Hello, my name is Hala, and I am a mother of four children from Gaza. A few days before the war started, my husband traveled for medical treatment, but unfortunately, he hasn’t been able to return. Now, I am left to care for my children on my own, and I am struggling to provide for their basic needs, which has placed an immense burden and pressure on me.
We were directly bombed, and unfortunately, my home was completely burned down. We no longer have a place to shelter. I am constantly moving with my children from place to place, trying to protect them and keep them away from danger. There is no safe place here, as all of Gaza is under threat.
I am pleading for help to leave Gaza because I am suffering greatly. I want to take my children and go to Egypt, but that requires a large sum of money. The coordination for each person costs $5,000, and I cannot afford this amount after losing everything—our home and livelihood.
