Israel’s attacks on Gaza have destroyed more than half of the strip’s farmland. Fields and agricultural facilities have been devastated by air strikes and bulldozers, wiping out essential food sources. Despite this, some farmers are fighting to keep their crops alive, restoring damaged plant nurseries and replanting seedlings.

Civilians support these efforts, determined to bring life back to Gaza. An elderly farmer mentioned that he started replanting his land in January, hoping it will turn green again. Another farmer highlighted the severe food shortages and the struggle to grow vegetables due to ongoing Israeli attacks. Palestinian journalist Ibrahim Al Khalili reports from Northern Gaza.
