Deir El-Bala, Gaza Strip Ma Inrabeh Darabeh has only one idea as she plans to leave her home near Deir City: to find the body of her son, Maram, and give him an Honorable Grave.
“I'm not going back to find my house, all I want is to find a grave and put his name on the stone,” he says. Inchaih, 55, will walk more than 10km (6 miles) through dry bottles and bombs to reach his home. He thinks it will take three hours.
The heads of Inryhih are very worried, pain and rest, he says, when he leaves the place that he has protected in the years of brutality of Israel, many people are dying because they thought to die under the rubble. Most of those killed have been women and children.
According to the terms of the Eya agreement between Israel and Hamas that began last Sunday, Day 7 Through the roof – Saturday this week – which inside the people inside will be allowed to return without looking at the Israeli soldiers to their homes in the north, which has been done in force on October 2024.
In November 2023, when Israeli ground troops entered the lines built after the first month of bombing, Gaza was divided into two. This part of the army – known as copies of Netzarim – from Gaza, from east to west, cutting Gaalia and Beit Lahiya and Beit Lahiya and Rafa in the South Gan Unis and Rafa in the South.
Cut completely
Since the land invasion, no one was able to cross to the north. According to Verwa, the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, 75,000 people and 75,000 people are believed to have remained in the North Gazano Governorate – less than 20 percent of the number of military operations there – before the attack.
People will be allowed to return on foot through al-Rashid Street, a waterway west of Gaza City that connects southern Gaza to the north. Traffic, however, has been a point of contention. According to a report by the United States Web site, Hamas refused to accept the establishment of the turnpike on Israpeni, the main road south of Gaza City.
Compromise, he says, made government contractors to work in Gaza as part of Conse Commanem Conser Along Salah Al-Din Street.
Following the 15 months of the most explosive eruption, 90 percent of the population is left with more than 80 percent of the houses destroyed, as survivors like the Inryhira are not ready to give up.
He remembers a happy Sunday in late October 2023, when he received a call at 4am, as if it were yesterday.
“My husband and I were forced to leave our home in the north for several weeks,” Antherah told Al Alzeena. “We took my eldest son, but my three children and their husbands stayed behind.”
On October 27, communication was completely cut for more than 36 hours.
“I didn't know that Maram might have been killed until the day after my eldest daughter was brought back.”
Mr. Maram was 35. His four-year-old daughter was killed by the same suicide bomber in Gaza City at the end of October who took Maram's life.
'All I want is to tear down my tent of rest at home'
Inryhira's story is similar to that of thousands of women who have experienced the unspeakable pain of losing children, husbands, fathers and brothers while doing the heavy lifting for survivors.
Ollot Abdrabbo, 25, used to have three children. Now they have only two: a daughter, Alma, 6, and an infant, 18 months old.
“Salah, my four-year-old, I died in my arms in Deir El-Bala where we left last year. Yollot's father had taken him to the fifth prayer when Israel opened fire on October 27, 2023. “His father lost his legs.
He took his son home from his hospital from Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Hospital, but he had internal loss and died the next day.
Ollot's husband was living behind her in Beit Lahiya, north of Yabalia in northern Gaza, so she began to discriminate against her businesses in order to put her husband closer to home. Now, now, he can go there, and he wants to go on Sunday.
“I haven't seen my son's grave,” he says. “My heart is divided in two: one half is my murdered son and the remains of my house, and the other half is my two children who have been taken away from their father for many months.
Apollot, “flies my tent over the ruins of my house and reunites with my family.”
'The Suffering of Tent Dwelling'
Although not everyone is grieving a dead child or being separated by a long distance from a man, women like Zulfa absunab feel anxious and worried.
A 28-year-old mother of two daughters, Salma, 5, and Sara, 10, was arrested at the end of October, in northwest Gaza, in Nuir El-Balat El-Balat, Bara in Central Gaza, where she lives in a friend's house with refugees. It has bedrooms with mattresses on the floor – one room for men and the other for women and children.
“My two daughters and I share a small room with two other women and their four children,” while my husbands are in another room. We have been getting closer and closer to each other for a year; We cannot sit together or eat together. “
Even after hearing from people in the north that his house was destroyed by an Israeli tank, he says he is counting the hours until his young family can return to their home and have a normal family again.
The lines on Hayam Khalaf give a confusion of several things he has endured.
Together with his four children – Ahmed, 12, 12 years, 8, Saad, 6, and monkeys, 5 – monkeys, 5 – Rafarat, and finally Now tehema in Dero El-Bah-Bah-since the war in October 2023.
His old face is a testament to the stress of living in a tent for more than a year, messing things up and struggling to feed his family.
“I can't explain the rescue of his parents in Tal Al-Hawa, south of Gaza City. He was able to go out a lot with his mother, a cancer patient, he was able to seek medical treatment in Egypt.
He said: “I will sleep in a cold stomach, and I must not and will not return anything that will remind me of this cursed tent,” he says.
'I will hide my child with my hands'
For Jamat Wadi – better known as UM Mohammed – a 62-year-old woman of the War Eight, the scars of the war do not go away when she walks.
Originally from the refugee camp in the north, Um Mohammed left Deir-El-Bah-Bah-Bah-Bah – with their husbands and seven wives. Her only child, Mohammememeememe, 25, decided to return to Yabalia to protect their home.
“He came to see us for a long time from November 24 to 30, 2023, but then he insisted on returning to the north despite warning his life,” Um Mohammege.
Now she believes that her son is dead and until now she has been waiting every day at Al-Aqsa Maryrs Hospital in the hope that her body will be returned there.
“A few days later, his prisoner, who had just returned, told me that some boys had been shot, and that his body had been left on the road.”
It's been a long time since then, says Um Mohammed – a year of trying to find what's left of her son. He is confident that he will be able to identify his body if he can find it.
“I'll find him,” he says. “Part of his leg was cut off where he was wounded at the beginning of the battle. I will return it the same way; I will find him and I will plant him with my own hands.
“For me, returning to northern Gaza only means finding Mohammed's body.”
