Imagine waking up to the deafening roar of explosions, your tent shaking violently as the earth trembles beneath you. In an instant, everything is chaos—your children scream in terror, clutching onto you as you scramble to escape. The sky is filled with smoke and falling debris, the air thick with dust and panic. There is no time to think, no time to gather what little you have left. You run—barefoot, desperate, carrying your baby in your arms—praying that you will make it out alive.

Images: Hossam sent us images of what his family's tent looks like today after violent airstrikes in Gaza last night (03/17/2025).

Video: to further prove the validity of Hossam's story, we have included an Al Jazeera news report that Hossam sent to us, in which he briefly appears (at the 0:48 mark)

Story written by @rumiandroses

For Hossam Al-Qazzaz and his family, this nightmare became reality LAST NIGHT (03/17/2025) when an airstrike obliterated their tent—their last refuge after losing their home, a casualty of the war in Gaza. With no shelter, no safety, and nowhere left to run, they are once again plunged into unimaginable uncertainty as the ceasefire in Gaza collapses and war reignites around them.

Hossam, a dedicated father of four, has already lost his home, his job, and his peace of mind due to the relentless bombardments in Gaza in the 15 months preceding the now,-collapsed ceasefire. Now, with nothing but debris around them, he, his wife Hanan, and their four children—Bashar (9), Hani (8), Diana (4), and 5-month-old Habiba—are now struggling to survive with no roof over their heads.

The suffering extends beyond Hossam, his wife, and his children. Hossam is also the sole caretaker of his elderly parents, aged 75 and 72, both in fragile health. His father is suffering from severe burns and urgently needs medical care, while his mother battles high blood pressure and requires constant attention. But with no home, no stable source of income, and skyrocketing prices for essentials like rice and cooking gas—driven by the border closures and the ban on goods entering Gaza—Hossam is trapped in an incredibly difficult and stressful situation.

Despite these unbearable challenges, Hossam is not asking for much—only the money needed to survive, and to be able to evacuate to safety when the border crossing opens again.

"All we want is to live in dignity," Hossam pleads.

This is where you can make a difference. Every small donation—no matter how modest—can help provide food, clothing, and medical care for Hossam, Hanan, their children, and elderly parents. It can help ensure that Habiba gets the milk and diapers she desperately needs and that his family is not left out in the open with nowhere to turn.

Please, if you can, donate or share Hossam’s story today. Your support can be the difference between survival and despair.

Please consider donating to the Al-Qazzaz family’s original fundraiser to help them buy food and essentials and rebuild their tent:

Time is running out

My campaign suffers from a severe slowness in obtaining this donations in light of the conditions of the League we live in Gaza from the siege, the high prices and the cold 🍉

As you know, my family of 22 members and I need about $100-150 today to live a fair life and meet our needs and the needs of our children, but unfortunately we get only $10 or 15 today, and this is not enough to withdraw it in the first place in light of the high taxes and the interest that is taken on the withdrawal of money due to the lack of liquidity in Gaza due to the closure of the crossings, so I appeal to you guys to share my campaign and donate to it if you can. In January we need at least $ 2000 but we have only got $2000 so far, time is running and I don’t know how I will feed our children and family next month if we are not provided with $ 2000 !!!!

Here is my campaign link through which you can donate and you can do that via PayPal also I will leave you the two links

I am abedllah from Gaza, we created a campaign for more over 4 months. Untill these days, we only reached to 38% of our goal.

I wonder if i am an European or Ukrainian man created this campaign, does he have one year to achieve his goal !!

What is the benefits of my campaign if it wasn't as an urgent appeal !!

My wife and my 3 kids in northern gaza, they need a dire need of donations.

Why not someone adopt my campaign and share it continuously ?

Why not they are focusing on some intended campaigns??

Please share our voice and make it heard by yours who are able to share and give the help

Please stand with us 🙏🙏

how tf are you homophobic/a terf if youre working with deities bro the gods are queer as fuck if i see anymore of that lgb/ fighting for biological womens rights bulshit people on my fuckin timeline imma pour some sriracha on a lemon and were gonna have a fuckin problem

Been getting into Egyptian history/mythology as of late, and I decided to draw one of my favorite deities, Sutekh. God of Chaos, storms and the desert

[ID: A three page digital comic featuring Jimmy, Curly, and Anya from Mouthwashing. Jimmy is colored in solid green, Curly is white, and Anya is blue.

Jimmy leans on a table, shaking and holding his stomach.

Jimmy: Oh my god. (doubles over, still gripping the table) OH MY GOD. Curly, sitting on the sofa: You okay? Jimmy, laying over the back of the sofa, bent at the waist: I am in so much pain. Curly: Maybe talk to Anya?

Jimmy sits across from Anya at her desk, looking desperate. She is smiling, unbothered.

Jimmy: I'm in so much pain and I don't know why. Help. I thought it was my appendix but I already got that taken out YEARS ago. (holds his stomach again, all caps) I can feel it in my fucking legs.... Anya: That sounds odd! I can give you painkillers, but if that doesn't work, there's not much else I can do. Jimmy: Okayyyy....

Jimmy takes the painkillers with a "thanks...." before starting to leave. Anya watches him walk out the door before lifting two fingers to her head and pointing her other hand at him, grinning with red eyes. "Period Cramp Beam" is written by her arm. Jimmy hunches over, hugging his stomach again with a groan. end ID]
