Palestinians in Gaza want Donald Trump, who won the US election, to end the conflict between Israel and Hamas that has devastated their territory, AFP reports.

“We were displaced, killed… there’s nothing left for us, we want peace,” Mamdouh al-Jadba, who was displaced to Gaza City from Jabalia, told AFP.

“I hope Trump finds a solution, we need someone strong like Trump to end the war and save us, enough, God, this is enough,” said the 60-year-old. “I was displaced three times, my house was destroyed, my children are homeless in the south… There’s nothing left, Gaza is finished.”

Umm Ahmed Harb, from the Al-Shaaf area east of Gaza City, was also counting on Trump to “stand by our side” and end the territory’s suffering. “God willing the war will end, not for our sake but for the sake of our young children who are innocent, they were martyred and are dying of hunger,” she told AFP.
