Dawwas uses fabric and wood to provide people with footwear as the nearly month-long war has left the coastal enclave in ruins. An ongoing blockade of Gaza has led to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine, creating a dire humanitarian situation on the ground.
Palestinian Sabir Dawwas crafts shoes from wood and fabric amid the Israeli blockade preventing the entry of clothing and essentials into Gaza. Israel claims that Hamas guards killed them, while Hamas says it is still awaiting details. Hamdan also said the UN should consider the role of Israeli forces in killing their own captives in previous air strikes or botched rescue efforts.
One victim, a young girl, was found still wearing her roller skates when she was killed in an Israeli attack. Of those, 42 Palestinians were killed and wounded in the past 24 hours, the ministry added.
We will be upping our game, our campaigning … making the case to end arms sales to Israel and save lives. Palestinian children are being vaccinated [in Deir el-Balah] amid loud explosions in the eastern areas of Bureij and Maghazi refugee camps, which are excluded from both the humanitarian pause in fighting and the vaccination campaign. Witnesses have told us that Israeli military tanks and troops are advancing towards the eastern side of Maghazi refugee camp.
As a result, residents of Bureij and Maghazi are struggling to reach Deir el-Balah to get their children vaccinated.
