Ziad, a 35-year-old Palestinian, recounts the past few days in Gaza: his fear water will run out; the financial toll of war; and his wish to have normal conversations again
8am I never thought that I, in my 30s, would become like one of those old people who wake up and check the newspaper obituaries to see who has died. In my case, it is the internet not the newspaper – if we have a connection – and I check to see if anyone I know has died in the airstrikes and bombing. As for the age, I believe that you are as old as you feel, and these days I feel old. Very old.
