The story A Torturous Truth has been published by Dissident Voice magazine. It contains updates on many of the Gaza refugees I’ve written about in the past year and a half.

You can also purchase Gaza refugee Farah Kamal’s cookbook A Palestinian Feast by sending $10 to her friend’s PayPal and then messaging her on Instagram here or emailing her at fre7akamal122@gmail.com.
