For those who have escaped Gaza, the journey back to normal life is just beginning. As they return home, they face a new set of challenges, including stress, trauma, and precarious health. The experience of being held captive in tunnels or confined to dark corners of the Gaza Strip has left an indelible mark. As they navigate their way towards healing and recovery, they must confront the long-term consequences of their ordeal, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and emotional trauma. With the right support and care, they can begin to rebuild their lives and find a sense of peace and stability. Mental health support and trauma counseling are crucial in this process.
