In the Gaza Strip, the fear of total occupation by Israel
“But when will this nightmare end?” »» : The prospect of an extension of the Israeli army operations in the Gaza Strip arouses the despair of the Palestinians interviewed by the France-Presse agency, after twenty-two months of siege and massacres of the population.
“We already live every day with anxiety and fear of the unknown. Discussions on the expansion of land operations by Israel sign more destruction and death ”is alarmed Ahmad Salem, 45, resident of a refugee camp in the north of Gaza, and today moved in the west of the territory.
“We read and hear everything in the news (…), And none of this is in our favor ”worries Sanaa Abdullah, 40, resident of Gaza. “Israel does not want to stop. The bombings continue, the number of martyrs and wounded soar, famine and malnutrition get worse, and people die of hunger. What could we happen to worse? »»she castigates.
“Now they talk about plans to extend their operations as if we were not even human, just animals or figures”S’offusque Sanaa. “A new terrestrial invasion means new trips, new fears, and we will not even find a place to hide. The situation is already unbearable, no water, not enough food. What will happen if they start another land operation? God alone is with us … “
“We have lived a lot of wars before, but none like this. This war is long and exhausting. From one trip to another, we are exhausted ”underlines Amal Hamada, 20, from the north of Gaza, now moved to Deir al-Balah, in the center of the enclave.
“At my age, I should be at university, continue my studies, not live in a tent, lose everything I like, undergo famine and forced trips. We cannot even move. If a new terrestrial operation begins, it will be an even greater humanitarian disaster. We no longer have the strength to run, flee, or even shout. The world must act before we are erased. When will this nightmare end? »»
