In the Gaza Strip, Palestinians have endured 10 months of genocide, facing unimaginable hardships due to Israeli aggression and internal leadership failures. While Hamas launched attacks without considering the consequences, the people of Gaza suffer in silence, displaced and desperate for an end to the war.
Amidst criticism and unrest, Gazans like Ahmed Hadi lament the destructive decisions that led to further suffering, questioning the motives and strategies of Palestinian factions. As civilians bear the brunt of the conflict, the lack of food, water, and basic necessities highlight the leadership’s neglect.

‘Can no one stop this madness?’
Palestinians like Adel Sultan express despair over the ongoing violence, urging leaders to prioritize peace and humanitarian aid for the devastated population. As Gaza reels from relentless attacks, internal discord and international neglect only compound the suffering.

The plight of Gazans reflects a broader disillusionment with leadership, as internal divisions and external pressures exacerbate an already dire situation. In the quest for peace and stability, the voices of the suffering must be heard, urging for unity and action to end the cycle of violence.
