Life after genocide: A Gazan’s message to the world about the ceasefire

from The Real News Podcast · host The Real News Network

In September, before the current ceasefire deal was announced, we spoke with two Palestinians in Gaza—Mohamed Abu Tawila (a former English teacher) and his nephew Abdul Rahman (a would-be college student)—about surviving 700 days of genocidal destruction at the hands of Israel’s military and with the full backing of the United States. In this critical follow-up episode, we speak once again with Mohamed Abu Tawila from Gaza to get an on-the-ground account of life for Palestinians after the shaky implementation of the ceasefire began on Oct. 10.Additional links/info:Mohamed’s Instagram accountLiving Water Mutual Aid in Gaza Chuffed fundraiser page and Instagram accountGoFundMe campaign to support Mohamed’s water delivery operation and his familyMaximillian Alvarez, Working People / The Real News Network, “‘Hearts are crying and bodies are bleeding’: Gazans describe their daily struggle to survive”Tareq S.
