♥️A Palestinian man returning to Gaza says the moment he saw his children alive was something he “never expected at all,” breaking down as he describes the reunion after months of separation. He had left Gaza before the genocide began, only for the crossings to close behind him, cutting him off from his family with no way back
“Every day, a person would die a million times,” he says, explaining that being away from his children felt worse than death itself; had he been with them, he says, he would have faced the same fate as they did, but distance meant reliving fear and helplessness daily. At one point, he believed he would never be allowed to return, after decisions were announced barring certain categories, those who had left before October 7, from re-entering.
Against those expectations, he was finally able to cross back into Gaza. “Being reunited with family, loved ones, and your children is worth the whole world,” he says, thanking God through tears.
