Hunger is getting worse. Illness is spreading faster. Survival is becoming harder every single day.

We are living in unbearable conditions, insects everywhere, rats around us, disease spreading, and almost no access to medicine or basic needs.

My father is still fighting his illness. He needs urgent treatment but even the simplest medication is out of reach.

We are doing everything we can but it’s no longer enough.

We urgently need your humanity and your support.

Donate and share.

I am Jaafar from Gaza. I am currently in northern Gaza, and we have not yet been displaced to the south. Things are very difficult here — the cost of moving to the south is $1,000, and a single tent also costs $1,000, if we can even find a place in southern Gaza. The south is overcrowded, and renting a plot of land costs $1,000 per month, or even more depending on the area. 🙂😢

I started a donation campaign in the middle of the war and received good support, but due to personal circumstances, I recently created a new link, and unfortunately, I have only received a small amount of donations so far. 😓💔 I appeal to you to help me with my new campaign and donate whatever you can 🥺😭. Every amount you give will save the lives of my family and me and may help us cover the cost of moving to southern Gaza! 😓 Thank you, and I pray that God blesses you and provides for you 🧡🫂

I contemplate the happy faces of people around me here in Ireland and reminisce about the happy normal life my family and I had before the war. A life that turned into a distant memory for us and was replaced by an unending series of horrible nightmares.

Unlike my family in Gaza, people here have access to drinking water, all types of food, electricity, and a roof over their heads. Above all, they are safe, and I cannot help but wonder if they genuinely do appreciate these blessings in their lives enough.

People seem relaxed and laughing wholeheartedly around me in Ireland. I wish I could laugh too, but I am crushed way beyond recovery on the inside. I was evacuated by my Irish college after five months of living the horrors of war in Gaza. I hope you will never know what it feels like to live in constant fear and worry and be horrified by the most sickening and scary nightmares every single night while you are far away from your family in such circumstances.

When did my people in Gaza cease to be human beings worthy and deserving of a normal life? Has it become normal now for my family in Gaza to be starved and killed while the whole world is watching the genocide? If that is the case, then you will have to excuse me if I seek every avenue to bring them to Ireland and start a new normal life like all people here around me.

I was assured by the Irish Reugee Council (IRC) and lawyers in Ireland that there is hope I can reunite with my family in Ireland. In difficult times, it is hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. For me and my family, you are literally our light and hope for a better life.

SOS!

This is a vicious circle of misery, pain and torture that no human being is capable of enduring. It is simply so crushing and painful beyond what words can possibly describe.

Everyone who knows us knows that we are a reserved, quiet and reclusive person. We have always been an independent person and used to do everything ourselves for our family. So, I hope you understand that today it's difficult for us to talk about our personal issues and finally ask for help. I will tell you my story briefly, after I realized some of my dreams a short time ago by marrying my life partner and moving into my house, which we only stayed in for a few days until we were in the middle of the war, we fled to save ourselves and stay alive, we lost hope in life after all our dreams that we had dreamed of since childhood were shattered.

One of our dreams was to settle in the house we built stone by stone and be happy like other couples, but we couldn't because of the war.

I used to work as a lawyer in several companies, I am unemployed, I lost my job, I have no source of income, and everything I saved I put in the house, the house was destroyed and I have nothing now.

This is a picture of me as a lawyer with the head of the Bar Association

My wife and I decided to start a fundraising campaign so that we can get some money to evacuate us after we lost everything, to rebuild our house that was destroyed by the occupation, and to get food, water and other necessities of life so that we can live first and then think about our future, which we don't know anything about.

Now, this is our house, which was destroyed by the occupation after my wife and I equipped it

The place where we live now is devoid of all the necessities of life, and we struggle with access to water, food, safety, and all the necessities needed to live.

I realize that we're all going through tough times, so anything that helps, whether it's your love and support, your donation, sharing my story, or sending love and prayers, it's all accepted and greatly appreciated, and I hope that anyone who is able to help me will help me and spread the link, because literally every dollar makes a difference.

"وَنَحْنُ نُحِبُّ الحَيَاةَ إذَا مَا اسْتَطَعْنَا إِلَيْهَا سَبِيلاً" (We love life if we can find a way to it.) — Mahmoud Darwish

Today was a day of two very different realities, but in both, we are trying to find our way.

