Today's the big day! Tawjihi (high school graduation) results will be announced this morning at 10am! Last night, everyone in #Gaza was stocking up with baklawa and other celebration delights. #TheGazaYouDontSee#Palestine instagram.com/p/CSFZEp_syM2/…
2/ The background song is Lebanese Druze singer Khaled Aljarrah's popular "Nkhawef al-Khawf", which translates as something like "We will instill fear in fear itself".
Here is an AI translation of the lyrics.
3/ At the beginning of the video we get a glimpse of the pedestrian bridge over Salah a-Din St. Qarara, South Gaza Strip, which was inaugurated with great fanfare, just 3 weeks before 7 Oct '23. The bridge was funded by Japan.
The bridge appears undamaged.

1/ Here is a thread🧵 showing the current contradictions of life in Gaza City.
We start with the story of the family of Snounu Restaurant. The family home was destroyed by IDF. The residents were given warning, and a day to evacuate. All the family is safe and unharmed. And as testiment to the resilience of Gazans, yesterday they were hosting a birthday party in the restaurant.

2/ Here is the deserted Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in the northern part of Gaza City, following the evacuation of most of the residents.

3/ And in sharp contrast, the hustle and bustle of Omar al-Mukhtar St., Rimal, the Saraya intersection and Kazem Building. The stalls, stores and cafés are all open and people can be seen shopping and queuing for takeaways at restaurants.
The narrator says, whoever wants to evacuate (South), let him go, but here everything is as usual.

1/ 2 August 2025, the children of the Gazan al-Sultan family, Wisam, Fathi, Mira and little Taymour put on their best clothes to go to school and get their report cards.
They go to a private school in Gaza City, but their mother says they've studied online for parts of the school year, because they were displaced.
On their way home, they see aid being airdropped from planes.
As you can see at the end of the video, there are names of IDF soldiers written in Hebrew on the wall of their living room, above where the soldiers must have slept.
I know what you are thinking, but no, this family is not a Hamas family. Read their story in the 1st comment + links.

2/ The story of al-Sultan family is well-known in Gaza. The father, Dr. Tamer al-Sultan, was a pharmacist, member of a Fatah committee, and social activist, belonging to the "Bidna Na'eesh" (We Want to Live) movement. As such he was arrested and tortured by Hamas more than once.
In April 2019, at the age of 38, he left his 3 children and pregnant wife for Istanbul, then on the smugglers' boats to Greece. He was making his way to Belgium, when he collapsed in Bosnia in August 2019. He died in hospital, the doctors suspecting he had leukemia.
A very sad story.
They are fortunate to have had a lot of support. Their extended family has rallied round to look after them, and they were honored by Fatah and the Palestinian Authority, who pronounced Dr. Tamer a Shaheed (martyr) and helped return his body home to Gaza for burial.
Based on the private school, I reckon they are also getting a salary from the PA.
They're a lovely, gentle family. I wish them a better future.
