Asmaa Al-Banna is a writer from Gaza who graduated in 2021 from the Islamic University of Gaza, Faculty of Education, majoring in basic education. On her experiences enduring Israel’s ongoing genocide in Gaza, she stated: “The situation is getting worse. We do not know what will happen in the coming days. It is like a never-ending, arduous, tragic journey. I was in Shujaiya, then I was displaced to Deir al-Balah. Then we returned to Shujaiya after the ceasefire agreement, then we were displaced from here to Al-Rimal. It is difficult to predict when salvation will come, but we know that death will be scary because we have witnessed the genocide. There are not enough hospitals for treatment. There are no medicines, no safe places. My sleeping hours have become less. The least that can be said is that I am afraid and there is no escape, and death is inevitable. I hope that God will have mercy on my family, the people, and everyone I love.”
