Gaza City, Gaza Strip – At night, as temperatures drop inside their makeshift shelter in Gaza City, Amira Saad struggles to keep her four-month-old baby, Mohammed, warm. The baby mostly only has thin summer clothes. Unable to afford winter clothing, 27-year-old Amira has borrowed a warm garment from a neighbour, but remains worried about the cold during the night. She lives with 18 family members, including nine children, under a tarp offering little protection from the elements. Finding enough warm clothes and blankets for everyone has become increasingly difficult. The family was displaced from Gaza City’s Shujayea neighbourhood earlier in Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, and now lives in a makeshift camp west of the city.
