I'm so sorry for your and your family's loss, Alaa. The barbarity is appalling and there are many of us fighting your corner here. Sending love and solidarity.

Such a sad story, but necessary to show how bad the conditions are. Thank you for sharing it Alaa, I'll share it around with people I know

Dear Alaa, my deepest condolences to you, Ruba's husband and daughter Tuhfa, all of your family, and all Palestinians needlessly suffering from the world's inhumanity and lack of basic human decency. Love, light, peace and goodwill to you all.

What a gifted writer you are, Alaa. I could feel your pain and frustration through your words. I can’t imagine how it must be for you and all those Palestinians having to endure the suffering of this horrid disease, let alone the waiting, knowing the fate of survival depends solely on the whim of these monstrous Israeli bureaucrats. The level they’ve stooped, just to add more suffering to lives already too difficult to bear is unimaginable. Yet they continue to find ways to achieve their evils. I wish there was a way to end all this insanity, but please know how hard those of us watching from afar are working to bring and end to it all. Hopefully sometime soon. 💔🙏🏻
