Gaza remains the greatest pain

With the return of the Lebanese displaced to their villages and towns that they were forcibly displaced due to the Israeli aggression on southern Lebanon, the stage of breathing the oxygen of return, despite the massive destruction, gives the Lebanese a glimmer of hope to move towards rapid reconstruction in an attempt to spread stability factors and restore calm and tranquility after continuous anxiety.

While the Palestinian resistance leaders congratulated their brothers in Lebanon for their steadfastness, solidarity and cooperation in order to repel the aggression and remove it from Lebanese land and sovereignty, the greatest pain remains the Gaza Strip, where the Israeli aggression continues with ferocity, including massacres and slaughters, in addition to the deadly war of starvation.

After more than 420 days of massacres, starvation, killing, severe siege and violent bombardment in the Gaza Strip, Gaza remains the greatest pain, as it contains all the stories of pain that pages cannot contain to tell and publish, and this pain will not end if the aggression ends, but will start again after the end of the aggression, due to the enormous size of buildings and facilities that the occupation destroyed.

The pain is inevitably renewed when the displaced people of the Strip return to what were called their completely destroyed homes, as they no longer exist. If they want to return to memories and nostalgia, the temporary tent will not help them, as it is a treatment for a period of time only, and will not contribute to solving all their problems in the face of the cold, rain, wind and humidity in the winter and the blazing heat of the sun in the summer. Therefore, the historical home of every Gazan citizen remains a story of hope and a remembrance of past days, but dreams collapse when the stones of the houses mix with the dust of the roads and merge with the remains of the martyrs.

Gaza's pain is in how to regain the taste of life, if that is possible after long years of reconstruction, rehabilitation and attempts to restore the construction of historical landmarks such as mosques, churches, schools, colleges, universities, centers, clubs, cultural and social headquarters and stadiums.

Gaza is looking forward to stopping the unjust aggression against it, and pins great hopes on the calls of the resistance leaders for the international community to move urgently to save our people there from the war of extermination and starvation, and the continued pressure of international and humanitarian organizations to bring aid into the Strip.

New initiatives are looming on the horizon led by Turkey, Qatar and Egypt, with the possibility of an Egyptian security delegation arriving in Tel Aviv in the coming days to meet with Israeli officials to discuss and move the exchange deal file forward, all amidst the ongoing daily massacres.

Gaza is a pain that has begun and will not end, even if an agreement or prisoner exchange is reached. The martyrs, women, children and men, are a pain. The destroyed facilities and homes are a pain. The roads and streets that are no longer fit for use are a pain. The tents and shelters are a pain. The hospitals and health centres that the occupation has put out of service are a pain. The sick, wounded, disabled and injured are a pain. The detainees are a pain. The missing and the bodies trapped under the rubble are a pain. The families erased from the civil records are a pain. The shortage of food, water, medicine and electricity are a pain. The displacement and expulsion are a pain.

It's a pain that has no end.. May God help Gaza.
