A loaf of bread is a dangerous mission, its price is life in Gaza

GAZA – In the early hours of the morning, Gazans begin to line up in front of the bakeries in the hope of obtaining whatever bread they can to alleviate the hunger of their children, who are besieged by the continuous and indiscriminate Israeli air strikes, which do not differentiate between children, women, and the elderly.اضافة اعلان

"Getting bread for my children is a dangerous task amidst the continuous Israeli aggression, and it may require me to stand in a long queue for hours just to return to my children with a few loaves of bread in case the bakery is not bombed,” Abu Mohammed, the head of a family from Khan Younis, told Al-Mamlaka.



"The suffering also includes obtaining some food for my family and children in light of the depletion of household fuel (gas) for cooking, and many food items are beginning to disappear."

The Israeli planes targeted the bakery of the Maghazi refugee camp in the middle of the Gaza Strip; the only bakery that provides bread to tens of thousands of camp residents and displaced people.



Eyewitnesses said that the missiles completely destroyed the bakery, leaving a large crater in its place.

There are fears of the Israeli occupation targeting the bakeries with air strikes, turning the Israeli war in Gaza into a war on Palestinian life in all its forms.

The owner of one of the bakeries in central Gaza says that the demand exceeds the capacity of the working bakeries, given the limited flour and the power outages. He pointed out that they work without knowing if the next moment will be the time for an Israeli strike to turn the bakery into an incinerator.
