Finding documentation under the rubble of his home in Beit Hanoun

Original Social Media Post

"Since I was a child, I always loved keeping newspapers, even old ones. At the age of six, I started collecting important news and compiling it into a book. I continued this habit until I had five books. Then social media emerged, and the era of printed newspapers faded. I kept searching for them, but I couldn’t find them. Today, as I was searching through the rubble of my home, I found those books — it felt as if I had reclaimed my soul. These books represent my childhood journey of reading, researching, loving heritage, and documenting history. Omar Hamad | Beit Hanoun | March 17, 2025" - Source
