In the darkness of July 29th, Israeli military strikes fell upon Shati refugee camp in Gaza City — one of the oldest and most densely inhabited camps in the territory, born of displacement in 1948. Buildings caught fire, and families who had already rebuilt lives from an earlier uprooting were forced once again into the night. The immediate wound is measured in dozens of households without shelter, but the deeper wound belongs to a longer human story of people for whom there is no other address to return to.
