Gaza: Palestinian woman on everyday life between shelling and escape

Your children traumatized, their home destroyed, the nights without rocket noise soon over: Haneen Abdu Nahla is at the end of her tether, like so many people in Gaza. She asks herself: What future does she have in her homeland?

Haneen Abdu Nahla, fThe conflict has been going on for almost two months now, we know the pictures from Gaza, you yourself live there. The short ceasefire began last Friday and will end very soon. Can you describe the current situation?

When I heard about the ceasefire, I was optimistic at first. I hoped to return to my home in Gaza City to take some things with me, especially warm clothes for the winter. But some of our friends were shot at while trying.

What does your everyday life look like at the moment?
