Everyone… I just need to rent a place to replace our tent. My family has fallen very sick because of it, Don’t forget us even with the ceasefire it’s an illusion to divert attention from us. Our suffering has worsened, the situation is extremely dire and I’ve lost everything except my trust in you.
My dearest friend set up the weekly and monthly donation options so that we can stay alive after a tent was destroyed just 100 meters away from us last night. The sand covered our faces while we were still alive.

I’m deeply depressed and can’t keep begging one by one for help anymore.
