00:00In Palestine, after the ceasefire, displaced civilians returned to their neighborhoods
00:05to find decimated houses and search for their missing relatives under the rubble.
00:10From the Gaza Strip, our collaborator, Judah Hegazi, brings us more information.
00:21I am in the area of Al-Bureij, this refugee camp located in the center of the Gaza Strip,
00:26which was one of the areas most attacked by the Israeli army during this genocidal war
00:31that lasted more than 15 consecutive months.
00:35As we can see, the destruction caused by the Israeli regime is extensive.
00:39Precisely here, I found the home of the Al-Rashash family, which as we can see has been completely
00:45destroyed.
00:46But what surprised me about this story is that despite being completely gone, since
00:51the home is in ruins, just a pile of destroyed stones, the family has come here again to
00:56live after the ceasefire.
00:58They returned to their home, to their house, although as we can see there is literally
01:02no house.
01:03They have put sheets to simulate a door so that they can live in this place, which is
01:08literally destroyed.
01:09What surprised me about this story is that the family, and especially the mother, came
01:14here because she said that in one of the attacks carried out by the occupying army, her children
01:49were right here in this place.
01:50And up to now she has not been able to get them out from under the rubble.
01:54That is, even now her children are under all this pile of ruins, under all this pile of
01:59rubble.
02:00And so this woman says that she does not want to leave her home, she does not want to live
02:05anywhere else but here, even though it is destroyed.
02:08Because above all, now her main objective is to get her children out and be able to
02:13bury them.
02:14Now we will talk with this woman, who is the mother of the family, so that she can tell
02:18us her story.
02:33I want you to tell me how you lived through the war, how many times you evacuated and
02:37why did you come back here.
02:39I have evacuated many times.
02:41Every time there were attacks we had to evacuate and flee.
02:44We have no house, no shelter, nothing.
02:47They even attacked us once for trying to eat.
02:49I came back here after the ceasefire to look for my children.
02:53Four of them died in an attack on my house.
02:55I came to see them and call for them and tell them to come out.
02:58Come out Atta, come out Mohamed, come out Nasir, come out Nahed.
03:02But none of them answered me.
03:04Here they are, under the rubble.
03:08How are you going to live here if your house is only ruins?
03:12How am I going to live?
03:13With God's help.
03:14I called the whole world to help us.
03:16What am I going to do?
03:17Nobody helps us.
03:18They just talk.
03:30This woman assured us that she has returned to her home because she literally has nowhere
03:34else to go.
03:35This is the only place where she can stay at this moment.
03:38The main reason that has pushed her to return to her home is because her children are still
03:43under the rubble.
03:44There are four young people who were killed by this friarly regime and whose bodies have
03:48not been able to be retrieved.
03:50So she is hurting since she hasn't been able to bury her children, who remain under the
03:55rubble after so long.
03:57So now her only wish is to get her children out so she can bury them with her own hands.
