As Ramadan begins, Gazans are observing iftar among the ruins of their homes destroyed by Israeli attacks. In Zahra, southwest Gaza, Asaad Dukhan and his family broke their fast in front of their demolished house, struggling to access food and water.

Dukhan described the dire conditions, walking long distances to find basic supplies as prices soar. He expressed hope for an end to the war. Meanwhile, Israel has blocked humanitarian aid, citing the expiration of a ceasefire agreement and Hamas’ rejection of a US-backed truce extension.
