Gaza Strip, Palestinian Territories: One year after Israel unleashed a deadly massacre in Gaza, the Palestinian territory is unrecognisable and its residents are exhausted by displacement and shortages, with no end in sight.
"It felt like the first day of the war all over again", said Khaled al-Hawajri, 46, as the Israeli forces bombarded his Gaza neighbourhood on Monday, even as Israel marked the anniversary of Hamas attack.
"Last night we were terrorised by the bombardments from quadcopters and tank shells," said Hawajri, who has been displaced 10 times with his family of seven in the past year.
"We have endured a whole year in the north under bombardment, terror, and fear in the hearts of my children," he said, adding he had been staying in Gaza's devastated north because "there is no safe place in the entire Strip".
On Monday, Gaza City was barely recognisable, ravaged by relentless air strikes and fighting.
