Urgent appeal: Help my family survive Genocide war in Gaza
Khaldoun... A Dream Under the Rubble"
🕊️ Who am I?
My name is Khaldoun Moataz, 18 years old - a high school student with excellent academic performance and a football player for the Al-Ahly Palestinian Club from the Gaza Strip.
Before the war, I lived a beautiful life with my family of 11 members:
👦 Seven boys: Nader, Maher, Firas, Amjad, Raafat, me, Khaldoun, my younger brother Juma,
👶 and two girls: Lina and Lara.
My family and I always lived together like friends, lovingly. They supported my football career, but I was also interested in education for their sake because they saw me as a doctor, and I loved being that.
I had a future. I had dreams.
Then the war came - and took everything away.
💣 What Happened to Us
On the morning of October 7, we received an evacuation order.
We fled from shelter to shelter: from Jabalia to Deir al-Balah, Rafah, Khan Yunis, Beit Lahia, and Sheikh Radwan.
Today, we live in a tent, exposed to the elements, rodents, and danger.
🏚️ Our home, our memories and my brother Nader's mobile phone shop were destroyed.
📉 We lost every source of income and all our possessions.
😢 I lost my education, my childhood, my studies, and my football talent.
🪖 We live under the burden of daily bombing, displacement, and hunger.
🧺 We rely entirely on aid, but it's not enough to survive.
👨👩👦👦 About My Family
, My father's health has deteriorated, and my mother is unable to supporting us. Whenever my brothers decide to get married, we lose one of our relatives, and our joy is gone. My brothers' good spirits have faded, and they are constantly depressed. They fear the future and always try to protect us, but we are beginning to see a dark life from which there is no escape.
My brother Maher, when he decided to marry his fiancée, my cousin was martyred. He doesn't see this as appropriate, even though he knows that life will remain like this for a long time, given what we are going through. 💔 I myself am getting weaker by the day - I have lost weight, energy, and the ability to walk long distances.
💵 Our Dire Situation
🏚️ We live in a tent with no protection from the sun, cold, or insects.
🍽️ Food is scarce - we stand in line for hours, often leaving without anything.
🥖 We haven't eaten bread for over two months.
🚰 Even water is scarce - and children wait in long lines just to drink.
👶 Our youngest child is getting sicker by the day.
💔 One night, after continuous shelling, my little brother Juma turned to me and said from his sleep, "Firas, don't go to American aid or you'll die." I trembled greatly at his words, and I was always afraid of losing my brother.
