๐ซ๐ต๐ธ๐งIts bitterly cold and the rain has returned with an intensity set to cause so much suffering here in ๐ฟ๐ต๐ธ#Gaza, my dear friends. I'm so relieved to tell you that my cousin Mo and I were able to help repair all the tents in our camp and help them set up new tarpaulin and sheets before the rain started again. I hope this will be enough to keep the rain from pouring into their tents, my friends, but it's hard to know because the weather is fierce in Gaza. When it rains it pours for days at a time, and the storms are fierce. It's bitterly cold especially at night - in fact it's so cold that the ends of my fingers tingle even when I'm sat in my own home, so I can't imagine how cold the people in tents must be. Children and babies are dying from the cold, my friends, it's a situation dire beyond belief. I'm waiting for the rain to stop so I can travel to the markets to buy mattresses and blankets. This is for our cruelty free camp and also for our poor cats who are helpless to the bitter cold in our shelter, my friends. We have a covering over the shelter to keep the wind out but the temperatures are dropping more every day, and they need more help to stay warm. I'll buy as much as I possibly can to help as many people and animals to stay warm. It would mean a lot for your help with this, my friends. Your generous support has already helped a great deal to prepare for this storm, and we can continue to help even more with your support. As I always am, I am grateful to you from the bottom of my heart for your support and love that you show for us even now when many people have forgotten about us.. ๐ซ๐

๐๐ซThanks to your kindness for us and all life in ๐ต๐ธ๐ฟ๐#Gaza, the cat shelter is now ready to receive and give a home to any cat who needs it. It's a positive time for my family and friends who have all helped with this great achievement, and I feel very proud to see the building restored. Before the war took it away, helping the cats was my passion and pride, and seeing so many of these innocent creatures killed or die in front of me completely devastated me, in a way I can't even describe. I will never forget the love and trust those sweet animals gave to us before they left, and I hope to help just as many cats and other animals going forward. I hope that you will help me, my friends. I ask not for me, but for these poor voiceless animals who have lived through hell, through no fault of their own. Unfortunately I'm not feeling well today, my friends, I think I am suffering with a virus, so I can't do as much as I'd like to. At any moment, a cat could find us, and we will help them immediately. Once I feel better, I will be able to go further into the city for them specifically. Please support us in the meantime, my friends. Our cruelty-free camp and our current cats still need you very much so that they can eat and so we can replace the badly damaged tents. Thank you for everything, my friends, again and again, you are our hero and our lifeline while we are stuck here with no hope.. ๐ซ๐

I'm sorry that I did not write to you before, my friends, I was not feeling well but I am better now. I wrote to you before about our cruelty free campโบ๏ธ๐, and their need for new tents to replace their old ones that no longer protect them from the harsh weather๐ฅบโ๏ธ. I must stress to you the urgency with this as they face colder and more severe winter storms as temperatures continue to drop further.๐ I know what its like to live in such horrible and hopeless conditions and it's so important to do everything possible to improve their situation. Similarly, it's very important to help the starving cats๐ and dogs๐ off the streets so they survive this terrible winter, and I hope you will assist me so that I can buy their food. A meal can be the difference between life and death for these beautiful creatures and it brings Maria and I happiness to bring them this simple act of kindness. ๐ปThank you for looking out for all of us here, I hope you can continue to help us. ๐

๐ซโฅ๏ธMy friends, thank you for your beautiful words and well wishes for me, I am feeling better today than I was yesterday although I still have pain in my teeth that remains. It was such a happy moment for me to have completed our shelter finally, with the tarpaulin up to protect from the cold and the roof and building secured to make it safe. We still need some finishing touches, things the cats will need like medicine and warm blankets and wood to build huts for them to sleep in. I would be so grateful for your help, my friends. I know I repeat myself a lot, but these poor innocent animals have no one there for them, and they've been through hell and deserve a nice life now. Many of the cats we hope to help from the streets have lived as beloved household pets for all their lives, and they won't do well in the cold by themselves. Some of these poor cats will have had their homes and their owners taken away by the war, leaving them with no home or love anymore, and it breaks my heart to see them all out there near my home. This is why I ask for your help to help them, my dear friends. Of course, I can't write to you without reminding you of all the poor families who are living miserable conditions in the cold, their lives made so difficult this winter. We are currently raising the funds to buy our cruelty free camp the replacement tents necessary so they are not exposed to the cold and rain. Their lives are dependent on us and on you, my dear friends. Please help them however you can, and please share my post with others so they might help too. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for being such wonderful friends to me and to all of us here in ๐๐ต๐ธ๐ฟ#Gaza.. ๐

