Children Return to Makeshift Schools Amid Hardship Following Gaza Ceasefire

Thousands of Palestinian children are returning to makeshift classrooms after years without formal education following the October ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.UNICEF reports that over 97% of schools in Gaza were damaged, forcing institutions like the Lulwa Abdel Wahab al-Qatami School to operate with limited supplies and traumatized students.The educational restart comes as elderly residents like Saleh Al-Eid remain displaced in harsh coastal conditions, drawing parallels to the historical 1948 Nakba.
