If you're reading this, it meams I have been killed - most likely targeted - by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old - a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life tto my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents - anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people's side. By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I asked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest - something I haven't known in the past 18 months. I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serve its people. I ask you now: do not speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories - until Palestine is free. - for the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.
