Saturday, September 7, 2024, marks 11 months since the war began in Gaza, following the Hamas terrorist attack. In addition to massacres, famine, epidemics and battles, the Palestinian territory has been reduced to almost nothing by Israeli bombs. Palestinian civilians live the horror on a daily basis. In total, at least 40,878 people have been killed in the enclave since the start of the war. Testimony of Asma, a Gazan, collected from Jerusalem.
With our correspondent in Jerusalem, Sami Boukhelifa
The band of Gaza is besieged by the Israeli army: entry or exit from the enclave is prohibited. The population is trapped, crushed by the Israeli war machine whose stated objective is to ” Destroy Hamas ” at any cost.
« This makes (presque) a year that, every day, we die and suffer “, says Asma. And it’s been almost a year since Asma, formerly a French teacher, regularly tells RFI about his daily life. For almost a year, it has been the same fear, the same worries, the same anxieties, destruction, death. And nothing changes “, laments the young woman.
This week has been marked by a large-scale Israeli military operation. Three Palestinian cities – Jenin, Tubas and Tulkarem – have been devastated. Some forty people – including eight children – have been killed, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.
