Gaza is currently witnessing intense and violent airstrikes carried out by Israeli occupation aircraft.

All families remain at risk of losing whatever shelter they have left with every coming wave of rain and flooding. Their tents are at risk of being swept away, their children are threatened by drowning and freezing cold, and thousands of families may once again find themselves without shelter, without protection, and without anywhere to keep their children safe from death.

Israel has employed one of the most vile and brutal methods of torturing us and driving us towards death, without any mercy or regard for the lives of nearly two million people. Israel has pushed nearly two million Palestinians into the lowest-lying geographical areas of the Gaza Strip, which are the areas most vulnerable to the accumulation of rainwater and flooding, where floodwaters rise to depths exceeding one full metre. And this is where the catastrophe lies: these are the very same areas where hundreds of thousands of families who have lost their homes have been forced to live, with nowhere else to go. With every low-pressure weather system, these areas turn into death traps. Floodwaters sweep away families' tents, destroy whatever possessions they have left, and leave children, women, and elderly people directly exposed to freezing temperatures and rising waters. During previous floods, more than 70,000 tents were destroyed, leaving thousands of families without shelter, without blankets, without protection, and without any safe place where their children could seek refuge from drowning, rain, and cold. This is not merely a struggle against the winter season. It is a humanitarian catastrophe that worsens with every passing day, while Israel continues to use every possible means and circumstance to make life impossible for Palestinians in Gaza, driving them towards death in ways that go far beyond bombing and bullets. We are not facing bombardment alone; we are facing death beneath the rubble, death by drowning, and death from the cold. Even the place that is supposed to serve as our refuge has become yet another death trap, threatening our lives and the lives of our children.

A reminder: The very people who established the "Board of Peace" in Gaza and spoke about protecting it and stopping the ongoing bloodshed are the same people bombing Gaza and killing its children.

For the past two years, and up until this very moment, I have been living through a horrific psychological and physical struggle that tears me apart every single day without mercy. Two years of torment that has never stopped, and pain that has not given me a single chance to catch my breath or recover even a small part of myself. Ever since the moment I pulled my friend's body and remains from the rubble with my own hands, gathering what was left of him into a plastic bag until it weighed approximately 25 kilograms. Twenty-five kilograms was all that remained of his body after he was directly struck by an Israeli occupation airstrike, which tore his body apart and vaporized parts of it due to the intensity of the bombardment. Since that moment, my hands have never stopped shaking. His face, his remains, and the smell of his blood haunt me everywhere, every moment. I cannot escape that scene or erase those images from my memory. Even my sleep has not been spared from this torment. Every night, I endure horrifying nightmares that take me back to that very moment, as though I am being forced to witness the same atrocity all over again, time after time. I have tried every possible way and every method to overcome this pain and free myself from the torment eating away at me from within, but to no avail. The pain grows more unbearable with every passing day, and the suffering becomes heavier, as though what happened two years ago never ended, but is still unfolding before my eyes every single moment. My friend was one of the most academically gifted people I knew. He had enormous dreams and ambitions. He was someone who never understood the meaning of surrender, a person full of determination and hope, dreaming of a future he was working so hard to achieve. But the Israeli occupation aircraft had other plans. They killed him, and with him, they killed his dreams, his story, his ambitions, and every hope he had in this world. They did not simply end his life; they erased an entire future that was waiting for him and destroyed everything he had dreamed of achieving, in an utterly merciless and brutal crime. I am now living through the darkest days of my life. Horrifying and brutal days in which the images of death and destruction never leave me, and the psychological and physical pain never stops tearing me apart. I feel as though I am being punished every day for a scene I never chose to witness, a memory I never chose to carry, and a pain I no longer have the strength to endure. Two years have passed, but I have still not escaped that scene. I can still see my friend's remains before my eyes, and I can still hear the echoes of that moment in my head. My friend was killed once, but I relive the moment of his death every single day, and die psychologically a thousand times with him.

Gaza wakes up to one of the most horrific crimes Israel has committed since the beginning of the genocide. During the night, Israeli aircraft targeted the surgical department at Nasser Medical Complex, killing 6 people, including a doctor and a person with disabilities, and injuring more than 30 others, including several in critical condition. The consequences of this attack did not stop at the deaths and injuries. They extended to the already exhausted healthcare system, as the entire building was forced out of service after all the remaining surgical equipment was damaged and destroyed. The attack also left patients gripped by terror, fear, and anxiety. These patients are lying in hospital beds with bodies already weakened by illness and injuries, unable to endure any more pain and suffering. They could lose their lives at any moment if they are deprived of the medical care they desperately need. Israel continues to commit crimes that words cannot begin to describe or fully comprehend. It has placed all of Gaza under constant threat, leaving people with nowhere safe to seek refuge and patients with no hospital where they can feel secure. Israel has destroyed every sector in Gaza, from education and healthcare to the environment, infrastructure, and beyond, leaving behind a catastrophic reality that strips life of its most basic necessities and turns Gaza into a place unfit for human life.
