Gaza’s economy has plummeted by 87 percent in two years, deepening poverty and leaving thousands without income or resources.

Gaza City- Crammed in a tiny tent at a United Nations-run school in central Gaza City, Alaa Alzanin, along with his wife, five children, his 71-year-old mother and younger sister, are taking shelter after they lost their home in Beit Hanoon during Israel’s war. They have been displaced eight times, and this tent is where they now protect themselves from the rain and winter cold.
Alzanin, 41, cannot sustain his family because he is unemployed. He is a day labourer, but he is out of work like hundreds of thousands of people across the Gaza Strip.
