Gaza, the world and us

Since October 8, 2023, we have been witnessing the deadliest and most brutal war ever documented and broadcast live. In 15 weeks, more than 30,000 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli army (60% of them children and women), and more than 80% of the population of 2.2 million Gazans, besieged on 360 km2 and already victims of 4 wars and a long blockade (since 2007), have been displaced and crammed into the southern part of the devastated territory[1].

The figures, reports, videos and testimonies published and regularly updated by the various UN agencies, humanitarian and human rights organizations, as well as by the brave Palestinian journalists and photographers on the ground, show us the suffering, the famine, the destruction of homes and infrastructure, the cuts in water, fuel and electricity, the inhuman sanitary conditions and the ordeal of the sick, the wounded, the amputees, treated with makeshift means and operated on without anesthesia.
