APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Khan Younis - 28 April 2021. Palestinian farmers collect watermelon during a harvest season amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic in Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip

01.SOUNDBITE (Arabic) Yasser Al-Astal

STORYLINE

watermelon is a summertime fruit, Native to Africa, melons need warm temperatures (up to 80°F during the day) and a long growing season. Watermelon is succulent fruit and vinelike plant of the gourd family native to tropical Africa and cultivated around the world. The fruit contains vitamin A and some vitamin C and is usually eaten raw. The rind is sometimes preserved as a pickle.

Gaza’s 2-million population remains under “remote control” occupation and a strict siege, which has destroyed the local economy, strangled Palestinian livelihoods, plunged them into unprecedented rates of unemployment and poverty, and cut off from the rest of the occupied Palestinian territories and the wider world.
