On the run and return uncertain
"On 13 October 2023, our house was full of people who had been forced to leave their homes to save themselves.
We were again informed that we would have to leave our house, but this time to flee to the south.
What made it more bleak and distressing is that my father lacked contacts to call people who might have welcomed us into their homes in the south, as he is Syrian.
“I don’t know where to evacuate as I have no relatives in the south,” I recall my father telling us.
We left our home and headed to the southern area of Khan Younis. It was the most terrifying feeling I have ever experienced, leaving the familiar comforts of our home and moving toward the unknown."
