Part 2/5:
In Khan Younis, an overwhelming crowd of children surrounds a soup kitchen, desperate for something to eat. The scene is chaotic: pots clang and cries fill the air. One girl, overpowered by the crush of bodies, gasps, "I can’t breathe," as she struggles to escape being wedged against a metal barrier. Around her, others cry in agony, swamped by a sea of human misery.
As a United Nations assessment disclosed in October indicates, approximately 1.8 million people in Gaza are suffering from "extremely critical levels of hunger." Amid this chaos, we follow the story of Sama, a young girl who returns to her tent with a scant supply of rice—this will be all her family has to eat that day.
