Ahlam, located in the south of the enclave, is holding on “to testify” as long as she can. “Every time I leave the tent to cover an event, do an interview or document a story, I don’t know if I’ll come back alive.” Her biggest issue, she confirms, is the lack of food and water. We are watching their situation get worse. They’re young but their strength is leaving them. Most are no longer physically able to get around the enclave to do their work. Their heartbreaking cries for help are now daily. For the past few days, we have only received very brief messages from them, when they have the strength to send any. Their courage, considered heroic by the rest of the world, is now their only hope of survival. We may hear about their deaths at any moment, and this is unbearable. This Sunday, Bashar wrote: “For the first time, I feel defeated.” Later that day, he said he would thank us “for explaining that we live day to day between death and hunger.” “I wish President Macron would help me get out of this hell.” Ahlam is still holding on. “I try to keep exercising my profession, to speak for the voiceless, to document the truth despite all the attempts to silence it. Here, resistance isn’t a choice: it’s a necessity.” Since AFP was founded in 1944, we have lost journalists in conflicts, some have been injured, others taken prisoner. But none of us remember witnessing colleagues die of hunger". — The outgoing Editorial Committee (Société de Journalistes, SDJ) of the AFP

I do wonder what would happen if the nation caught a wiff of any progressive stronghold in Ohio. As much as I want it to be us I think Cinnci gets it.
