Rami Abu Jamous is keeping a diary for Orient XXI. The founder of Gaza Press, an agency which helped and interpreted for western correspondents, he was obliged by the Israeli army to leave his Gaza City apartment with his wife Sabah, her children, and their two and a half year-old son, Walid, in October 2023.
