"I want to live like the rest of the children outside of Gaza, I dream of leaving this prison, I feel like I am in jail. I miss going to school, I miss playing with my friends, I just want this war to end. I am really tired. I don't feel that I am alive. We have one wish, the war to end." These are the words of Zeina Abu Libdeh, daughter of one of MAP’s colleagues in Gaza. Today is Zeina's 10th birthday, all she wants is a ceasefire.
