After Israel’s massacre in Nuseirat … when will the world see us?

Maram Humaid writes of a harrowing day and night as Gaza hovered between life and death while Israel freed four people.
Deir el-Balah, Gaza – Yesterday was anything but ordinary.
It felt like descending into the depths of hell, the war returned to its brutality and intensity as the world erupted into chaos, engulfed in flames, shelling and bombing.
The night before, relentless artillery fire continued across central Gaza, from east Bureij and Deir el-Balah to Maghazi.
Around 11am, I was eating breakfast with my children before heading to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital to work on my stories when everything suddenly turned upside down.
The artillery bombardment escalated, warplanes filled the skies, and the air strikes shook our home; they were shooting at homes in Deir el-Balah, around us.
