What’s it like to live in #Gaza right now?

Nour Alsaqqa, MSF Communications Officer, shows us the current living conditions where families are sheltering in makeshift tents with little access to necessities.

This is the reality for hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza today.

According to the Global Shelter Cluster, over 282,000 homes in #Gaza have been damaged or destroyed, leaving people without shelter.

Amid the destruction and rubble, many families are living in tents as winter approaches.

UNRWA and partners continue to assist displaced families.

Another pencil crayon study. This was quite tricky and it’s not really finished, but I’m really enjoying using real pencils.

Eight child abusers were jailed today.
8 child sexual predators who had been operating in areas such as Gravesend, Gillingham, Swanley, & Margate jailed for a combined 100 years.
This managed not to be the top story on repeat for BBC, itv or sky News.

I wonder why.
