In the heart of Gaza, where the echoes of conflict have become a grim backdrop to daily life, English teacher Maram Al-Zaanin holds onto hope. 🌍💔 As the Palestine-Israel conflict stretches into 2024, she joins countless others in yearning for an end to the violence that has claimed over 45,000 Palestinian lives and left 106,000 injured.
'Every day, I teach my students to dream of a brighter future,' Maram shared. 'But how do we dream when the world feels like it’s crumbling?' Her words reflect the anguish of a region grappling with shortages of food, medicine, and safe shelter. 🏚️📚
With 2025 on the horizon, Maram’s '1,001 wishes' include simple joys: rebuilt schools, laughter instead of sirens, and a world where her students can grow up without fear. ✨🗝️ 'Peace isn’t just a word here—it’s a lifeline,' she said.
As global attention shifts, Gaza’s humanitarian crisis risks fading from headlines. But for millions, the fight for survival—and hope—remains urgent. 🤝🕊️
