Footage shows families displaced to Gaza City without tent or food
Footage shared by our colleague Hossam Shabat shows the plight of families displaced from the besieged town of Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza.
They were sitting on the ground next to a huge pile of rubble without tents or food in the darkness of the cold night in Gaza City.
One of the women said: “For God’s sake, have mercy on us and our children. We don’t know where to go from the cold, and I have a heart condition, I can’t speak. For God’s sake, bring us a tent.”