Hello, my dear friends. Unfortunately, in Gaza, our outlook on life has changed; we no longer dream of luxury, but rather strive for the most basic rights. The harshness of life surrounds us, and essential necessities like water, electricity, and medicine have become scarce. We live each day as a new challenge. My friends, with you by our side, we still cling to hope. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, my friends. All my love and appreciation to you.

Dear Friends,
We are doing all we can for the people and animals in our area. The number of dogs is increasing here every day, and Hisham can't take care of them alone. I will be helping Hisham daily by feeding the dogs and giving them the necessary medicine and antibiotics.
Perhaps you have seen the rains and winds that have flooded and tormented us. With winter approaching, the cold will become dangerous. These dogs need food and blankets to keep them warm, as we lack the resources to build a shelter for them.
We will do everything we can to help these dogs who cling to us; we see it in their eyes. Caring for these innocent creatures is our duty. Compassion should be shown to all living beings, human or animal. ๐ ๐ฅบ โค๏ธ๐ฉน ๐ซ ๐พ ๐
I hope the mediators succeed in reaching an agreement to enter the second phase of the ceasefire agreement. ๐
We are praying that negotiations will allow food into Gaza and the flow of people out of the broken areas of the strip. The crossing will be opened in the second phase. I hope we can be evacuatedโme, my family, and my friends.
We don't trust the permanence of any agreement at all. It will be crucial to work on getting out of here so we can forget what we witnessed in this cruel war, a war that has given us terrifying nightmares that haunt us. ๐๐ข
I ask you to please keep speaking to other about us. The internet is unstable; there are daily outages lasting several hours at a time, Please keep sharing our links and posts.
I thank you all for having helped us survive so far. Please donate. Gaza is completely shattered and we have no other way to survive. You have kept so many people and animals alive here. We all thank you so much. You are true friends. Much love to each one of you. Thank you.

๐ซ๐My friends, you are so kind, your words and care for me yesterday truly touched my heart, and brought warmth to my soul when I feel like I am losing myself to grief and sadness.. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I hope that you will help me to build our shelter as soon as possible, so that we can protect the poor vulnerable animals from the difficult weather conditions and danger on the streets that leaves them at risk. I can barely recognise my surroundings when I walk around our neighbourhood, rubble and debris as far as you can see, and people struggling to rebuild their lives from what little they have. Unfortunately donations are still weak, I am left powerless to do anything, neither for my cat shelter or for the poor people in tents. Our current donations are barely supporting the families we send financial aid to, and I worry about them should we run out of funds. The families in the camp have barely recovered from the last storm that hit them, and I'm worried about the upcoming days of weather. We must be able to support them, my friends, I ask you to help them and us. You are the strength in my heart that reminds me that ๐ต๐ธ๐ฟ#Gaza is not alone against the miserable odds against us.. ๐ซ

Hello, my dear friends. Gaza, the land of resilience But we will not despair, for our steadfastness is our weapon, and we look forward to a better tomorrow, a tomorrow of peace and security in Gaza, that part of our homeland that bears endless pain and hope.

My dear friends, I thank you from the bottom of my heart because you are the ones who stood by us in the most difficult circumstances we have faced.

