When the children of Gaza search for food among the waste and rubble!!

The children of the Gaza Strip no longer have a way to obtain food except by rummaging through waste and rubbish amidst piles piled high with tons, over which bulldozers pass but cannot remove it from the places of residence.


The worsening health crisis in the Gaza Strip increases the misery of the war that has closed the doors to Gazans and has shut down all hopes for the return of dreams and drawing stories of joy on the faces of frowning children who are captured by the lenses of photographers, television stations and social networking sites as they search among the garbage for fruits or vegetables with which to satisfy their hunger and thirst for fear of death. Which affected 35 citizens due to hunger and threatens thousands.


The piles of garbage that spread everywhere disturb citizens, who also complain about its smell and mosquito attacks at night, as this has led to hundreds suffering from skin diseases such as scabies and allergies. One citizen appealed to the municipalities to make every effort to remove the waste that also caused mold.


This claim seems to be just a wish, because life in Gaza is non-existent, everything is at a standstill, and the losses of infrastructure, sanitation, containers, and cleaning mechanisms that Israel destroyed are estimated in the millions.


There are many problems that the sector suffers from as a result of the systematic Israeli policy that seeks to slowly kill Gazans, prevent them from obtaining water, medicine, food and electricity, and leave them living in the open, without safety factors, and amid overwhelming, noisy and complex humanitarian conditions, and all of this is in parallel with the massacres committed by the occupation army in Gaza Strip on a daily basis..


If we take into account what the children of Gaza are suffering, for example but not limited to them, we stop at very stark numbers. There are more than 16,172 innocent martyrs, 17,000 children living without parents or one of them, 3,500 children at risk of death due to hunger, and 70 percent of The victims of the genocide are women and children.


The citizens of the Gaza Strip are tired of this life in which Israel seeks to humiliate and humiliate them, by wounding their pride and feelings, and preventing them from obtaining their minimum human and social rights, as if they were living in a cage closed in from all directions and a dark tunnel, from which light must emerge one day, so that the citizens of the Strip could rise up. Gaza and rise from under the rubble and pain to rebuild their lives despite the measures of the occupier, the likes of which the world has not witnessed since the emergence of humanity, as the Permanent Observer of Palestine to the United Nations, Riyad Mansour, said (what is happening in Gaza will be recorded as the most documented genocide in history), and it will remain a scene of children. Gaza extracting their food from the rubbish and waste is the biggest stain on the face of the planet.
