Using AI to create fake identities, they get remote jobs, then hide in plain sight—in Slack, on Zooms, and in corporate infrastructure.

Abeer’s husband, Ehab, and her children Tala, Zeyad, Mohmmed, and Talia, are stuck in North Gaza and need your help to survive Israel’s genocide.
Message I just got from her on Signal:
“Tonight they had to sleep on the street because they couldn’t find a place and had to return to North Gaza. They don’t have the money to rent even a small piece of land or to buy a tent.”
