I can’t believe we lived through these days. The haunting scenes of starved youths heading to and from the notorious GHF sites will stay with me. A dark stain on the history of the US and Israel.

After more than two years of Israeli genocide and blockade, the Palestinians of Gaza are facing ever-deteriorating conditions as Israel keeps crossings closed and continues its attacks across the besieged enclave. Al Jazeera's @MaramGaza explains.

To you, these are effervescent tablets for respiratory tract disorders. To me, at some point during the genocide, this was my coke :) One of the strangest, and somehow funniest, "survival hacks" that emerged in Gaza was this. During the first months of Israel’s starvation of Gaza, markets ran out of almost everything, including all kinds of juice and soft drinks. You simply could not find them anywhere in the Strip. For many people, especially those who were used to having a soft drink with meals (like me), that small daily habit was suddenly gone. Then, at some point, I’m not even sure how it started, people began turning to pharmacies instead. Effervescent medications and vitamins became the closest thing we had to a fizzy drink. At the time, I was displaced in Rafah, living with several families in one house. When we gathered for lunch, the table often looked unusual, with bottles of effervescent tablets placed between the plates, everyone with a cup of water, dropping a tablet in and waiting for the bubbles as if it were a soft drink. One of the funniest scenes I remember was a displaced man who liked to have his quiet “evening time.” He would sit in the kitchen smoking argileh, and beside he would drink three or four cups of water with effervescent tablets. His wife would sometimes complain that he was overdoing it, but he didn’t care, he drank them slowly, as if they were cans of coke. We would sit nearby, laughing at their small arguments over the amount he consumed. Of course, after some time, even these tablets disappeared from pharmacies due to high demand. This bottle in the picture is still half full. I brought it with me from Rafah. This was once my coke. Today, it’s a tangible reminder that I survived all of this.
