In besieged Yarmouk, a Palestinian refugee camp in Damascus, inhabitants congregate in the few places there is signal to make phone calls. Signal #2 Hello? Yeah Abu Hmeid, I can hear you I can hear you. I’ve got signal, how are you? How’s it going? How’s the school you’re staying in? Have you got signal? No, it’s a satellite phone. Oh, so there’s no signal here? Bro look at me I’m talking, of course there’s signal, call! There is? Yes there is. Yes Abu Hmeid. You’re coming back? Yeah come, there’s nothing to worry about. We’ve got shells, yes. Snipers? Got them too. Clashes? As many as you want. Car bombs? No, we’ve run out. But listen, your beard, how long is it? No what do you mean shaved on two, cut it. Listen for a minute, shave it off, then wait outside the Syriatel shop [on the border of the rebel-held area] until it grows. Then come. Are there snipers this way? Stay next to the wall and carry on straight Electricity? The electricity’s great. This is how it works. First it cuts. Then it comes back for two or three hours and then they cut it again. Then they put it on for half an hour. Then they cut it again. That’s until the night. It comes on at night. And then they cut it again. Yeah it comes on at night by itself! The guys are well. No Abood’s now in Rome. Mahmoud’s in Beirut. Ali’s in Khan al-Sheikh. Ahmad? Yeah, yeah I can hear you. May he rest in peace.
