Displaced Gazans find shelter in Yasser Arafat’s dilapidated villa

GAZA CITY: The Gazan residence of the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat stands in ruins, like most other buildings in the devastated territory, but the remains of the once-lavish villa now also host several displaced families. AFPTV footage shows the house, converted into a museum after the Palestinian leader’s death in 2004 and bearing murals in his honor, surrounded by rubble. Located in the Rimal neighborhood in Gaza City, the house was heavily damaged by Israeli strikes during the two years of war that followed Hamas’s unprecedented attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.
