It’s been one year since Israel began its war on Gaza, and
since video journalist Bisan Owda picked up her camera to show the world what’s
happening on the ground.
In that time, she’s been forced from her home into
continuous displacement, had bombs fall around her and documented the stories
of Palestinians surrounded by their decimated homes.
She’s spoken to strangers sharing what little they have,
children trekking to get water for their families and people creating a way to
survive out of nothing. She’s ensured the world sees how life has changed
entirely for Palestinians, sharing stories of hunger, thirst, illness, injury,
bombings, grief and death.
Since October 2023, Israel’s assault has killed over 41,800
Palestinians, damaged or destroyed well over 70% of Gaza’s homes, throttled
aid, and leveled infrastructure necessary for survival.
