Interviews:

1) Khamis Radwan
00:28 - 00:41
Thanks to God, we welcome Ramadan this year without parents or relatives or my family, we spend these days without food or drinks, there is scarcity in food and water.

00:43 - 00:53
There is no necessities of life, we spend the days of Ramadan just like normal days, because we don't have anything and everything is expensive.

00:55 - 1:08
In our life we are struggling in everything, even in the city that you live in there are difficulties, and everything is different now.

1:09 - 1:28
There is scarcity in food and water. I used to weight 104 kg , but now I'm 75 kg, There is no money, no work, it's really difficult. I am one of a million people in Rafah who are struggling right now.

2) Ayman Ghalib
2:00 - 2:15
This time Ramadan is different from the last Ramadan. The last Ramadan there was no war, but this year we're in war. Also the prices are very high. A lot of goods are missing here in palestinian stores.

2:18 - 2:28
The last Ramadan eventing was available but this year it is so hard to find what you need.

2:29 - 2:43
I want to tell you something, people are so sad, so they welcomed it (Ramadan) with pain, because of the war and the people who died, and the destruction of buildings and the needs.

2:44 - 3:03
Men can't provide food for their children. Ramadan is a spiritual month. We used to get ready for two or three months before Ramadan to welcome it, but this year is really different,
