In the heart-wrenching backdrop of Gaza's tumultuous reality, "If I must die" unveils a deeply moving story that explores the profound impact of loss on one family's journey through grief, resilience, and the enduring power of love. At the centre of the story is Shayma, a loving daughter and sister, whose life is abruptly shattered by the indiscriminate violence that has become an all-too-familiar presence in her homeland. This episode was recorded on the 10th of January.
