Anas, were people hurt or killed in that attack on the Nima residents?

Wow. You know, there are many lessons that we can all learn from Nimer's story. You asked Nimer what lessons about life he's learned from the past year of trying to survive in Gaza, and here's what he said. I learned, said Nimr, that extreme hunger makes people do things they never thought they would ever do. Nimr says he, for example, ran to a very dangerous place just to find food.

He says another lesson he's learned is that even if they shoot at us, whether we're young or old, we should never give up. Anas, you also asked Nimr about his future, his dreams, and if he sees a future for Gaza. And his answer was darker.

Gaza will never have a future. He goes on to say that he has dreams just like everyone else, but that the Israeli military has destroyed all of their dreams. He says nobody in his family has been untouched by this war. Anas, I think it's worth reminding our listeners that we are listening to the words of a 12-year-old child. What's going to happen to children like Nimer in the future?

The last thing I wanted to ask you on is, you know, because Nimr is still a child, I wanted you to ask him about his thoughts on school. You know, Nimr has not been to school since October of 2023. Here's what he told you. And he's saying here, I miss school so much. I miss my friends. I miss learning. I miss writing. I just want to see my friends again and to play with them again.

But the war continues. What, he asks, can we do? Anas, I want to thank you for all of your reporting from Gaza. You've brought us so many stories like this one, and they're very, very important for all of us to hear. Thank you, Anas. Thank you, Rob. That's NPR Gaza producer Anas Baba joining us from Gaza.

Well, for the most part, it was the struggling German economy. Scholz's government collapsed over a dispute about how to revive it. But it was also Scholz himself who's been the problem for voters. His slow, methodical approach to governing did not suit the chaotic times that Europe is in with a war on European soil and an economic downturn.
