After the soldiers took her doll and took pictures of it, we returned to Gaza and found it in our home. Here, my daughter holds her doll again, as if hope never dies

In the cold winter air, with the rain tapping on the tent roof… she still smiles. My little girl knows nothing of the world except the warmth of her tiny doll, as if she’s telling us: as long as we can play… we can dream.

What did this child do to deserve this? She has no home and lives in a tent made of cloth. Every contribution helps in the life of innocent child Yara.

Yara was born in 2024, at the start of the war. She turned one year old in 2025 and another year old in 2026. She was born in war and grew up in war. This is the reality for Yara and the children of Gaza.

She runs, frightened by the sound of shelling, calling out to me: "Baba..." And I am powerless to stop the noise, with nothing left to do but hold her tight.

This is not an ordinary photo. It is a memory of displacement. On a day like this, we left our home and went to Rafah. Yara was too young to understand the meaning of displacement, yet she was greater than the war…

Between two Ramadans, you grew up, Yara… Two years of war on Gaza and more, and you are growing before my eyes despite everything, and my heart grows a thousand times with you.
