So as you know I am Palestinian ,I am from Nablus and I live there ,I have a friend from Gaza who I have known for a year before the war had started .

he was born and raised in Gaza and even lived in Gaza during the war for about 7 months before managing to go to Egypt ,I’ve asked my Friend if he’s okay with this and he has said yes and the mods have approved of my request as well

So come on ,you’re not gonna get this chance again

ask him anything

What's it like for him being in Egypt? Are people welcoming? Has he been able to find community with other Palestinians? Does he feel safe?

He says Egyptian people are really good with us and treat us like family, ge didn't manage to find a Palestinian community because of them are in Cairo and they are in Sinai because rent is very high in Cairo, they pay 200-220 dollar per month in sinai ,But in Egypt its 500 minimum

As for safety ,he says Alhamdulillah he's safe but internally he doesn't feel safe because the war is ongoing ,ge feels as if an F16 plane will come and bomb him and he gets Afraid to go to to the balcony because he still thinks he's ving in gaza from the shocking things he's seen, he imagines himself there
