Sanaa Kamal is a freelance journalist, who was born and raised in Gaza.
She has lived through a series of wars in Gaza, but nothing like the war that followed the Hamas-led attacks of October 7th.
In this five-part podcast from The New Arab in London, Sanaa tells her story. From the first day of the war, escaping her home, and narrowly avoiding attacks, to finding a way for her and her family survive as the bombs continued to rain down and the food began to run out, to trying to continue her work as a journalist, and report on a tragedy that was tearing her life apart.
Produced by Hugo Goodridge.

By April 2024, Sanaa and her family decided that it was time to get out of Gaza.
They had experienced seven months of the brutal conflict, been forced from their homes, and lost countless friends and family members.
At the time, the only way out of Gaza was through the Rafah border crossing. And while deciding to leave was one thing, the actually task of crossing, was a whole different matter.
In episode four of Sanaa's Odyssey, we follow Sanaa and her family as they navigate the murky business of migration and difficult decisions they had to make when it came time to cross.
Sanaa's Odyssey is written and produced by Hugo Goodridge.