Thank you to all friends๐ซ๐, who made a great effort always to support me, and remind me we are not here alone in Gaza, forgotten and unsupported by the world. ๐ As a family we are excited and also nervous for the upcoming birth of what will be Maria's younger brother.๐ It has been difficult to navigate this crucial time for my wife when we have so little funds as a family, but this is the case for everyone in Gaza and we are doing our best to survive. ๐ฅบMy cousin Walid and I talked earlier today, and we both can provide water to our camp from our houses, so we decided we should instead only ask for donations towards our Cruelty-Free kitchen, so that we can get people life saving aid as soon as possible.๐๏ธ I hope you understand this, my friends. We support many families already and it would be a shame to have to let them down. Please always think of us, and keep us in your prayers. ๐We rely on you entirely, and many people are living horribly without any support or help in the world. That must feel terribly lonely, my friends. ๐ฟ

๐ซ๐My friends, you are so dear to me, some days I feel so alone and isolated from the world, but you are here to remind me that there is hope and good that exists. I feel like I am struggling with grief and sadness as I try to navigate our lives, but everything feels so difficult and hopeless that it is hard to be strong. I must be strong for my children, but I feel cracks in my heart that hurt me all the way through. I'm sad and hopeless at the poor animals who are living through misery and discomfort, and feeling unable to provide them a suitable home. I miss the older days when I could shelter over a hundred animals, and they were the lightness in my heart and my soul, my friends. I beg you all, from the bottom of my heart, to please think of them and their innocent faces and help me build them a big and beautiful shelter. ๐ซ๐พ
๐ฅบ๐Our cruelty free kitchen is struggling, we can only continue to send money to the families, and barely at that. They have medical needs and children to look after, and I worry about what will happen if we don't have the funds to send to them. I wanted to tell you that we have been able to start to distribute water from our houses to the camp and the neighbourhood for free, so we can now focus on raising funds for our kitchen, to give out more aid for the poor and struggling. I hope you will always support us and be there to help us, my friends. You are so dear to me and a great source of comfort to my heart.. ๐ซ

๐ฅบ๐Currently, the situation is tense and worsens at night. We are still living and enduring many hardships and difficulties,๐ ๐ซdespite all the difficult circumstances.

Your kindness keeps us alive. ๐ฐ๐๐กBlack market traders are doing their best to snatch everything from the desperate. We are doing our best to help these people. I hope that we will finally be able to meet all our basic needs: food, medicine, water, and everything essential for #humans๐ซ and #animals.๐พ
๐จ๐๐ซMy greatest request is for you to help us escape this misery and danger. We are trying to leave as soon as the border crossing opens. We must find a way to expedite our travel procedures. ๐๐๐๐ If you know of any organization that can help us get out, please contact me or the Gaza Animal Care Society (https://t.co/JijPFwbKpW).
I am grateful for your concern and generosity towards us, and for your great love for me, my family, and the people of my community. I appreciate it all, and I send you my deepest love from myself, my wife, and my young children. ๐๐ซ๐ฅน๐ Thank you, my dear friends. All my love to you. Thank you.

๐จโ๏ธ๐ฅบ๐I have been unable to post tweets for a while because the screen of my phone was damaged enough that it had become completely unusable. ๐ฅ I finally managed to have it repaired, at an exorbitant price, ten times what it was before October 7th. ๐๐คณI have been using the phones of others, but itโs good to have a way to directly connect with the world outside of this war.
๐ฐ๐๐ฅบWe are still living in a state of madness regarding many matters. We are still controlled by monopolistic merchants who coordinate with criminal gangs to ensure these goods only enter for them. They have the only available supplies of food and medicine and we are their captives.
๐ซ๐ขWe are still subject to great adversity. The weather has been brutal. There is flooding, brutal winds and painful cold. There is still hunger and danger all around. Our wish is to escape this tragic madness.
We are eagerly awaiting the opening of the crossing so we can leave and live in safety and peace without conflict.
๐๐ซโค๏ธโ๐ฉนMy Friends, your help to us over these past two years has made a huge difference. You have been our support and our family. ๐๐ซ๐พYou have kept so many people and animals in our area alive. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart and the deepest part of my soul, and
