Gaza family's battle for survival as hunger and heat deepen despair
After they were forcibly displaced multiple times during Israel's war on Gaza, the Sobh family has taken refuge in a coastal camp west of Gaza City. Street vendor Fadi Sobh, 30, describes his tent as 'unbearably hot during summer'. His 29-year-old wife, Abeer, collects seawater because clean water is in short supply. The children bathe in turns, standing in a metal basin as their mother pours saltwater over them. Nine-month-old Hala cries when the salt irritates her eyes, while her siblings bear the discomfort without complaint. Abeer feeds Hala water from a baby bottle. On good days, she has lentils to grind into powder and mix with the water. 'One day feels like one hundred days, because of the summer heat, hunger and the distress,' she says. Fadi travels to a nearby soup kitchen, sometimes with one of his children. 'But food is rarely available there,' he said. The kitchen operates roughly once a week, never meeting demand. Often, he waits an entire day only to return home with nothing 'and the kids sleep hungry, without eating'. Abeer sometimes goes to aid trucks near the Zikim crossing alone or with Youssef, one of her children. The crowds are mostly men – stronger and faster than she is. 'Sometimes I manage to get food, and in many cases, I return empty-handed,' she said. When unsuccessful, she begs those who secured supplies. 'You survived death thanks to God, please give me anything,' she pleads. Many respond kindly, offering her a small bag of flour to bake for the children. During the hottest hours of the day, the six children stay in or near the tent. Their parents encourage them to sleep through the heat, preventing them from using energy and becoming hungry and thirsty. As temperatures drop, the children go outside. Some days, Abeer sends them to ask the neighbours for food. Other times, they search through Gaza's ruined streets, sifting through rubble and rubbish for anything to fuel their makeshift stove. After spending the day seeking life's essentials – food, water, and cooking fuel – the family occasionally gathers enough for Abeer to prepare a meal, usually a thin lentil soup. More often, they have nothing and go to bed hungry. Abeer says she is growing weaker, frequently feeling dizzy while searching for food. 'I am tired. I am no longer able,' she said. 'If the war goes on, I am thinking of taking my life. I no longer have any strength or power.'
