🪁The children of Gaza have been instructed by the IDF to discontinue flying kites. From here on a kite will be assumed to be a weapon and will be targeted by the IDF. To the children of Gaza, a kite is more than a moments fun. It represents a symbol of hope where they can dream of a future where they fly high, free of the occupation that entraps and murders them. The children of Gaza have responded by asking the world to fly their kites for them. Make a kite in the Palestinian colours. Take it out and fly it high. Take a video and post it online. Use the tag #GlobalKiteCampaign Let’s flood the skies with kites and support the children of Gaza who have suffered more than anyone. Please share 🪁 Refaat Alareer Writer and Poet (September 23, 1979 – December 6, 2023) If I must die, you must live to tell my story, to sell my things to buy a piece of cloth and some strings, (make it white with a long tail) so that a child, somewhere in Gaza while looking heavenward in the eyes of his father who left in a blaze— who bid no one farewell not even to his own flesh, not even to himself— sees the kite, my kite you made, flying up above, and thinks for a moment an angel is there bringing back love. If I must die, let it bring hope, let it be a tale.
