00:00Large groups of Palestinians gathered for hours in a playground in central Gaza, eagerly awaiting food distributed by a charity kitchen on Friday.
00:09Many children stood in front of sizable pots as charity workers served rice, the only meal available that day to those anxiously anticipating their portions.
00:19We lack flour, gas and wood and everything is very expensive. With no money to spare, my husband is unemployed at home and my children and I depend on charity kitchen for our meals.
00:32Some individuals were seen filling plastic bags with cooked rice as blockades have been enforced, restricting food, fuel and humanitarian aid from entering the area, resulting in severe shortages for civilians.
00:45There is no food or drink to be found. The crossings are closed and obtaining vegetables has become very difficult. We have not had any fresh vegetables in a year and a half.
00:57My children and I escaped death when we left Al-Mugraqa. There is nothing left. I am entirely dependent on charity kitchens for food. If they close their doors, my children and I will starve as I have no income.
01:09Ten Palestinians detained by Israeli troops in Gaza were released on Thursday. However, Israel has intensified its military action in Gaza, aiming to pressure Hamas into releasing hostages, 59 of whom remained captive, with over half of them reported to be dead.
