The Palestinians display final messages and farewell letters on social networks, expressing their fear of not surviving in the middle of the intensity of the bombing of carpets of Israel of the Gaza Strip.
Many Palestinians from Gaza have turned to social media since the start of the Israel assault in October 2023 to communicate with each other, document the Israeli attacks and their daily experiences, and share their thoughts, their hopes and their lives with the international public in a period when media, social media platforms and artistic establishments and education establishments are accused of censor Freedom of expression linked to war.
In the past 24 hours, however, the posts expressing despair in the midst of the gravity and destructiveness of the attacks and fear that the people of Gaza do not survive this time, have skyrocketed.
Thursday, Israel killed at least 112 Palestinians, in what has become the deadliest day since Israel resumed his war against the besieged enclave on March 18.

“It seems that we do not survive this time …” reads legend.
For the first time in months, the inhabitants of Gaza send a message with their farewells. And there is a silence of a pin drop on the news.

Rafah Abdallah Alattar journalist in the southern gang of Gaza shared: “It seems that we would not do it this time” Friday morning, which was widely broadcast and linked.
Gaza literally breathes her last.
We will no longer bother you with our news.
It’s just a matter of days, and everyone will be martyred.
Go back to your normal life.
But … we will not forgive you.Thank you for your support in the last 18 months. pic.twitter.com/4xjn0lvd34

Abubaker Amed, a football journalist from Deir al-Balah, expressed in an article that the inhabitants of Gaza “know that the world has dropped them and that their murder is a matter of time”.

Several users have also called on people and the world’s powers to be careful and to speak to the inhabitants of Gaza, faced not only with bombing, but also with famine due to the blockade of Israel on food and essential elements.
“Bombs above, hungry below-Gaza suffers. How long can we bear this?” wrote a Palestinian. “The world must act now!”
It seems that we do not survive this time. Save us, do something for us, defend us. I hope that my family and I are dying of bombing and not of the starvation.https: //t.co/8l8fblx6qnhttps: //t.co/dhawrczcaz https://t.co/y31t1wmwl8

The War of Israel against Gaza continues to be supported and financed by its allies, especially the United States.
In March, the Donald Trump administration bypassed a normal congress review to approve a sale of weapons of nearly $ 3 billion in Israel.
On Thursday, independent American senator Bernie Sanders tried to present two joint disapproval resolutions to block the value of $ 8.8 billion in offensive weapons in Israel already approved by the Trump administration.
Only 15 senators, including Tim Kaine and the former presidential hope Elizabeth Warren, voted to move forward and the vote to block the transfers of weapons failed.
Prayers and self-elevates
Several users have also used their social media accounts to publish farewell messages and prayers in case they are to die.
Gaza’s people on social networks taking their Shahadas before an imminent or pleading death so that the world withdraws them after the intensified genocide of Israel is the most heartbreaking thing of all time.
And it is the result of the shameful silence and ignorance of the world.

The writer and pharmacist of Gaza Omar Hamad, published a farewell message on X on Thursday evening, saying that he thought that his messages had not made a difference.
“At first, I was impatient to share everything that my hands could write,” he said. “But I do not know what you need to see or read to finally climb against everything that is happening – not for us, but for your conscience, for your faith, so that you do not fight with your conscience when you fall asleep.”
After this tweet, I decided to stop publishing permanently and say goodbye to all those I had the honor of knowing here.
Writing has always been, and it’s always my only escape from everything I feel. In the midst of this genocide, I decided to share what I wrote and expose the crimes of …

“I never felt death approaching me so close to me throughout the genocide as I do these days,” Hamad wrote in a separate article on April 3.
Hamza Alsharif, doctor of the European hospital and the Al-Aqsa hospital posted on X that the attacks “intensify in all areas of the band”, and that “blood is everywhere”.
Right now, I am Dr. Hamza, who tells you about the Gaza Strip.
Occupation exterminates us all right now.
The bombing is intensifying in all areas of the band, from north to south. Children are deprived of heads and martyrs are dismembered, their … pic.twitter.com/svcqyyur7c– Dr.hamza Alsharif π΅πΈ (@ hamzasharif5750) April 3, 2025
“If I die, I am not a figure, I am a planet in itself, I have dreams and ambitions that I wanted to make. Do not forget myself in your prayers and continue to talk about me,” wrote Dr. Alsharif in a post pinned to his profile since March 18.
Last month, an Israeli missile targeted and killed Al Jazeera’s journalist, 23, Hossam Shabat in Beit Lahiya just hours after Mohammad Mansour, correspondent for Palestine today, was killed in an Israeli air strike that targeted his house. His wife and son were killed next to him.
A few hours after Hossam’s death, his colleagues published a message written by Hossam himself, indicating that he had the feeling that he would probably be targeted.
“If you read this, it means that I was killed – probably targeted – by the Israeli occupation forces,” said the 23 -year -old.
The Self-written praise of Hospals recalled the famous Palestinian poet and academic Refaat Alareer, who was killed in an Israeli air strike in December of last year and whose poem widely disseminated “ If I must die ” has become a symbol of hope and resistance in the middle of the War of Israel.
