What is it about?

Two million people in the Gaza Strip, who miraculously survived Israel's genocidal war against the whole population, are starving to death. However, while Israel has killed and injured about a quarter of a million people in the Gaza Strip, the majority of whom are women, children, and the elderly, we in Gaza have ceased counting our dead and injured.

DOI: http://10.58489/2836-3558/041 This article, entitled “I am a woman from Gaza… a story of violence that does not end in 16 days” is a reflection of the world’s celebration of, and the international campaign known as, “16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence,” which is held every year from November 25 to December 10. Governments, groups, and individuals should band together to demand that violence against women and girls be prevented and eradicated. The International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women” marks the start of the campaign, which ends on Human Rights Day (A comment by Hilmi S. Salem, who translated the article, below, from Arabic into English).

Perspectives

This brief commentary, written by a woman (Nasreen Moussa) living in Gaza City, Gaza Strip, Palestine (Occupied), and translated into English by Hilmi S. Salem, tells, in concise, precise, and direct words, the story of a woman living there. The writer (Nasreen Moussa) appeals to the world (men and women) to recognize her suffering and agony, which mirrors the suffering of two million people living in the Gaza Strip, as a result of the genocidal war waged by Israel on the Strip for more than two years (2023-2025) and which continues to this day.
