Pregnant Woman Lives in Tent on Gaza Ruins After October 2025 Ceasefire
Alaa Hessi, a pregnant woman in Gaza, lives in a tent pitched on the ruins of her destroyed home near a demarcation boundary — the yellow line — established by an Israeli-Palestinian ceasefire agreement in October 2025. An Israeli airstrike destroyed her home and killed all three of her children. The Guardian's video documents her daily life under continued drone surveillance amid the destruction of her neighborhood, with Hessi still unable to return to permanent shelter in the post-ceasefire period.
