Testimony from Gaza: ‘We are not numbers, we are human beings’

The World Health Organization warned on 23 July of widespread starvation in Gaza, saying food deliveries into the war-ravaged Palestinian territory were “far below what is needed for the survival of the population”. France 24 spoke to Bahaa Zaqout, a Gaza resident and aid worker with the Palestinian Agricultural Development Association (PARC). “Imagine your children asking you for the least, and all you can give them are promises… This keeps every father in Gaza awake,” he says.
