00:00In Kanjoonis, Palestine, hundreds of people are forced to scavenge through trash for plastic and paper to cook and keep warm during the severe cold wave of January.
00:13For many families buying firewood and supplies, it's nearly impossible, and they have found that garbage is their only salvation against the harsh weather.
00:23Several humanitarian organizations warn of a possible increase in illnesses caused by low temperatures, overexposure, and contact with solid waste.
00:33At least nine children have died from the intense cold this winter in Gaza, according to the STRIPS Ministry of Health, including a 27-day-old girl who died of hypothermia over the weekend.
00:46Today, firewood is around seven, eight shekels, and we have no income, no employees in the authority or the government.
00:57My house is gone, and my kids were wounded, and my situation is miserable. I came to collect some plastics to save us some money.
01:05Life is very hard, to the extent that we cannot buy firewood, and we cannot buy gas.
01:16We cannot even have a cup of tea. My husband has to collect plastic in the morning, or paper or stuff from the streets so that we can live, and cook, and make a cup of tea, and feed our kids, and live.
01:32This is very harmful. It is all smoke. And diseases. But we are forced to use it. Because we have no income at all. We do it to live. And to eat. And to live. This is our life. No income. No money. No covers. No winter clothes.
01:57I swear, all night we are sick from the cold. There are no clothes to keep us warm. There are no clothes to keep us warm. We do not sleep at night from the cold.
02:10So, like this.
02:11Calls to be shipped or food.
02:12I swear, all night, it'll come close.
02:13So, there are no clothes.
02:14It's very for you.
02:15It's not so fun.
02:16This is sound like cal중ive and gross, cold water-coats.
02:17And this is not so hard.
02:18This is damage, honey.
02:19I swear, all I swear, it's okay underneath.
02:20So, there are no clothes and wet lights.
02:21There are no clothes.
02:22You can keep us warm.
02:23I swear, all I swear, everything.
02:25The clothes is I swear, every place is not.
02:30Once, from the underwear is not even standard from the treatment service!
02:32It only does not have a coat and I swear
