Montaser Bahja, an English teacher from Jabaliya, described his family's struggles as they sought shelter in an empty apartment, covering shattered windows with plastic wrap to combat the cold. During the recent rainstorm, the regular bombardment slowed to an occasional blast, marking a brief respite. However, the hope for peace quickly dwindled as the bombardment resumed on New Year's Eve, shocking Mr. Bahja and highlighting the ongoing turmoil and despair faced by Gazans.
As the humanitarian crisis intensifies, many Gazans find themselves displaced and destitute, living in makeshift shelters without adequate access to food or clean water. The situation has dramatically worsened following repeated Israeli offensives aimed at combatting what is stated as a Hamas resurgence. Many families, like that of Montaser Bahja, continue to endure the misery of their environment, grappling with both the elements and the impacts of ongoing conflict.
