A note from Gaza…
Here is a note I got today from one of our team members in Gaza:
I know well that you understand the sensitivity of the day to day situation in Gaza, we absolutely experiences the conflict between the moderate people who live unacceptable and unbelievable life and the extremists who enjoy the role they play in governing the others, I’m not the only one who analyze current Gaza as it is now, in short we live in a miserable condition, there is nothing reach the minimum standards starting from the rule of law and not ending by the milk and the medicines for the children.
For one second don’t ever think that we gave up or we hesitate in acting for the goodness of our people and for OV message, we are doing our best to remain in contact with the necessarily people in Gaza and we enlarging our circle day by day, our action may not covered by media or documented by photos but personally and on behalf of [my team] I confirm that we are happy by every step that we take forward toward our goal.
