An estimated 1.4 million people, around two thirds of Gaza's population, live in some form of tent or temporary structure. Last weekend’s heavy rain flooded tens of thousands of these makeshift homes, leaving some people without any shelter at all. As winter approaches, two families share their experiences of living in tents, the challenge of keeping warm and finding enough food. We also bring together three people to give us an insight into their daily lives in the territory. They include Fedaa, whose three-year-old daughter has grown up during the conflict. “I try just to draw her a world, or a universe, that is different to the one in which she lives,” Fedaa tells us.
