'You come and go
I see you once or twice a year
With either flames or sticks
And I weep for the rest of the year
But one day
My twigs shall grow,
The oil shall flow,
My people shall glow,
And you, you will go'
Refaat was targeted + killed on the 6th of December 2023 in his house in Gaza. I don't have anything else to say. Read this to keep his memory alive, read this to ensure Israeli narratives can never win.
