STORYLINE
Palestinians welcomed the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan under the shadow of economic difficulties caused by the Israeli blockade and the coronavirus pandemic.
The unemployment rate in the Gaza Strip, with a population of nearly 2.1 million, has almost reached 50% due to the land, sea and air blockade imposed by Israel for 15 years, according to UN data.
The recent coronavirus outbreak has also caused to deteriorate the economic situation in the territory.
More than half of the population in the Gaza Strip currently lives below the poverty line.
Qatayef is an Arab dessert commonly served during the month of Ramadan, a sort of sweet dumpling filled with cream or nuts. It can be described as a folded pancake.
