Stand with Lama for a Better Future

help us to gain our rights to live.
My name is Lama, im 18 years old student from gaza city.
The wars do not stop here in Gaza, the conflict has been ongoing since our birth, but this war is the most horrific ever. We were forcibly displaced from our home and our suffering has increased in obtaining the simplest basics of life; we were unable to provide drinkable water or flour for many days. Clothing stores have become completely empty, and we couldn't provide clothes to keep us warm in winter. What's even worse, the war has stolen our dreams, destroyed hospitals so we no longer have the right to treatment, destroyed schools and universities so we no longer have the right to education, and destroyed the infrastructure so we no longer have the right to live in a clean environment away from diseases. We live our entire lives between prison and death. My siblings and I were always top students, and the war stopped our educational journey. I was about to finish high school and join the major of my dreams, but my city has become a ghost town. There are no landmarks, no homes, no streets, no institutions, no schools or universities, no markets, no hospitals; life is impossible here. Even if the aggression stops, it will take many years to rebuild, but I dream of a better future for me and my family. I long to see my family's faces without gloom, oppression, and tears. Each of us has a story that began beautifully and was filled with disappointment, sadness, and pain, and its end is in your hands, perhaps you can repaint it with flowers.
