RAFAH, GAZA, PALESTINE - DECEMBER 26: ​​​​​​​"I hope to wake up from such a nightmare," by these words, the fiftieth Palestinian Abo Ibrahim started his talk with Anadolu reporter, as he currently lives in a rickety tent in Rafah city, in the southern Gaza Strip.Abo Ibrahim moved several times during the past 80 days of the Israeli deadly onslaught against Gaza before sheltering his family in a tent in Rafah city.Abo Ibrahim, who preferred not to mention his name and to use his nickname instead, left his home in Abasan al-Kabira town, eastern Khan Younis city, under the Israeli heavy and devastating bombardment on his area.His family depends on wood and paper to have a fire to cook food. "Look at my hands and my face; they are black from the fire and its smoke; we can't find anything to cook except for wood pieces, nylons, and paper sheets, which pollute my hand and face and burn my eyes," he said.In another place not far from the tent of Abo Ibrahim, Ahlam Shallah and her children live in a state of homelessness after she was forced to leave her shelter in the Nuseirat refugee camp, central the Gaza Strip."I am from Gaza City, but at the start of the war, I fled to the Nuseirat camp, and yesterday, the Israeli army ordered us to leave the camp towards Deir al-Balah or Rafah," Ahlam said."We decided to go to the far south of the Strip, but we didn't find a shelter; we are here without food, water, and even blankets," she added.Another Palestinian also described the same living conditions in Rafah amid a lack of food and shelter."I looked for a tent to shelter my children but didn't find one; my child suffers a heart illness and can't bear such conditions," Hind Abdelnabi said.(Footage by Doaa Albaz/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
