Nour el-Din Haggag, 27, murdered by Israel in #Gaza today. This is his last message to the world:
Good evening, World,
Last night all communications and the internet were cut. What I thought impossible has come to pass.
The postman won’t be able to come in all this bombing and destruction, and his newspapers won’t carry except the same news every day: that Gaza is being annihilated. And perhaps news of my death will be in the next edition.

Alaa's letter written to his mother today:
"You know the story, but it’s important that I tell it again. This journey, I’ve walked it while mostly looking behind me, because I could see nothing in front of me except extinction .. the abyss. #FreeAlaa
Gradually, with each step, each delay, something reached me .. from a visit, from a letter, from a book, an image, from the book, from news of the campaign and news of Khaled. Things changed and I started looking towards the future, a future for us as a family. #FreeAlaa

This is a long thread relaying what Laila pieced together from what @Alaa said when she visited him in Tora Prison today:
Sun Sept 12, (the day before the last court hearing), when Laila had brought his provisions and expected a letter, he had written expressing anger #FreeAlaa
expressing anger that he continues to be deprived of reading. The prison authorities refused to take the letter to give to her.
Tuesday 13th – after his outburst in court the day before – Laila went to the Prison to ask for a letter. One of the officers sat with him #FreeAlaa
