Today marks the second anniversary of the killing of Dr. Refaat Alareer.

Refaat and members of his family were murdered on December 6, 2023, when Israeli occupation air forces carried out an airstrike on his sister’s home in northern Gaza.

He was a Palestinian academic, writer, and poet from the Gaza Strip, often described as a pioneer of English‑language Palestinian literature.

Today is two years since Israel murdered writer, educator and activist Professor Refaat Alareer in Gaza. In memory of him and the thousands of beautiful Palestinians whose lives were stolen by the apartheid state, we keep fighting for freedom, justice and equality for Palestine. Let's it be a tale..

If I must die Refaat Alareer If I must die you must live totell my story to sell my things to buy a piece of cloth and some strings, (make it white with a long tail) so that a child,somewhere in Gaza while looking heaven in the eye awaiting his dad who left in a blaze- and bid no one farewell not even to his flesh not even to himself- sees the kite, my kite you made, flying up above and thinks for a moment an angel is there bringing back love If I must die let it bring hope let it be a tale
