I’m Rami, a father from Gaza.
The bombs may be silent, but the suffering never stopped. My children wake up hungry in a city turned to dust, no homes, no schools, no water, no hope. Every day feels like a battle to survive. Please, stand with us before we disappear.

My sister just phoned me from work. She couldn’t wait to tell me she’d seen a man in a white T-shirt he’d put a Red Cross on in marker pen.
I think we’ve reached peak whatever this is.
