A Gaza family uprooted by war and grieving their losses shares a somber Ramadan meal in a tent
It was a somber scene as Randa Baker and her family sat on the ground in their tent in southern Gaza at sunset Monday for their meal breaking their first day of fasting in the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Three of her children were largely silent as Randa set down a platter of rice and potatoes and bowls of peas, a meal pieced together from charity and humanitarian aid. Randa’s 12-year-old son, Amir, was too ill to join them; he had a stroke before the war and is incapacitated.
