Three years of war on the Gaza Strip left behind not only the ruins of homes and installations, but also a profound social wound to the heart of the Palestinian family, after tens of thousands of fathers, mothers, children and their dependants had lost their lives, so that the loss could turn from a passing event to a daily reality that burdened an entire society.
In Gaza, one in four households is now run by a single woman, as the husbands died, disappeared or detained by Israel. This is twice as many as three years ago, before the Israeli war in the Gaza Strip. According to these figures revealed by the United Nations in early September, more than 86,000 women find themselves alone to support themselves and raise their children. Some camps for internally displaced persons in Gaza are reserved for widows.
