This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message :
“If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side.
By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people.
I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.”
— For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.

“Sea, tagann soiléireacht álainn le páiste beag a thabhairt ar an saol. Níl an t-am, fuinneamh ná an spéis agat fiú a bheith ag sodar i ndiaidh daoine níos mó”

My column on postpartum identity crises
“Níl leabhar nua Sally Rooney léite agam. Níl Small Things Like These feicthe agam. Níl albam nua Fontaines DC cloiste agam. Ní chaithim ach luiteoga.”
