Mo El-Deeb’s mom and dad, Talal and Naila, are unable to leave Gaza after they went there from their house in London to see their family members.
He finally talked to his dad on the weekend after not being able to reach him for a few days and thinking something bad had happened.
Talal said that the past few days were very loud and scary, like when the bombing started. He doesn’t think the situation will get better soon.
Mo says to me that he does not have any power or control over something. “I have completed all tasks that were within my capability. ” I have talked to the Foreign Office around 100 times.
“My mom and dad went to the border three times because they were told to. Two times they went, it got bombed. The third time they were there for five hours and nothing bad happened. ”
“There is no way to stop or escape from this bad dream,” he says.
We asked the Foreign Office for a statement. They said: “We have been staying in touch with British people in Gaza and will keep them informed about the current situation at the Rafah crossing. “
Date:
‘I’ve probably spoken with the Foreign Office a hundred times’
