Nader Al-Anqar is 17 year old. He was studying hard and trying to graduate when his school was bombed and destroyed.
His family has been displaced over ten times. During the short ceasefire they were allowed to return home, but when they arrived they found it bombed and ruined beyond livable conditions. They're now homeless and are trying to survive in desperate conditions, fearing bombs day and night.
His family includes his mom, his dad (who has cancer and needs urgent treatment), his little brother Mohammed (14 years old), his older brother Abdul Salam (26 years old), his sister-in-law Aya Al-Batniji, and his niece Iman (who is only 1 year old). He worries for his father who can't receive cancer treatment because Israel destroyed so much of the healthcare system, infrastructure, and resources. He worries for his baby niece who has been born into genocidal conditions and only knows this level of danger.
He is just a kid. We text over Signal and he is shouldering so much responsibility for the survival of his whole family trying to fund-raise on tumblr.
He and his brother survived an explosion of two planes just last night. I'm sure you've seen other posts discussing the recent bombings.
He just sent me this recording. You can hear the sound of helicopters firing nearby.
Things are really scary, and he is desperate for help. He shouldn't have to do this alone.
