Archivist Notes On This Video

Ali is saying he didn't get back to his home in Beit Lahia since October 7th and that he lost about 150 members of his family, mostly cousins.

People visiting him in the hospital make him feel like he's home. He doesn't know who some of them are but their visit makes him feel like they're brothers.

He wishes to take pictures in a liberated Gaza with all those who supported them.

Other quotes in the footage:

"We used to love the rain but with this war, and God is sufficient for us and The Best Disposer of affairs, we grew to hate it."

"We will be victorious God willing. All of this (suffering) is His will.

  • You've suffered a lot during this year. Do you still love Gaza?
  • "None of us would like to die anywhere else except in Gaza...Had I found treatment in Gaza, I would've stayed there"

"Life in Gaza was such blessing, and all of sudden it turned into nothing but bombing and the smell of blood."
