Cooking in Gaza is now a toxic affair
"To eat, we are forced to breathe the poisonous smoke from burning wood and trash."
"We turned to firewood. I remember my mother saying, From today, we cannot even make a cup of tea for suhoor."
In Gaza, families now struggle to prepare meals amid gas shortages, leading them to rely on firewood, which poses risks from military surveillance and attacks. The transition has transformed once-familiar kitchen sounds into reminders of scarcity and fear. Families avoid cooking at night to evade drone strikes and makehift clay ovens emerge as a solution amid a choking haze of smoke from burning wood. The health risks from inhaling harmful smoke add to the challenges of daily survival, as communities adapt to harsh conditions during Ramadan.
