Description

A once vibrant neighborhood in Sheikh Radwan, Gaza, has been reduced to rubble, leaving displaced families to live beside contaminated water. Stagnant ponds, filled with raw sewage after destroyed pumps, pose serious health risks, especially to children. The area faces rising water levels, foul odors, and increased danger from insects and disease, while families struggle to rebuild their lives amid ongoing destruction. This situation highlights the urgent need for aid and protection for those affected. Al Jazeera’s Ibrahim Al Khalil reports.
