Mother of four speaks of risking her life by lining up for aid to feed her family

Thousands of Palestinians in Gaza take a dangerous, miles-long journey every day to attempt to get food. One such person is Hind al-Nawajha, a mother of four whom Reuters spoke to on Thursday.

"You either come back carrying (food) for your children and they will be happy, or you come back in a shroud, or you go back upset (without food) and your children will cry," said Nawajha, 38, a resident of Beit Lahiya, in northern Gaza.

"This is life, we are being slaughtered, we can't do it anymore."
