Stringer Dispatch: Displaced Gazans experience worst Ramadan yet in Rafah city

Global Stringer

Relief is not in sight for millions of starving and displaced people in Gaza who began Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting, on March 11. As the Israel-Hamas conflict rages on and bloodshed continues, social order is collapsing in Gaza as desperate Palestinians struggle to make a living.

CGTN Stringer hit the streets of Rafah during Ramadan. A refugee living in a tent lamented that she had never experienced a worse Ramadan in her life. She prepared nothing for Ramadan this year and just waited for the suffering that's coming to her. Another refugee said he could not buy even a box of sweets or a jar of jam because of the soaring prices. He woke up from sleep, hearing bombing sounds one day, then was displaced to Rafah.