Reality One: Finding Life ☀️

This morning, for just ten minutes, the war disappeared from my children's eyes. Rokaya and Majid found a chicken. 🐓

There was a moment that broke my heart and healed it at the same time. Majid, who is only 3 years old and understands hunger far too well, looked at the bird and asked if we could eat it.

Rokaya immediately fought with him! She shielded the bird with her little arms and yelled, "No! This is not for eating! This is our friend!"

Even here, surrounded by destruction, she chose love. She chose to make a friend .

I wanted to freeze that moment forever.

Reality Two: The Freezing Night ⛈️

But then the sun went down. The weather turned on us instantly. The gentle breeze became a freezing storm that cuts right through the fabric of our tent.

This is our reality tonight. We cannot sleep. The sound of the plastic flapping in the wind is deafening, and the deep cold seeps in from the ground up. There are no walls to protect us, only thin sheets that shake violently with every gust.

We need thick blankets. We need reinforcement to make this tent strong enough to survive the winter.

But I must end this post with gratitude. 🙏FOREVER GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF YOU!

We have raised €397! 🎉 To everyone who donated: Thank you. knowing we are not forgotten is the fuel that keeps us going. Because of you, we have hope that we can buy heavy tarps soon.

Donate Here if you can ❤️ ✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #720 )✅️

Please, help us keep finding a way to love life. If you can spare €5, it gets us closer to safety. If you can't donate, please REBLOG 🔄.

are you defending (in this instance) Irish Catholics as a proxy to give yourself grace, to lump yourself in with "the good ones?"

what you're actually doing is absolving yourself of action and self-reflection. that discomfort you feel about white people perpetrating racism is asking you to do something to bring your actions into alignment with your values. instead, you're discarding this feeling by doing some feel-good mental gymnastics to ensure that there is a narrative that gives you an escape hatch, an assurance that there are good white people in the world (ones with whom you identify).

instead, let your discomfort guide you to do something real because if you're not actively standing up against fascism and its children, you're laying down to get stepped on. here are some real things to do:

donate to support the people who have been attacked, displaced and traumatized in racist attacks in Belfast:

don't have money to spare? find local organizers, join them, triage immediate needs in your community, then play the long game to move the Overton Window towards inclusive values. i do not want to hear any wailing about how nothing you do matters, no one will do anything, etcetera, etcetera; these are more mental gymnastics that allow you to give yourself permission to to do nothing

don't have time, money, or energy to spare? go to your local library and pick up a book to educate yourself and build empathy:

no access to a library? do the internal work and pick apart your own internal biases about race (i'll give a starter question for reflection: why did you feel compelled to respond to a post about violence against Black people and immigrant communities by centering white people?)

How long do we have to cry out before someone finally hears us? How long will my leg keeps fading away while the world stays silent ,

It has been 5 days without a single donation !!! So many people share our posts, but when it comes to helping, nobody responds while my legs condition is getting worse because we cannot afford it's medicine and now I'm terrified of losing it because we have no money for her treatment. Imagine if it was your leg, watching me suffer every single day, watching it fight between life and death while you stand helpless, unable to ease my pain. What would you do?💔

For 3 days… not a single donation has come. I keep begging, posting, asking… and no one is responding.

My leg must go into surgery within the next 7 days. If we don’t raise the money in time

I’m vetted by association I’m ayoosh gaza brother

Hello friends, I thank you very much for your continuous support, but right now I am in urgent need of you and your help. We are now in the holy month of Ramadan, which requires a lot of expenses, and there has been a significant rise in prices.

I also need to pursue my dream after losing everything. I need your support greatly—I need more than $1,500 to pay my university fees so I can receive my certificate and apply for scholarships.

You can find the images below the post.

Therefore, I am in great need of your help. I support my family, and at the same time, I am trying to achieve myself and continue my education.

In my absence, Eman's village's situation has been getting worse, far far worse. As the fabric of Sudan's medical and other social infrastructures have been destroyed by war and genocide, displaced people are seeing a high risk of disease outbreaks amongst them. This is what Eman's village is currently going through, and her family has been one of many affected by dengue fever.

Eman is scared, alone, and feels like her family's situation is invisible. Please show her that she isn't alone, and that her and her family and her village aren't invisible. Please if you can spare anything, help Eman out.
