Ayah Abujarbou is a Palestinian Canberran with her daughter Razan, 11 months old. Ayah's oldest brother and his family of 6 are without food and power in Gaza. She feels helpless not knowing if they will survive this war. She lived in Gaza before coming to Australia and said she now feels guilty about having drinking water and being able to charge her phone. She says her brother is going through something 10 times worse than what she went through in Gaza. She says he is terrified for his family and doesn't know if they'll survive this conflict. She feels constantly retraumatised when she sees the events unfolding in Gaza.
