‘We want life': Palestinians in Gaza describe their daily struggle to survive

All Episodes

September 2, 2025 • 32 mins

Right now, Israel's military is invading and obliterating what remains of Gaza City. After 700 days of genocidal bombing, shooting, forced starvation, and the systematic destruction of schools, hospitals, farms, refugee camps, roads, houses, and the entire infrastructure of civilian life, the Palestinians clinging to life in Gaza City are being exterminated, while others run or limp for their lives with nowhere safe to go. Amid the horrors of Israel’s military onslaught, with starvation and illness spreading, Mohamed Abu Tawila, a former English teacher, and his nephew Abdul Rahman, a would-be college student, have been raising money online and risking their lives and safety to secure and transport clean water to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. In this urgent episode of Working People, TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez speaks with Mohamed and Abdul Rahman from Gaza about their daily struggle to live in the midst of genocide.
