Sukars live exposed to elements in house shelled in Protective Edge, November 2014

Operation
Protective Edge ended in late August 2014, but most residents of the
Gaza Strip are still suffering its consequences. The video shows the
apartment of the Sukar family in a-Shuja’iyeh neighborhood in Gaza City,
which was heavily shelled in the operation. The parents and their five
children now live in an apartment that does not provide them shelter
from the cold and rain: “This apartment had been hit by shells and parts
of it were destroyed. Whenever it rains, the house is flooded. The
children get sick with colds. I hope we’ll be able to go back to our
apartment, with all our belongings and furniture, especially the washing
machine… This war set us forty years back…"
