i have been walking in my area, Hamra, today and yesterday, i tried to take pictures of the Mar elias area but the Future militias stopped me, and confiscated my film and threatened me.

so i went with my roommate to buy some bread and food for the next few days and there were a lot of people buying lots of food. the scene was weird to me as i havent witnessed these things before, the scene might be normal for a lebanese, but to a syrian, i mean i am not feeling very well here.

when we left the super market-all the mini markets were closed-we heard small explosions and we started running to our apartment.

i have been sitting near the balcony all day and all i can hear is gun-fire and bombs. i think the reason i am writing now is perhaps i am no longer in denial. i am hearing shootings, and bombs.
