"Nooh Al-Shaghnoobi, A Civil Defense officer in Gaza City: Tonight, our hearts are filled with mixed emotions — an overwhelming joy we haven’t felt in two years, a fragile hope gently finding its way back into our souls with the news of a ceasefire, and a quiet fear that this hope could fade once again, as it has before. We, the Civil Defense team — those who lived under fire and pulled life from beneath the rubble — have endured, fought, and carried on through it all. And now, as we hear the word “ceasefire,” our hearts race, as if we can’t quite believe the war might finally end. We pray that this time will be different — that Gaza will rise again, more beautiful than before: a city of life, not death; of safety, not ruin. May we live in lasting peace, carrying tools of rebuilding instead of rescue — and may our hands extinguish the fires of destruction, not the light within our souls." - Source
