KHAN YUNIS, Gaza Strip — Umm Rashed al-Najjar sits in the shadow of a tent she erected next to her house that was flattened along with dozens of similar homes in the destroyed town of Khuza’a, east of Khan Yunis.
Nearby are hundreds of containers donated as temporary housing units for displaced families. Najjar and the families whose homes were destroyed were shocked at the sight of these containers, which they fear might become a long-term solution to their housing issues.
