This book documents remarkable stories and powerful moments from the people of the Gaza Strip (GS) and its heroes. It captures their legendary resilience and epic heroism in the face of a brutal Israeli occupation, one unbound by ethics, law or humanitarian considerations.
This book is a journey through the lives of several souls of the Operation al-Aqsa Flood, with the author aiming to represent the diversity of the Palestinian society in GS; professors and academics, doctors and engineers, artists, poets and intellectuals, the sighted and the blind, the hearing and the deaf, men and women, teachers and students, the old and the young, warrior with weapons and fighters with words and brushes, imams and preachers, mothers with their children, fathers with their sons and daughters, entire families and their individual members, as well as independents and faction members…
These anecdotes were documented and recorded without any prior plan or decision from anyone. They represent only a small sample of many grand scenes that contained monumental moments, many of which were never recorded or preserved, and for which no witnesses remain to tell their stories.
Al-Zaytouna Centre, through this book crafted by Dr. Osama alashqar and supplemented with impactful short scenes and snapshots, aims to present a concise portrayal of the Palestinian human suffering in GS, alongside their spiritual resilience, determination and persistence amid the Israeli war following Operation al-Aqsa Flood. The narrative is designed to engage both the mind and the heart.
