Through the videos of Medo, a 20-year-old young man, we learned what the daily life of a displaced person in Gaza looks like, what they eat, how they survive or where they sleep. And we talk about the past because Medo was killed in an Israeli bombing.
With his videos, he showed the world what everyday life is like in a refugee camp in Gaza. Medo Halimy narrated his daily life on social media almost like any other teenager. He taught his more than 200,000 subscribers When she was shopping, she shared her recipes and how she did laundry. with just a bucket and a hose.
He showed us what it was like to sleep, in fact, to live in a tent, with his concern for learning Spanish. Everything that is normal about living in southern Gazaas a refugee fleeing bombing and with only a few hours of electricity and internet connection per day.
But Medo’s life was cut even shorter when, like hundreds of displaced people, he had to flee to the coast to seek one of the last safe havens in a strip increasingly surrounded by the Israeli army. It was there that one of the missile attacks ended his life. His last print, a video from four days ago.
But they will never be able to erase the digital footprint of their testimony. With Medo’s death, another life is extinguished, a direct witness to the difficult, almost impossible, life in a Gaza that has already seen more than 40,000 people die.
