When the suffering is on a scale that shakes the world, it belongs here. This tag brings together evidence of the worst acts — forced displacement, mass killings, systematic persecution — with each case linked to the Gaza Tribunal’s work. Witness Eye keeps these records not only for justice, but so no one can say “we didn’t know.”
The air in Rafah still holds the echo of a night that silenced an entire home. Among all the Gaza Stories, few are as haunting as Mustafa Al-Bawab’s. He was a bright student dreaming of building software and designing websites. But on December 3, 2023, everything ended in a single flash of fire. His home […]
The story of Amira Badawi stands among the most haunting Gaza Stories . Her voice carries both the fragility of loss and the strength of survival. At fourteen, she watched her entire world collapse under the roar of airstrikes. What happened that night in Rafah carved her name into the long, painful memory of the […]
When the bombs fell, the city screamed louder than sirens. Dust and fire swallowed everything familiar. Somewhere between Al-Shuja’iya and Sabra, an eleven-year-old boy named Mu’min Abu Asheeba lost his leg — and nearly his life. He was declared dead, his father was told to prepare a shroud, and yet, somehow, the boy opened his […]
When Gaza Stories set out to document the lives torn open by war, we expected grief and testimony; we did not expect the quiet, precise cadence of a surgeon explaining how a house “broke like a biscuit.” Dr. Ali Hassan Al-Nuwairi, 33, had built a life of rounds and operating rooms—an orthopedic specialist trained at […]
Sundus Zaqout on Survival, Loss, and the Work of Memory… When Gaza Stories are told, the first images are often ruins and statistics. But sometimes a single voice lifts above the dust. “I woke up under the rubble thinking I was dreaming,” says 27-year-old Sundus Issam Atiya Zaqout. In that suspended moment—between sleep and the […]
The first thing Ahmed tells me is where his family is rooted: the sand-colored lanes of Sheikh Radwan and the coastal strip everyone calls as-Sudaniyya. Before the war, that geography meant routine—factories humming, deliveries coming in, brothers arguing about prices and deadlines. “We’re a commercial and industrial family,” he says, not as a boast but […]
The first thing you hear is a name said softly: Abdul Rahman Al-Hamdiyat. He sits far from Gaza, a master’s student in new media, eyes held by live feeds that don’t blink. He watches the war and waits for messages to land through broken networks. He counts the hours his father spends alone in the […]
When Dr. Abdul Rahman Al-Farra speaks, his voice carries both memory and mourning. “They targeted us at home, and they targeted us in the tents,” he recalls. “It was not just destruction. It was extermination.” His words are part of a growing body of Gaza Stories—living testimonies that reveal the deliberate targeting of Palestinian families, […]
This is one of those Gaza Stories where survival itself becomes both a wound and a duty. Some losses don’t just change a family; they rewrite the very meaning of survival. For Muhammad Abu Nada, survival means carrying the memory of his father, two brothers, two sisters, and relatives who were killed when their home […]
When we speak of Gaza Stories, we are not only recounting moments of loss but also carrying fragments of memory that refuse to disappear. Among these stories is that of Rana Abu Maammar, a young academic who returned to Gaza after years abroad, only to lose almost her entire family in what she describes as […]
The call always came before the sun. “Wake up, wake up,” her mother would say, breathless with joy, letting the sound of mosque takbeers and the wind through the window spill into the receiver. On October 7, Hanadi Siyam woke to that voice again. “She made me live the moment,” Hanadi tells us. “Her voice, […]
The third part of Gaza Stories – A Test for Humanity: When Law Collapses reminds us that wars are never only about battlefields. They are about memory, erased villages, and the silence of doors locked for a return that never came. Dr. Wissam Atallah’s testimony brings this to life, showing how the story of Damra—renamed and […]
The streets that raised her are now a map of absences. In these Gaza stories, names become coordinates, homes become dates, and a life splits into a before and an after. Zahra Al-Rantisi remembers both with painful precision. Before October 7, she was behind the camera—filming for local outlets, collecting certificates, learning to turn light […]
Gaza Stories are often told through numbers—casualty counts, destroyed homes, statistics that flash on screens and then fade with the next update. But numbers cannot carry grief. For Waseem, living in exile, every number has a name: his mother and three sisters. They were his mother and three sisters, women who had built their lives […]
The streets of Beit Hanoun no longer echo with childhood laughter. In these Gaza stories, every corner of the city tells of bombardment, every wall carries scars of shattered lives. For journalist Hossam Shabat, Beit Hanoun is both his birthplace and his prison. “I was born here, my father was born here, and our family […]
War has taken almost everything from Mohammed Qreiqeh—his mother, his brother, his home. Yet, even as he buries his family, he returns to the camera. For him, journalism is not just a profession. It is a duty born from loss, a way to keep memories alive when graves are destroyed and voices silenced. Each report […]
The war in Gaza has lasted over 620 days, leaving behind more than just physical destruction. Entire generations are being marked by hunger, displacement, and deep sorrow. Among those who carry both grief and duty is Dr. Wisam Atallah. He is a legal scholar and a political researcher. But he is also a victim of […]
A Journalist Between Exile and War brings us the voice of Mohammed Al-Saidi, carrying both memory and struggle. From Deir al-Balah, where “safe zones” never truly meant safety, to the silence of exile, his story bridges two worlds. It speaks of bombed homes, untreated illnesses, and families torn apart. It also tells of young journalists […]
The call for justice is not only a question of international law; it is part of what Gaza Stories reveal — a demand rising from the ruins of families, schools, and hospitals across the besieged strip. In testimonies like that of Professor Nabeel Jumah, Gaza Stories remind us that people are not only victims of […]
When the world looks at Gaza, headlines often focus on the numbers of the dead. Yet behind those figures are thousands who are still unaccounted for — the missing. Their absence haunts families, leaving them trapped in unbearable uncertainty. In his testimony and work, researcher and advocate Ghazi Al Majdalawi, head of the Palestinian Center […]
Independent Initiative to Address War Crimes in Gaza The Gaza Tribunal, an independent people’s tribunal with humanitarian and moral objectives, is set to hold its first public session in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, on May 26, 2025. The tribunal’s mission is to examine alleged war crimes, human rights violations, and breaches of international law committed […]
