[image ID: a tweet from Shayma (@/dpechesmode) posted on December 13 2023 that reads: “our house was bombed. my sister martyred and left two orphans behind. now i’m trying to evacuate my family of 16 out of gaza, but we need a lot of money to make it happen. your donation and sharing is very much appreciated. paypal.me/doaa94r” /End ID]
shayma is the sister of doaa abuajwa, who worked as an arabic instructor at al azhar university in gaza. doaa was martyred, along with one of her daughters, in early november by an israeli air strike. prior to her murder, a tweet of doaa’s where she talked about being happy to be able to scrape together a small “birthday party” for her daughter maria’s fifth birthday gained significant traction. (maria survived the attack and is now in the care of shayma)
