Residents say there is no alternative, with border crossings closed, food barely getting through and no resources to rebuild. The scenes reflect the reality imposed by Israel’s genocide in Gaza, where entire neighbourhoods have been levelled and survivors are forced to reuse the wreckage of their own homes to find basic shelter. With crossings sealed and reconstruction blocked, Palestinians are left to rebuild by hand amid fear, exhaustion and total deprivation. Support stories that matter.
