In the Gaza Strip, aid organizations warn the amount of food and other basic goods Israel has allowed to enter the Palestinian territory continues to fall far short of the 600 truckloads per day promised under Israel’s ceasefire agreement. The U.N. says the daily number of trucks allowed into Gaza has never passed 200 on any single day in October. Meanwhile, thousands of Palestinians are returning to neighborhoods that Israel forced them to evacuate, only to find their homes in rubble. According to the U.N. migration agency, an estimated 90% of all buildings in Gaza are destroyed or damaged. This is Amal Taleb Alyan, a Palestinian from the al-Shati refugee camp whose home was flattened by Israeli strikes.

Amal Taleb Alyan: “We took the house keys. Here they are, the house keys. We took them so we would come back and find the house. But when the truce happened, we returned, and we didn’t find the house. We didn’t even find the door. … Every day when I come here, I feel like my soul leaves me. This is where I used to go, where I used to walk. This is my place, my home, my house. Here I built my life. Here I built dreams for me and the children. It’s very hard to lose your home.”
