Gaza school children return to class after 2 years of war

In Gaza’s Nuseirat camp, a reopened UNRWA school offers hope amid crisis. Parents rush to register children despite overcrowding and limited space.

UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestinians, has resumed its education program. Lucky students return after two years of disrupted education to classrooms lacking basic furniture.

However, as many school buildings are being used to shelter displaced families, not all students can find a place in a classroom.

UNICEF warns that only 1 in 6 children are learning again, but each child back in school marks a step toward peace.
