Palestinian widows work on knitting wool handicrafts inside a tent at the Al-Baraka camp for orphans in the Mawasi area of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip on May 11, 2026, in an effort to secure an income to support their children after their husbands were killed during the war. Women in Gaza increasingly rely on simple handicrafts to cope with harsh living conditions faced by displaced families amid worsening humanitarian conditions, rising poverty and unemployment rates, and continued shortages of basic needs and services. 01.
