- I survived the genocide in Gaza, but still carry its scars within me
Ahmed Abu Artema recounts surviving the genocide in Gaza and how daily life in exile still reflects trauma from years of siege, occupation, and resource scarcity. He describes compulsions like overcharging phones and contrasts Gaza's electricity shortages with Europe's abundance, while noting parallels to historical trauma, such as a Dutch woman's food hoarding linked to WWII famine.
