Thousands of orphaned children in Gaza are facing a sorrowful Eid amid the ongoing conflict, with many grieving lost parents and enduring dire living conditions.

Ahmed Khalil, a 10-year-old boy, recounts how Israeli soldiers destroyed his home, killed his family and left him and his sister starving in a shelter.

Ahmed, who was shot in the shoulder, now spends his days searching for food and water instead of celebrating Eid as he once did.
