'It’s Bisan From Gaza, I’m Still Alive After Six Months Of Bombing'

It’s been six months since Israel began its relentless bombing campaign on the Gaza Strip. In that time, journalist Bisan Owda has been forced to leave her home in Gaza City and been displaced numerous times.

She has witnessed bomb blasts just meters from where she’s sheltering, listened to countless stories of death and destruction, and is now spending Ramadan without electricity or adequate food and water.

Her story is the same as millions of others in Gaza, who have endured a brutal six-month assault on their lives and homes. During this time, more than 33,000 people have been killed, including at least 13,000 children, and 70% of the strip’s infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed.

There’s a lot of info coming out on Gaza, so we created a WhatsApp channel where we hand-pick the stories we think you should be paying attention to.

This woman is a hero. How many of us, so far away, have been brought close to the horror. Stay safe, girl.

This young lady is a gift to us all. Her work will be valued for generations to come.
Please stay safe Bisan. 🙏🏾

Those people just Streishand effected this, because I had no idea she was nominated for a Emmy. Go Bisan!

Everytime I see Bisan popping up on my feed, I take a huge sigh of relief... she's gradually become the symbol of Palestinian perseverance for me, a mere onlooker with no relation whatsoever with the ongoing conflict. Bisan, may u and the fellow Palestinians live to see the day of peace and justice

[graceical]

Bisan's determination to show love and kindness regardless of the trauma she too is facing is profoundly moving. I only hope that one day I might have the honour of meeting her and giving her the hug she deserves and show her the love and kindness she holds in her heart.
