Testimony
Abu Bilal (in Arabic)
People are living in unbearable conditions here.
To have enough food to eat,
we have to send our wives and children to harvest crops.
They work for 30 cents per hour, or less, just to buy food for the day,
a kilo of tomatoes or cucumbers.
There’s no aid here.
We’ve been living here for four months now and there’s very little aid.
We receive nothing, no one cares about for the situation here.
As for toilets, they’re horrible.
You can see that toilet over there and a hole next to it for sewage.
This is how we’re living. It’s miserable
We need more tents, but what we lack most is food.
People lost everything. They had nothing but the clothes they were wearing.
They left with no money, no clothes, no nothing.
This is our fourth displacement.
