Gaza Nearly a Year After the War-Ending Deal: Residents Work to Rebuild
Nearly a year after Israel and Hamas agreed to end the war in Gaza, a New York Times photographer documents how residents are coping and trying to rebuild their lives.
Almost a year has passed since Israel and Hamas agreed to bring the war in Gaza to an end. How people in the territory are living now is documented by Saher Alghorra, a photographer working for The New York Times.
His video report focuses on residents who are adapting to life after the fighting. It shows how Gazans are dealing with the aftermath and working to put their lives back together.
About the report
The piece is a video report rather than a broad analytical overview. Its focus is the personal experience of the residents and their efforts to return to a daily routine nearly a year after the agreement to end the war.
The description of the video does not name specific neighborhoods, towns or individuals, so further detail about the places and people shown is available only in the footage itself.
The agreement between Israel and Hamas that halted the fighting is the backdrop to the report. It allows viewers to see Gaza not as a battlefield but as a place where people are trying to recover and build a new everyday life.
