100 days of war in Gaza: Besieged Palestinians feel isolated, abandoned and afraid

The past 100 days have left thousands of Palestinians dead, homeless and starving as Israel continues its bombing campaign of the besieged enclave. 

Middle East Eye journalist Maha Husseini spoke to Palestinians in Gaza who feel isolated, abandoned and hungry.

Yara Waheidi fled her home from the Central Gaza Strip. She has been displaced multiple times since, and remains in a state of constant limbo.  

"It was still autumn, and in Gaza we start wearing thick and heavy clothes by mid-December," Waheidi told MEE.

"I thought we wouldn't need them because the war wouldn't last until the end of October."

Waheidi said that she is now considering fleeing again as Israel ramps up its air strikes and ground offensive in neighbourhoods adjacent to where she's currently found shelter.

"I cannot believe that after 100 days we're still talking about seeking shelter, where to go, and what place is safe."
