Israel-Gaza: Palestinian family moves from shelters back to destroyed home as “lesser of 2 evils”

Global News published this video item, entitled “Israel-Gaza: Palestinian family moves from shelters back to destroyed home as “lesser of 2 evils”” – below is their description.

After their home was destroyed in an Israeli airstrike, the Kullab family was forced to move into shelters with other displaced Palestinians, but the overcrowding and unsanitary conditions drew them out and back to their destroyed home.

Now the family lives among the rubble that remains of their residential building in Khan Yunis, “the lesser of two evils,” according to Ramzi Kullab.

The family now uses a small grill to bake bread on the stairwell and a small tank filled with water for bathing and drinking.

Plus, in a makeshift tent city in the southern Gaza Strip teeming with thousands of displaced people, three cats called Simsim, Brownie and Liza are giving rare moments of joy to children who have lost any semblance of normality in their lives. The cats belong to the Harb family, who fled their home in a residential tower in the relatively affluent area of al-Zahra in central Gaza to escape from Israeli air strikes that flattened the building and much of their old neighbourhood.

Palestinian officials said 10,569 people had been killed as of Wednesday, 40 per cent of them children. Israel says 33 of its soldiers have been killed.
