With #Gaza deliberately being cut off, and sealed off, by #Israel, just about any form of #internet access, no matter how shaky and temporary, has become vital for

With most of the infrastructure in Gaza destroyed, mobile phone accounts in the shape of #eSIMs

are one of the last remaining means to communicate. They log into neighboring Egypt and Israeli mobile networks, wherever possible (mostly in the South of Gaza).

#ConnectingHumanity is providing eSIMs to the groups mentioned above. They're reliable and legit [**]. Consider donating to them.

An eSIM is a virtual SIM that can be sent as a QR code, rather than a physical SIM that is next to impossible to get into Gaza, at the moment.

‘Celebrity’ ‘Authors’ - individual quotes

Maybe children’s books tend to be recommended by ‘adults’, promoted by people and newspapers with a financial interest and bought by their parents based on the author name? Just a thought and maybe something to discourage (not the book buying of course).
