A Prince Albert man is living his worst nightmare as his wife and four children, aged 3-12, are stranded in Gaza amid the Israel-Gaza war.

Abdullah Algherbawi worries for his family. With limited electricity and Wi-Fi, he is rarely able to contact them.

“Normally when you ask someone, ‘How are you?’ they will tell you, ‘Not too bad,’” Algherbawi said.

“But the answer there, ‘We are still alive.’”

In a recent video call, Algherbawi saw the toll it has taken on his children.

“I saw the trauma in their eyes,” he said.

His 3-year-old daughter begged him for help.
