We used to go to this place on Thursday to disconnect from the blockade and shop for the weekend. We would walk around thinking about what meal we should cook on Friday and the snacks for a movie night. It used to bring a sense of fake normality amid the chaos of the occupation.
The once-vibrant heart of Gaza city lies in ruins, its central shopping center Carefor reduced to ashes by the Israeli enmities of life. The city grieves for its lost landmark and the lives it once sheltered.
