In a video around the internet, a little Palestinian in the Gaza Strip seems to eat sand. Not by innocence or play, but out of despair. There is no food. There is no flour. There is nothing. “We eat sand, because we don’t have bread,” it shocks. The siege, constant bombings and exclusions have turned Gaza into a vast grave of hope. The ovens sell the minimum, remaining bread at high prices and in very small quantities. Supermarkets are empty and kids have nothing to eat. International organizations warn of upcoming famine, but help is not enough. The voices of the trapped are drowning under the debris and silence of the international community. The child eating sand is not an exception. It is a symbol of a tragedy that continues. And every day that passes, the sand replaces bread in more baby mouths.
