GAZA CITY — Liala Kloob, her unemployed husband and their six children sleep on cots in the Abu Assi School in a Gaza Strip refugee camp.
A year ago, her husband worked as a tailor and they owned a house. But Israeli airstrikes destroyed their home and her husband's storefront during the 51-day war last summer with Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that rules Gaza.
"You cannot imagine life in a school with about a 100 other families," said Kloob, who depends on United Nations aid to survive. "The only available solution for my family is staying at the school. We have to stand in a line and wait our turn to get food, water or even to go to the bathroom."
Eight months after the war's end, Kloob is among 100,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip who are still homeless, the Association of International Development Agencies (AIDA) said in a report this month.
