Gaza’s War Leaves Palestinians Without Homes, Livelihoods or the Ability to Work

Palestinians in the Gaza Strip face a daily struggle as Israel’s war devastates their homes and livelihoods, leaving them to seek shelter among tents and rubble.

The destruction has stripped people of both a place to live and the means to support themselves. Moving between makeshift shelters and damaged neighbourhoods, they face uncertainty over how to meet their everyday needs.

For thousands who have suffered injuries, the hardship extends beyond displacement. Physical impairments have left them unable to work, compounding the loss of income caused by the war.

The overlapping burdens of homelessness, unemployment and serious injury have transformed daily life across the territory. For those affected, finding shelter and securing a livelihood are inseparable from the struggle to live with the war’s lasting physical consequences.
