Deep dives

The Impact of Trauma on Palestinians

The ongoing violence and trauma experienced by Palestinians have profound psychological effects that extend beyond those directly affected. Dr. Samar Hijabr emphasizes that trauma can persist long after physical injuries heal, often surfacing when individuals begin to process their experiences. This generational trauma affects not only those in Gaza but also relatives and communities worldwide who witness the ongoing violence through media. As people are forced to confront their own fears and helplessness, they may experience guilt and anxiety about bringing children into such a hostile environment.
