Ibrahim, 48, father of four: “My children have no future.”

"I go through some very hard moments as a father," Ibrahim says about his children. "One that left a mark on me was when I was hugging them during shelling, not knowing if we would come out alive. I've been facing a daily dilemma: whether to send one of the children to get water while I'm trying to get food." 

"I'm an educated man, and what's most painful is that I now know for sure that my children have no future," Ibrahim says. 

Ibrahim is one of the Gaza residents profiled by Haaretz on July 21. They conducted all their interviews by phone and video call.
