6. GAZA with Mosab Abu Toha

Edgar Mannheimer
About this episode

It's been six months since the October 7 attack. Since then, over 33,000 Palestinians have been killed as a result of Israel's bombing campaign and ground invasion of Gaza, nearly 14,000 of whom are children.

The renowned Gazan poet Mosab Abu Toha joins Edgar today for a discussion about what it means to grow up in what Masha Gessen likens to a Nazi concentration camp.

We would like to dedicate this episode to all the murdered poets of Gaza.
