In a scene that encapsulates the tragedy of an entire people, this child in Gazacarries a sack of flour larger than his small frame, weighed down by dust, exhaustion, and deprivation.
This boy has never known the warmth of a classroom or the joy of play—he found himself in a line for aid, struggling against hunger and indignity to bring home a day’s worth of food.
His flour-covered face reflects a pale, faded reality where childhood dreams crumble under the weight of siege and famine.
Gaza, 2025... where flour is a treasure, and childhood is a burden.
