Ep. 1

  • In the first episode of Echoes from Gaza, Amal, Ahmad, Mohammad, and Alaa share their life stories, which were interrupted by war. Their testimonies intertwine memories of Gaza before and after October 7, 2023. Themes of resistance, identity, and collective memory emerge through historical reflections on the Nakba and the occupation.

Ep. 2

  • Today, the Gaza Strip is a giant tent city. For those who have survived, mourning is part of daily life. First-hand accounts from Amal, Mohammed, and Ahmad, along with analysis from experts such as Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories, show how hunger and siege are used as weapons of war.

Ep. 3

  •  The Rafah crossing is the only access point between Gaza and Egypt. The stories of Alaa and Mohammad's escape tell of the desperation of leaving their homeland and facing an uncertain future. Experts such as Joost Hiltermann and Riccardo Fabiani analyze Israeli military control and the political dynamics between Israel, Egypt, and Palestine.

Ep. 4

  • This episode focuses on the difficulties faced by Palestinian refugees in Cairo. Amal and Ahmad talk about the obstacles they face, including high rents and precarious permits. In the background, Egypt balances its role as political mediator with its growing control over Gaza. Despite everything, the Palestinian community is organizing to support itself.

Ep. 5

  • For many Palestinian women and those in the diaspora, the link between patriarchal and colonial oppression is deeply intertwined. Through the voices of Ruhi Aktar and Amal, the links between the two types of oppression emerge. Alongside them, the voices of journalist Cecilia Dalla Negra and lawyer Francesca Albanese help to outline a tribute to the global struggle for justice and memory.

Ep. 6

  • This episode focuses on the escalation of the conflict in Lebanon, intertwining stories of resilience and devastation. Danielle Khalil recounts the impact of Israeli bombings, while experts analyze the role of Hezbollah and the Lebanese socio-political crisis. Amidst devastation and solidarity, the plight of Palestinian refugees in camps such as Chatila emerges.

Ep. 7

  • Since 1948, Palestine has been the world's open wound. From Chad to Iraq. From South Asia to Yemen. To the coasts of West Africa: Gambia, Senegal, Guinea Conakry. For these lands and peoples with a colonial history behind them, Palestine is not just a wound: it is a symbol.
