Deir el-Balah, Gaza Strip Yehad al-Esar left the tent in a new and tiring journey in a new and tiring journey to get food in the morning in the morning.

His appointment on Wednesday: Gaza Humanitarian Fund (GHF) supported by the United States, the Point of Assistance to Rafah in the southern Gaza.

Jehad, first of all, went to the pregnant wife and two hungry daughter “heavy” 10 km (6.2 miles) to manage.

The hunger, which spread in Gaza, a direct result of a long-term blockade in Israel, said the GHF website was just the hope.

This is in spite of the disputes that cover the organization Sunday resignedGHF said he could not call “humanitarian principles of mankind, neutrality, impartiality and independence.”

The lack of experience in dealing with the distribution of GHF is highlighted when the lack of experience is at least three Palestinians were killed in chaos involving the relief effort.

But people in Gaza are hungry and hopeless. Jehad is among them.

After 90 minutes of walking, 31 year old, before opening suddenly, the distributor’s center reached the iron doors.

“Thousands ruled thousands of people. There was no order,” he said. “People ran to the yard where the help boxes were harvested and transferred to the inner salon.”

“This chaos was a real struggle. Men, women, children, they all stick to each other, do not have any system – there are no hunger or disorders.”

They caught everything they could carry people inside the hall. “Everyone who could raise two boxes took them. Sugar and food oil were priorities. They caught and fled.”

“There was no trail of humanity in what happened.” “I was roughly crushed by the crowd.”

Just in a short distance, the armed foreign forces were watching without interference. Jehad said he approached one of them and against him.

“I told them:” I don’t help – it’s superior to a scarcity. You have to leave. You don’t need it here. “”

Jehad managed to buy only a few articles: tuna boxes, a small bag of sugar, some pasta and biscuit package scattered. He took them to his shoulder and took them to a plastic bag and traveled a long time.

“I was a little left. I was afraid to stay longer and stamped – but I had to bring something. I need to eat. I have no choice.”

When he returned to the tent, his daughter greeted him with joy – even for the little ones he brought.

“My wife and I divide the food we brought home to eat their children within a few days. The children often give food. This is fully responsible for feeding.”

Apokalyptic

Awad Abu Khalil was also among the desperate crowd on Wednesday. 23-year-olds described the crowd, if he was “apocalyptic”.

“Everyone missed. It was chaos. The help was gathered and everyone attacked them only, he seized.”

ADDAD said he heard gunshots in the distance, he probably targeted the young people trying to cross the recommended routes.

Expressed deep frustration with staff. “The American staff distributes assistance to the tables, and it is not a madness to hand over shares.”

Images that appeared on Tuesdays and Wednesday, the GHF broke out the international criticism, and the representatives of several countries have violated the United Nations and international humanitarian organizations to prevent the help of Gaza.

In early March, Israel stopped the entrance to Gaza, ceasefire continued. This is one-sidedly violated the ceasefire and doubled in Gaza war, and the number of official deaths exceeds more than 54,000 Palestinians.

“We received assistance from international organizations and the UN,” he said. “It was delivered in an organized way in the name – no chaos, no humiliation.”

Humiliation

Acad and Jehad were able to return home with some food.

Jehad, his wife and his mother, and then soak bread, and then he has become a hammer, he said. His wife used sugar to make a simple pudding for children. According to him, he will return on Thursday.

Even this is better than it is for most people in Gaza.

35-year-old children, while their children were hungry, while the khan was in the industry Khan Yonis’deki khan Yonis’deki khan Yonis’deki khan Yonis’deki’di’noked camp, so he decided to go to Rafay.

“I fought with my husband who refused to fear the army. I will go to myself,” Walaa Al said.

He entrusted his children to his sister and joined the crowd going towards the earth.

“My children were on the eve of hunger. No milk, no food, and not a baby formula. I wandered the day and night, and I was to ask the neighbor for crumbs.” “So I went no matter what my husband thinks.”

But over time, Walaa made it to Rafah, it was too late.

“People were fighting how little they were. Some were torn parcels,” he said.

Walaa left the distribution space empty-handed. When he returned, he saw a bag from a man’s torn shutdown.

“I took it and I wanted to be I could be.” “He shouted:” I came to the northern one to get it in the northern (from Gaza) Beit Lahiya from Beit Lahiya. I have 9 kids all the hungry. Sorry, my sister, I can’t give him ‘and he went.

“I realized, but his words broke me. I cried for what we were.”

Walaa described the experience as deep humiliating. Was filled with shame and humiliation.

“Every time I covered my face with my scarf. I did not want me to accept that no one will take a food.”

Despite his sorrow, Walaa says it will do it again if necessary.

“Your children are not dignified when you cry hunger. We will not forgive those who allow us to reach this point.”
