Gazans' Fear of Dying: The Devastating Toll of the Israel-Hamas War

Gazans, including children like Rama Zaqout, live in constant fear and grief as they endure the devastating consequences of the ongoing conflict. With over 52,000 injured and an estimated 20,000 deaths, the people of Gaza face a daily struggle for survival. The lack of proper medical facilities and limited access to essential resources exacerbate their suffering. Tala Abu Nahel, who lives in Rafah, expresses the psychological torment of living under constant threat, while her severely disabled brother, Yazid, suffers without medication. The people of Gaza long for a life free from violence and the opportunity to enjoy simple pleasures, like running and drawing, that have been taken away from them.
