((ANMOD: Reports from Israel suggest the government is planning to occupy large parts of Gaza for the long-term, and move thousands of Gazans to some specific zones. It has not allowed supplies into the territory since March, saying that is the only way to stop militant group Hamas taking them. International humanitarian organisations say the lack of food and medical supplies is creating a crisis. Israeli strikes aimed at trying to eradicate Hamas continue to kill Gazans nearly every day. DW’s Tania Krämer reports.))

This is one of the soup kitchens in Gaza City. It is run by Atfaluna, a group that works with the Deaf and hard of hearing.  
++Atmosphere, sign language++
Suha Geneina is one of the cooks. She is preparing meals for people in the neighbourhood who depend on her.
Altogether they make 2,500 meals a day - but they’re limited to the basics - lentils, pasta, rice or mujaddara, a Palestinian dish that combines it all.  Now even these staples are running out since Israel stopped all aid from entering Gaza.

“Today, there are few ingredients and no spices. What will we do? It's possible that within two days we will have to stop and close down. What will we do? It is very important that there is someone to help us. What will we do? What is the solution?” 
They provided food to anyone in the neighourhood who needed it. Fadi Abed runs the centre from a makeshift office. He says Deaf and hard of hearing people in Gaza are among the most vulnerable. But things are desperate for everyone.

“Unfortunately, the situation here is similar for kitchens across the Gaza Strip, providing hot meals to families amid the lack of raw materials and basic goods. Due to the closure of the crossings, it is likely that Atafluna's kitchen will cease operations in the coming two, three days”.

And no one else can step in. Israel is now planning to expand its military offensive, and force Gaza's population from the north to the south of the territory.

“ We are steadfast and we won't be displaced again. If we die, it will be in our homes this time. We won't accept being displaced and going south.”

“We adults may be able to bear this reality, but what fault do children, women and the elderly have? What fault do diabetics and cancer patients have so that this should happen to them? The crisis is between them and Hamas. What fault do ordinary citizens, the people, the children of Gaza and the sick have?

A painting workshop… Atfaluna runs it to help people cope with what’s going on. There’s not much, but it’s better than nothing.

Before the war Atfaluna ran a kindergarten, school, sign language classes and vocational training programs. The main center has been destroyed in the war.
Iman Raqiq was a kindergarten teacher. Working here gives her a few hours to distract herself from the harsh reality of life in Gaza.

“Before, I was very afraid for my son and would look for him all the time. I was always confused, scared, and panicked. Now, after working here, there are more ideas and activity, and the confusion and fear have decreased a bit. I communicate with people, draw, and try to forget about the war.”

19 months of war - with no end in sight. And everyone here is extremely worried about  what may come next.

((Anchor: ABMOD: Shortly after our cameraman filmed at the kitchen a strike hit a car nearby. Atfaluna said in a statement that five of its kitchen staff were injured.))
