Robert Abela – This Palestinian Family Is Dying In Gaza And Desperately Needs Your Help
Prime Minister Robert Abela – if there was ever a matter of life and death where you could save a vulnerable family, it is now.
Talat Al Hasayna, a respected construction businessmen whose family had millions in assets, has been destroyed.
With dozens of his family killed – including his wife, children and father – is military strikes in November, Talat is no longer living his life, but living in a tent in a dessert, fearful of the next strikes.
Having come to Malta in 2019 to study English, Talat considers Malta his second home – which is why he is appealing to the Maltese government to grant him and his family refugee status, and allow them to come to Malta for “a second chance at a second chance”.
“My life story is linked to Malta, and I consider it my second home. Now, I lay here in a barren desert, having the duty to protect the remaining members of my family. My responsibility is to protect them, establish a decent life for them, so they can live in peace.”
“I am hereby asking for considering this as a humanitarian case allowing us entry in Malta as refugees. We are in danger, persecuted and not leading a decent life. We humbly ask for a chance to get a second chance to live in peace, security, and reassurance so that we can start over again and renew the broken dreams of my family and ambitions which all were lost on that tragic night of the 22nd November.”

After the bombing on the 22nd, Talat had to escape from the rubble that collapsed on him and his family. Miraculously, he survived – but he is tormented by the thoughts of his wife and children, who were taken in the harshest manner.
Talat’s daily struggle is finding food, water and electricity – but with a new lease of life in Malta, alongside a reliable business reputation a a hard-working, honest family, Robert Abela, you have the power to change this man’s life, and show compassion on the world stage.
