lives of ordinary people, raising prices and crushing hopes. Leadership may remain intact, yet the real collapse is felt in the pockets of citizens.

Some of them survive… and some of them don’t.

It has been 6 days with no donations, even though I urgently need help, and Eid is only 6 days away.
My children still need simple things for Eid, like clothes, so they can feel the joy of the holiday like other kids.
Eid is about children’s happiness first…
And Osama and Youssef deserve to feel that joy too.
Even $10 can make a real difference and bring a little Eid happiness to two children who are waiting for it.

Famine is no longer a distant threat.

Every new conflict in this world brings us one step closer to hunger,
and makes our lives more fragile than ever.

Once Israel and the U.S. launched their war on Iran, Israel closed the crossings into Gaza and cut off all aid. Palestinians in the Strip now fear a return to famine amid food shortages and soaring prices.

"Israel Reopens Kerem Shalom Crossing as of Today"

Unfortunately, anyone reading this headline might think the crisis is over.
But according to the Gaza Crossings and Borders Authority, only 16 trucks entered Gaza yesterday through Kerem Shalom — 2 commercial and 14 humanitarian aid trucks.
This is far from enough for over two million people.

Yet we are the first to pay the price — and often the heaviest one.
The world may speak about “deterrence” and “political messages.”

Every border closure means less food on the table.
Every political escalation means more anxiety inside our homes.

And once again, we are paying the price for things we have nothing to do with.
After the recent escalation between United States and Iran, tension in the region has risen sharply.
Border crossings have been closed, and the entry of goods has been delayed.

Prices have increased noticeably.
Basic necessities have become more expensive.
People are stocking up because they are afraid.
And fear itself has become a daily burden.

For us, it means fear of what might come next.
When global powers confront each other, small and fragile places like ours tremble first.

Basic goods become harder to afford.
People start storing what little they can.
Conversations shift from hope to worry.

Protecting lives is not a political stance, but a legal and moral obligation that must stand above all considerations.

A daily problem we live with, but one that remains invisible to many outside Gaza.
Banknotes have become torn and worn out, and many shopkeepers refuse to accept them, especially larger denominations.

This currency crisis directly affects people’s daily lives: difficulty buying necessities, disputes in markets, rising prices, and increased pressure on families who already have no stable income.

In practice, this line is not subject to the ceasefire, as military operations and civilian casualties continue within it, undermining any claim of genuine peace.

With President Donald Trump’s announcement of the start of the second phase of the ceasefire, civilians in Gaza were supposed to breathe a little safety. Yet international reports confirm that shelling occurred on the very first day of this phase. Once again, the gap remains wide between what is declared in conferences and what people live on the ground.

Osama and Yousif are smart.
Their eyes are full of curiosity, and their hearts still know how to dream.
They were deprived of their kindergarten, their classroom, their little backpacks, and the sweet “Good morning, teacher.”

But I am with them.
Strong through them and for them.
With a piece of paper, a simple game, a drawing on the ground…
I try to help them learn and laugh.

With your support, maybe one day they’ll say:
“Mama, we went to kindergarten today.” 🌱

RE: https://mastodon.social/@DrALJONES/115875855552809729

The world reads articles about a “humanitarian crisis in Gaza.”
I am living it.

The tent we live in does not protect us from the rain.
The cold reaches my children’s bones.
The road that aid trucks use is the same road where we sink into mud.

This is not breaking news for us.
This is our ordinary day.

We do not only need sympathy.
We need to live… as human beings

I think In today’s world, power and technology are accelerating faster than laws can keep up with them. What people everywhere need is a real sense that there are boundaries that protect human beings, the environment, and human dignity. When these boundaries disappear, individuals lose trust in the very idea of justice. Communities do not ask for perfection, but for clarity, responsibility, and respect.

Silence is not neutrality; it is a position. Hesitation is not wisdom; it is an indirect participation in shaping a world where laws become flexible in the face of power and rigid in the face of victims. What is happening today does not concern one place alone—it touches the very idea upon which the global order was built after great wars: that human life is not negotiable.

Once this principle is broken, breaking it becomes easier every time that follows.

Every time international law is tested by a real human tragedy, the difference is revealed between being a true moral principle and being a selective tool used according to interest. When the suffering of an entire people is left without accountability, the failure is not only legal, but civilizational. Justice that is applied to the weak and suspended before the powerful loses its meaning and turns from a human value into empty rhetoric.

What happened to us has left ten years of suffering ahead, even if reconstruction begins.
The siege is still in place. The crossings are closed, and not all goods are allowed in.

It is enough that we are still in tents.

safety, memories, my children’s laughter, and all the small details of our life

I created this page to carry my voice and my children’s voices to the world.

When I look at this picture,
a wave of feelings hits me all at once…
pain, longing, heartbreak
This was my home
It held warmth, safety, my children’s laughter,
Now I sit in a tent, trying to explain to my children why the house won’t come back today.
It’s not easy to share this pain,
but harder still to live it alone

I need your presence, your words, your support
Maybe a sincere word can ease the weight,
and maybe a helping hand can open a door to hope.🤍🍉

Have you ever tried Gaza-style vermicelli?

It’s very simple, but it gives warmth and the feeling of old family gatherings.
It made me feel like I was sitting in my warm home, not in a cold tent.
We gathered around it, cooked it over a wood fire, and for a moment felt the warmth amidst all the cold and wind around us.
Osama and Youssef were happy and helped me too ❤️
So yummy 😋😋

The cold here doesn’t just pass… it seeps into our bones while we try to cover our children with anything we find..

I don’t want to be strong… I just want a little warmth for my children.
If one heart could feel for us… maybe our next night wouldn’t be this cold.💔

Sometimes, just $10 can make a real difference.🤏🍉

For my two little boys, Osama and Yousef,
$10 today can help provide warmth—
a winter item, a blanket, or protection from this cold.

We lost our home and everything we depended on.
Life in Gaza has become a daily struggle for the basics.

If you’re able to help, even a small amount matters more than you think.
Every contribution helps keep my children warm.

Not his first birthday,

His first two birthdays were spent displaced,
without a home or a celebration.
He learned to crawl, walk, and speak
while war surrounded him In tents!

He grew up too fast,
in conditions no child should face.

Tomorrow, I only wish him a normal life,

Youssef deserves peace 🤍

I’m Osama, 5 years old — and this is Yousef, he’s 3.
We smile in the picture,
but the sound of bombs is still inside us,
and fear is still in our eyes.

We try to play,
but everything around us is broken.
We’re just kids…
we should grow up safe, not in war.

I just want to play again,
go to kindergarten,
and hear laughter instead of bombs.

Will you stand with us?
We still believe in peace
