‘A slow genocide accelerated’: How Gaza’s winter ‘crisis’ is manufactured by Israel

Days ago, baby Ehab Mohammad Hamad was found by his mother, lifeless with blue lips, fingers and toes.

The six-month year old died of exposure after his family’s tent was flooded.

“No matter how hard we tried to keep the child warm and wrap him in blankets, it was all in vain,” the child’s grandmother said in a video posted by the Palestinian-led mutual aid group, the Sameer Project.

The group provided the family with a dome tent. But Hala Sabbah, who works with the organisation, said that the story fell on deaf ears.

“I was really frustrated that it wasn’t talked about,” Sabbah told MEE.
