Hajj Abdullah Ayoub, 77, spent his life in classrooms, teaching generations of students in Gaza and in schools across several countries. Now he stands in line at a takiya, a charity kitchen, in the Gaza Strip, waiting for a plate of food like hundreds of others around him. The genocide has taken everything he owned. He lives with his wife, his daughter and his daughter-in-law, both of whom were widowed when the Israeli occupation killed their husbands, his son and son-in-law, during the war. Kitchens like the one he queues at have become the last source of food for hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza, yet the Israeli occupation has kept aid far below the levels agreed under the ceasefire. Gaza’s Government Media Office said in April that only 37 percent of the trucks stipulated in the deal had entered over six months, and by September community kitchens were producing less than half the meals they once did. Many now cook only once or twice a week, serving lentils, pasta or beans. The man who once fed young minds with knowledge now waits for a meal to fill his own stomach.
