Gaza: One Year of Genocide

   Source: Aj+ Oct 9, 2024 No Comments


It’s been one year since Israel began its war on Gaza, and since video journalist Bisan Owda picked up her camera to show the world what’s happening on the ground. 

In that time, she’s been forced from her home into continuous displacement, had bombs fall around her and documented the stories of Palestinians surrounded by their decimated homes. 

She’s spoken to strangers sharing what little they have, children trekking to get water for their families and people creating a way to survive out of nothing. She’s ensured the world sees how life has changed entirely for Palestinians, sharing stories of hunger, thirst, illness, injury, bombings, grief and death. 

Since October 2023, Israel’s assault has killed over 41,800 Palestinians, damaged or destroyed well over 70% of Gaza’s homes, throttled aid, and leveled infrastructure necessary for survival.
