1/6 Ayman Safiah, a Palestinian artist, dancer & beautiful soul from the Galilean town of Kufir Yassif went missing in the sea south of Haifa earlier this week. When his friends reported his disappearance in the water the Israeli authorities asked if he was Arab or Jewish.
2/6 After some time a helicopter was sent and his body was spotted but they did not attempt a rescue because they said the waves and wind were too strong. It left soon after and the authorities did not continue with the search.
3/6 His friends organised volunteers to continue the search with private boats, drones & scuba dive equipment. But the Israeli police prevented the boats from going in the sea & even fined volunteers for gathering. Eventually Ayman’s body was found by his friends earlier today.
4/6 This is the reality of the Zionist regime. Palestinian lives do not matter from the river to the sea. Even in the most intimate space of death and grief, the Zionist regime still penetrates, Ayman’s friends in the West Bank will be prevented from attending his funeral.
5/6 However his friends have shown that they are stronger than the Zionist regime & it’s violent ethnic supremacy. They displayed their strength on Palestine’s shore, continuing the search & never giving up & they displayed it on social media coming together in their 1000s.
6/6 No matter how they to choose to erase our identity, by calling us Israeli Arabs, refugees, Gazans etc. it is clear that being Palestinian is political, in life or death. Rest in power Ayman.
