When Israel destroyed Gaza’s courts, legal protections for women vanished
The decimation of Gaza’s judicial system has left hundreds of thousands of women unable to claim inheritance, get a divorce, or retain custody of their children. “That is the reality of women in Gaza. We are abandoned,” says Maysoun, a mother of two.
It’s truly heartbreaking to read about the loss of these protections. The impact on women’s rights in Gaza is a critical issue that needs continued attention.
