An *********’s Desperate Effort to Save Her Family in Gaza

Following an ******** airstrike on a camp for displaced Palestinians in Rafah, Gaza, Rolla Alaydi, a ************ *********, could not reach her family members in Rafah for days, leaving her unsure if they had survived the *******.

We’re going to start a long journey of trying to get them out of Gaza to the safety. I have a total of 21 family members, and they are scattered in different areas of Gaza. They took a decision not to be in one area in case something happened — not all of them will be ******* or bombed. Before the war started, all my family, they have their degree. They have all their own career. They lived a very decent life. I feel just hopeless doing nothing. Just waiting and time, just ******** me. I cannot even give them the medicine that I got for them. I don’t know what to do. Not strong at all. Not strong at all. When I saw the images of burning tents and the ******** of Rafah, I almost got heart ******* because I know for sure my brother, his six kids and his wife, they are in tent in Rafah. This could be my family. They could be burned. They could be *******. The internet signal is weak. It took a whole week from the incident of Rafah to know about my family that they survived. I don’t know what will happen to them next hour. Every hour is unpredictable. If I don’t hear from my family in three days, going to the fourth, I go insane. Voice message: “Your call cannot be completed as dialed. Please check the number and dial again.” My mind is just going all over the scenarios. Like they could be *******, they could be bombed, they could be burned, and no one recognized their faces. And that is the most — horrific, scary feeling. I have to be strong just for my family. All my family, 21 family members, depends on me. I’m their only source of hope.
