   Earlier this year, many of you contributed to Ahmed Issa's crowdfund (who'd I met at Palestine Writes festival last year), to help him and his young family escape from the genocide. I forgot to post follow up news: he did escape to safety, with his wife and two sons. And is applying to universities to continue his education.

   Ahmed promised to pay it forward if he got out, and he's indeed been doing that. He's set up a scholarship program to mentor tertiary students in Gaza. He needs financial support to continue this work > https://gofund.me/ee7f3f8a

   Now, the sad news.

   Sha'aban al-Dalo, the young man that Israel murdered with fire yesterday, was a student supported by this Scholarships for Gaza. Shaaban had earlier been injured in a bombing attack when he was sheltering outside of al-Asqa hospital. He was then treated, stitches and an IV, and was once again sheltering in a tent outside of the hospital. Israel then burnt him alive. The world watched Shaaban's last - excruciatingly painful - moments.

   On Insta, Ahmed Issa's shared his last communication with Shaaban:
