We came back home yesterday.

Haitham: "We came back home yesterday. There are bullets in the walls, the glass is broken along with other things, so we are trying to repair the damage in order for my parents to come back. There are so many changes. People are going back to their homes. They are out in the streets, but people are miserable and depressed. The landscape in Gaza has changed. The roads are not as they used to be.

"From the point of view of a civilian I feel like the cease fire is not real. We were really scared yesterday when we were on our way to home. The Israelis started the war and they ended it, so it is up to them. We just hope things get better."
