Despite the horror and brutality of life under the relentless torture of occupation, the world is astonished that Gazans still hold on to hope. We create hope for others when we insist on believing that Gaza can rise again from the rubble, even as we hear the sounds of bombardment destroying our homes, snatching the lives of our loved ones, and shattering our dreams.

As Israel’s genocide in Gaza intensified in late 2023, a small number of U.S. labor unions began calling for a ceasefire. Others soon joined in, and many also started calling for a halt of military support to Israel.

Ceasefire is a relief. After two years of surviving war, we can finally breathe — but that doesn’t mean our suffering is over. For many of us, it’s only just begun. The tents, and the people still living in them, stand as a heavy reminder that our struggles are far from over.

We’re staying here. Whatever happens, happens. Even if they crush us under their tanks.” In August 2025, TRNN asked Palestinians if they plan to evacuate or stay as Israel attempts to completely depopulate Gaza City. This is what they told us.

Israel has ordered the entire population of Gaza City—over one million people—to evacuate. The orders come ahead of a ground invasion that Israeli officials have described as a ‘mighty hurricane.’ For those in Gaza city, many of whom have already been displaced multiple times, this order presents a deadly choice: flee into the unknown yet again, or stay and face the advancing Israeli army.

We moved from one place to another: from Nuseirat to Deir al-Balah, then from Deir to Gaza City.
