The women in Gaza face unimaginable hardships as they navigate life in crowded tent camps, forced to compromise their dignity and privacy while trying to maintain modesty in often chaotic and dire conditions.
Alaa Hamami exemplifies the struggle for dignity in the camps, stating how her life has become a constant reminder of modesty; ‘Our whole lives have become prayer clothes, even to the market we wear it.’
Wafaa Nasrallah highlights the dire conditions of basic needs, sharing: ‘I cannot afford to buy sanitary pads... I have tried using pieces of cloth and even nappies, but they have also increased in price.’
With winter approaching, the situation for displaced women becomes more desperate, as they face the harsh reality of choosing between buying menstrual hygiene products and essential food and water.
