Above the tents of a displacement camp in al-Mawasi, near Khan Yunis, homemade wind turbines spin in the sea breeze, providing a lifeline to families left without electricity . The devices were built by 60-year-old Kamal Al-Dabary , a former engineering student, using scooter motors, discarded water tanks and electrical components salvaged from destroyed homes. The energy generated is stored in batteries. With solar panels now costing nearly $5,000 and much of Gaza's electricity infrastructure destroyed, his invention offers an affordable alternative . The turbines produce just enough power to charge phones and run lights, fans and electric razors. But for displaced residents, even this limited supply makes a difference .
