A Mother’s Struggle: Um Yazan’s Fight Against Gaza’s Harsh Winter

A Rough Winter in Gaza: Um Yazan's Story

Um Yazan's Gaza home floods whenever it rains. Buckets in every room are unable to hold the water that seeps through the roof, making daily life hard. Simple tasks like washing, cooking, and drying clothes have become an ongoing battle for her and her small children. Her husband is sick and unemployed, and he is unable to maintain the family. With four children, they face the bitter weather without proper heating or dry clothing. The damp and uncomfortable weather frequently leave the children ill, confining them to their frigid home.
