‘I don’t know when I will go back to my home,’ says displaced Gaza teacher

Tarek al-Farra, a teacher in Gaza who has been displaced for more than a year, says daily life in the enclave is dominated by uncertainty. “I don’t know how long I will be here, displaced,” he told Al Jazeera from Khan Younis in southern Gaza. “I don’t know when I will go back to my home. Although my home is destroyed, I would rather build a tent on the rubble of my home rather than be displaced in a place I don’t belong [in].” Al-Farra said, despite the dire conditions in Gaza – and serious challenges in finding food and other supplies – he had decided against trying to get aid from the US-Israeli-backed group that distributed limited aid this week in Rafah. “It was like a suicide mission, to walk all this distance just to get a coupon. I don’t know if it will be enough for me and my family,” he said of what was being distributed. “I didn’t receive any aid, I didn’t receive any humanitarian supplies for more than 70 days.” Subscribe to our channel: http://bit.ly/AJSubscribe Follow us on X: https://twitter.com/AJEnglish Find us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aljazeera Check our website: http://www.aljazeera.com/ Check out our Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/aljazeeraenglish/ Download AJE Mobile App: https://aje.io/AJEMobile #Palestine #Gaza #Israel #IsraelGazaWar #GazaWar #GazaForcedEvacuations #IsraelAttacksGaza #GazaDisplacement #KhanYounis #GazaAidCrisis #GazaHungerCrisis #AlJazeeraEnglish
