This morning, during our verification call with Diyaa (@DiaaMahmoud097), we heard some shocking news about his brother.
This is the reality of Palestinians facing genocide at the hands of Israel in Gaza.
Please help Diyaa, who needs an operation on his leg (and had to skip his appointment two days ago as he has to take care of his extended family of nine).

Thanks to 17 patrons from the fediverse who are paying her familyβs rent every month.
It was so wonderful to see her happy face this morning. βI even have my own roomβ¦ with a doorβ¦ that I can shut.β Broke my fucking heart.
I love you folks.

I wish I had that too.π
I wish there could be an apartment for my four children.
We sleep while water surrounds us from every side, inside and outside.
I wish this nightmare would end.
To wake up and find your pillow soaked with water, not knowing what to doβ¦
This is very exhausting.
Congratulations, Aseel. I wish you the best always

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •I want to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your support and concern ππ€ Your presence during this difficult time means so much to me and gives me hope to persevere despite everything.
I really need this surgery, and postponing it was very hard for me, but my responsibilities towards my family were greater. Your support, whether through prayers, sharing, or assistance, makes a real difference in my life.
Thank you for being by my sideβ¦ I will never forget this support π€²π

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •Thank God, I have successfully undergone the surgery. This was by the grace of God and then thanks to your support and standing by me π
I am currently in the hospital, and my condition is still unstable. I need some treatments during this period, and unfortunately, I am unable to do anything or support my family and my wife as I used to π
I kindly ask you to stand by my family temporarily until I recover and get back on my feet again. Your support at this stage means a lot to me, even if it is just by sharing my message π
I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done for me, and for standing by me since the interview until today. I will never forget your kindness π€
